But, then we decided to try to conceive baby #2 and we are having some difficulties. So my doc put me on hormones. And I gained 9lbs back
![:'( :'(](https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/resources/emoji/cry.png)
Its such a mind f*** to try and balance or choose between cutting calories to lose weight or not. After gaining so much during my 1st pregnancy I went through awful Postpartum Depression.
I do not want to experience that again.
In a perfect world if someone asked me what I wanted more, a second baby or to be at my goal weight, I'd choose the baby...
Lord give me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change and the courage change the things I can.

Maybe try changing your focus. Instead of focusing on a certain number, try to work on healthy habits that can be sustainable throughout your next pregnancy to keep the pregnancy weight in check. Making tracking a habit if it isn't already, get into a moderate exercise routine with strength training and walking. If they become habits now and you can keep it up through the pregnancy, you'll probably feel a lot better about yourself when it's over.0
