Congrats!! Yay! Well for me early on I didn't need to
add too much calories I was eating about what you eat
but lately my nausea seems to go away when I snack more
throughout the day so needless to say I had to listen to my body.
So far I've gained 2lbs but it may be water weight cause I have
been bad w my water intake. That's what I need to work
on is drinking my water. How far along are you?

Thanks ladies!!
I am not exactly sure how far along I am. According to the advice nurse about 5 weeks along. So still very, very early. I don't see the doctor until the 22nd. Stupid Kaiser!!
I am just so scared about gaining too much weight. I still had so much weight to lose and this pregnancy was so unexpected. I am thinking that maybe I should change my calories to maintenance calories and see what happens. i still plan to exercise at least 5 times a week. Although I can't do Insanity anymore. I will continue walking until I see the doctor and see what she says.0 -
Okay, Just out of curiosity I've had one
strange craving so far that kinda happened
by accident. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE those
Hot Mama pickles from the theaters well
recently I had one that I brought home cause
those suckers can take days to finish. Well
I just so happen to like sunflower kernels
also well I happened to have them within
minutes of each other and now I crave them
together so what I've been doing is putting the
kernels in the juice of the pickle DH thinks it's so
gross. haha
but i'm just curious anyone else had any strange cravings?
I guess I would like to know that i'm not that weird.
I've had friends who have had cravings things like
potato chips and ketchup, crackers and ketchup,
and soft serve ice cream w fries.0 -

Hey ladies,
My husband and I just found on Friday that we are expecting our first child :-) Prior to getting pregnant I was eating 1200 calories to lose weight, so now I don't know how many calories to eat. Can someone please help me out. I know that I probably need to eat more than 1200 calories but I just don't know how many more. I am not really hungry these days so do I need to force myself to eat or can I go with what my body tells me?
Thanks!
Welcome and congrats! I did not increase my calories until 11 weeks to maintenance, I was also eating 1200. I was fine on that, but I did eat my extra exercising calories. I had not done that previously. It worked great for me. I only gained 5 or so pounds which I am happy w/. Some of those pounds were gained on a trip dh and I went on at 5 weeks along.0 -

I will continue walking until I see the doctor and see what she says.
I set mine to maintenance around 8 weeks because I was MAJORLY fatigued. It helped some. I ate small things literally ALL day long. I actually lost a couple lbs when I bumped up to maintenance. By definition you should not gain anything if you go up to maintenance (the exception being if you eat all fats and would thus still put on some fat, or if you have been eating far too little for your body and your body hoards calories once coming out of any starvation mode). Providing 1200 has been a healthy deficit for you jumping to maintenance should have no ill effects, other then the scale might stop for a while. If you feel fine and dont want to eat maintenance you can eat somewhere in between your 1200 and maintenance. It also has to do with how much you have to lose. I could get by w/out losing any more, so I definitely needed to bump up to maintenance. I eat my 1990 + exercise calories (most of the time) so I am usually around 2400 or 2500. If I'm not feeling it I don't eat them all. I had (have :ohwell: ) evening sickness more than any other time of day so sometimes I'd opt for some toast and call it a night. I'm 13 weeks and change and put on maybe an lb so far. Currently I am still eating at maintenance but if I go over 100 or 200 cals every couple days I'm OK with it. And I always eat if I am hungry, despite what I have left in my count.
You also say you can't do insanity any more? "Can't" ? If you are used to it, you can keep it up. You might find you have to lower the intensity a little just to what you are comfortable with, but you can keep up exercise routines that you were doing. I was doing P90x for the first almost 8 weeks of my preg. I ended up stopping since I was so fatigued it was detrimental (I was literally falling asleep in the middle of the day at my desk!), but I kept up all my morning gym cardio (I just have found I feel better keeping my heart rate about 15-20 points lower than what my max used to be). I feel that now I could start back up P90x if I wanted to, but I don't want to - mostly because my house is freezing and I prefer to go to the gym and I have been trying to get to sleep earlier and used to do P90x at night. But health wise - yeah, I could kick back in the P90X if I wanted and do fine pregnancy wise.0 -

That's the other thing I was thinking to eat the exercise calories along with the 1200. I am not really hungry at all these days. I just get sooo tired. Today all day I have had no energy to do anything.
Thanks for your help!0 -

