My obgyn and I were cracking jokes about it the whole appointment. He said that since I gained three cup sizes I should think about how many "cups of coffee" that is and how much it might weigh. lol Not sure what that means but we both thought it was funny at the time.

I'm thinking when I go in next week I'll have gained at least 6 pounds in a month. Oops.

Hehe, my OB and I were joking about that, too. She said that she was sure that all of my weight gain was in my boobs. She laughed and said that one of the perks of pregnancy was "free breast enhancement"

Yes, it was the same for me 8 pounds in one month. We should start a club!

He did say that some women gain crazy amounts of fluid weight and he said that if you are already experiencing some swelling at the end of the work day, etc. that it doesn't come until you have at least 15 pounds of fluid weight--which also helps with the breast enhancement

I hadn't gained any weight between my December appt and when I went this month. I think I will be making up for it this next month!

LOL

I just started having swelling in my feet/ankles/calves. Believing that 15 of these pounds are fluid makes me feel SO MUCH better. True or not, I'll take it!

I'm jealous of you ladies! I go every two weeks and gained 8 pounds in 2 WEEKS! My Dr weighed me on 2 scaled to make sure it was right, since I've had such steady gaining thus far. I go back on Feb 11th, and she said we'll look into it more then if I've gained a lot again. Baby boy is measuring 3 weeks ahead, too so we'll see!

Last time, I was two weeks ahead then I gained 8 pounds in 4 weeks and now I'm measuring right at my week. According to them, I've gained over 25 pounds this pregnancy. According to me, I've gained 32 pounds from my ideal pre-pregnancy weight.

With three more months left to go, I have no expectations of modest weight gain and I don't think I care. I'm mostly amazed at the lack of control I have over my body lol.

Yes, I definitely have a kadonkadonk and my thighs have grown quite a bit. I wish there were a funny word for chunky thighs
