Hi ladies, just wanted to say hi. I've been using this for a little while now and was thinking "man, this would be a lot more fun if I had some friends on here to hold me accountable..." and then I realized I've never posted in the community before! So. Hello!
My current baby is due at the end of July, and it'll be my 3rd in just over 3 years. Whew. (I also have an 8 year old, so this makes #4.) I've been hanging out at about 10-15 pounds overweight for a few years now, so I'd love to lose that after baby!
I've got the right mindset right now, and I know it. After my first baby, I was down 20 pounds below prepregnancy weight within just a couple of months, so I know I can do it. I'm feeling really good and positive about fitness these days, and looking to not just "lose the baby weight," but actually be healthy and toned. Looking forward to conversing with you all!

Welcome to the group. Look forward to hearing more from you! Seem like the "how much weight have you gained" thread stays the most active. A couple people do weekly weigh ins there, and sometimes we might get a little distracted with other chit chat too Feel free to add there if you want that type of accountability.
I am on my first so it will be nice having another of you wiser experienced ladies around0 -
Hey Girl! Welcome to the group. Congrats on your pregnancy. I love your positive attitude!
I'm thirty weeks preggo with baby #3, due June 8th. I also have a 12 yr old and 10 yr old. This one is our surprise baby. Lol Would love to have another experienced mama as a friend. Please feel free to add me!3 -
Hi there! I am already friends with you lovely ladies - so heres my story - I am 26 weeks and its my first baby. My husband and I didn't think we could conceive given our ages (I am 47 he is a few years older - he has 3 kids from a prev marriage all in their 20's) When we tried fertility treatments there was a very low (5%) chance IVF would work so we walked away from that.... that was 4 years ago! At the time I think we were both super stressed since we had very active careers. Spontaneous pregnancy happened when I was off work and focusing on me and our lives ! Couldn't be happier4
