December 2016 Moms to Be?

merisaOct3

33 y/o Ohio working mom-to-be, due in December with my first baby (I'm 16 weeks today). Looking to connect with other women to stay accountable, check in, and share information. I had stopped using MFP for a few months, but I'm feeling way off track and just want to make sure that my eating stays nutritious and reasonable.

Hi. Welcome to the pregnancy forum. I'm 37 and on my 3rd....another boy. lol. I'm also a working mom. I was on MFP prior to being pregnant trying to lose some poundage from my 1st two pregnancies and quitting smoking (like 10 years ago). I'm active in the forum and check my friends on here, but I no longer log except a day or two a week just to make sure I'm where I think I am calorie and nutrient wise. I've been struggling with too little protein and too much sugar.

Since I'm old and had a 10lb baby with blood sugar issues I'm trying to be a little healthier this pregnancy while not stressing too much. Welcome and congratulations.

Thanks @enterdanger . I was active on MFP from Jan. 2014 to end of 2015 and lost about 35+ lbs in that time. I took a break bc it was too much with TTC (took us a while).
I just got back on here bc I was struggling w overeating again and worried about gaining too much.

Hello! I am 30 and from So Cal. I am 20 weeks pregnant (EDD 12/16) with my second baby girl. My daughter is about to be 1.5 and I did not lose all the baby weight before getting pregnant again so I am having a hard time and feeling awful about the way I look. I did well working out at the very beginning of this pregnancy but have been awful the last few months. Hoping to get back on track and minimize the weight gain for the rest of the pregnancy!

I see this isn't really active, but I'm here. Currently 32 weeks with 2nd baby (3rd pregnancy). I was close to pre-pregnancy weight before finding out I was expecting, but am excited non-the-less. How are you all feeling?

I feel like a fat kid. I'm 29 weeks. which would technically make me due in January, but since I have to have a section I'm pushing for the last week of December instead of the first week of January since I have childcare then. Gotta see what the doc says.

I feel good except I've hit the point where once second I'm starving and the next I take 1 bite of food and feel like I'm so full I'll puke. Good times.