I started Insanity less than two weeks prior to finding out I am pregnant. So I don't know if my body was already used to it. I talked to the advice nurse and she suggested I stop doing it. I am waiting until I see my doctor to find out everything. Because this is my first pregnancy and I have no seen a doctor yet I don't really want to risk it. And the other thing is that I noticed that I am so tired all the time. I am continuing to exercise though. Today I walked for over an hour and burned about 420 calories.
For the calories you're right, I will continue eating the 1200 but I will also eat the exercise calories and see how that makes me feel. So far I am not hungry at all just so tired all the time.
Thanks for your help though!!0 -
Hello Ladies! Glad to see that everyone is
doing well. That Chinese predictor site
is really fun thanks for the link dragonfly!
According to that i am having a boy so
we shall see. So, on Friday I had my
first U/S and I got to see a little heartbeat
i was in tears unfortunately DH couldn't
be there but the tech told me that the next
U/S he should come to and that he'll be able
to see much more Seeing that heartbeat took
all my fears away. I had some early bleeding and
clotting so I was really on edge for the month of
November. I'm finding that snacking often throughout
the day really helps my nausea so i am trying to
keep the snacks as healthy as possible.
I started my exercise back up on Saturday my stationary
bike that is and I really want to incorporate some weights
now.
Happy Monday All!:flowerforyou:
You're welcome! Glad to see you are doing well. Great job with the exercise.0 -
Im back! Back to logging my food again after a month break. I gained 8 lbs in the first 10 wks! So I have to be careful. Main reason was anything that wasnt a carb made me sick. I used to eat salads alot...now I hate them. Any suggestions on what veggies to eat?0

I had to quit doing Insanity too and I was on my 2nd round and half way through the first month. Their was so much jumping around that I was getting stomach cramps really really bad and it dehydrated me too much so I completely understand needing to quit. I also found that when I was done with my insanity workout, I couldn't even function anymore which is totally not normal for me after a workout and with Insanity, their really isn't much room for modification!!
My doctor also told me that if it is making me feel that crappy, it's not something I should be doing basically. I am now doing Turbo Jam and keeping it high intensity but low impact and then Chalene Extreme 3 days a week for lifting with some Yoga and walking a couple times a week. I'm still exhausted, but at least I don't feel like death afterwords :laugh:0 -
Hey ladies. Question. Have any of you had cramping in your early pregnancy? I am on week 5 right now and I have had a lot of cramping the last couple of days like I would before I started my period. I havn't had any spotting or blood though. Is this something that is normal or something I should be worried about? I have my first dr. apt. next monday so I have been really anxious imaging that something is wrong... did you guys do that too? I havn't had morning sickness yet. My breasts have been more tender than usual, I have to pee all the time and I am really tried but I feel like those things are hard to know if they are from pregnancy.0

With Kaiser you have to attend a prenatal registration class before you are seen. At this class you go over nutrition and they tell you what you can and can't eat. They also do all of your lab work so that by the time you have your first appointment they have all of the information. The class is super helpful so make sure to attend. This is my 3rd baby I will be having at Kaiser and they have been WONDERFUL with all of the pregnancies.0 -

My breasts have been more tender than usual, I have to pee all the time and I am really tried but I feel like those things are hard to know if they are from pregnancy.
I actually asked the same exact question a couple weeks ago. Apparantly it is very normal! I still get the cramps from time to time now but they definitely aren't near as intense as the were the first 2 weeks. And all your other symptoms are the exact same as mine. I still haven't gotten morning sickness yet (and considering myself lucky). I go in for my next ultrasound on friday tho and they said they will see the heartbeat then, so if everything is ok for me then, hopefully it's all good for you too!0 -

The cramping is something that I have had on and off throughout the pregnancy thus far. My m/s didn't kick in until right around the late 7th to early 8th week so it can still come. It only lasted until about week 14 or 15. The doctors say cramping is normal as long as there is no bleeding, I went it for that because I was worried after having a m/c earlier this year. Peeing all of the time is absolutely the funest part, lol... it slows down in the second trimester, thank god! Since it is not your first pregnancy you will probably have a lot more round ligament pain as the baby grows which can be very painful.0 -

Okay thanks. I am feeling better... I will feel MUCh better after going to the dr. monday but at least I know its normal! I thought maybe something was wrong because I havn't had morning sickness yet but I guess I may just not be far enough along. This is my first actually which I think is why I am so worried about it all. I have had to pee about every hour right now... which as a teacher is rough because I can't leave my kids till we have a break!0 -

This is normal, it should be off and on mild cramping. That is implantation cramps from what I understand. I cramped in weeks 5 and a little in 6.
I'm 23 weeks and my right ovary area still cramps periodically. Around the time I would have start my period. The body does weird things.0 -

Hopefully you will be one of the fortunate ones like me and not get morning sickness. I haven't had it with any of my pregnancies. I did however experience the period like cramping you are speaking of with a couple of them.0 -
I have had cramping in early weeks w/ some of mine. It is very normal.0

Just checking in still trying hopefully this month will be my lucky month if not my doctor is going to send us to another doctor about 2 or more hours from where we live. I've lost around 50 pounds so I don't know what they excuse will be now.0

Hello everyone
I just wanted to post to say hello and introduce myself. I am 26 years old and weigh about 250lbs! This is the most ever… I am pretty ashamed!
Anyways, I am so scared something could go wrong with my pregnancy as I let myself gain so much weight before getting pregnant. I just found out last night I am 4 weeks pregnant. I will not be in to see my dr for a couple of weeks probably (have to call this morning for an appt) and am not sure what to do with my calories!
Anywas, looking forward to getting to know you guys! How do I get one of those cool tickers on the bottom of my post that shows how far along I am?
Thanks!

You are soo lucky, I have been sick in all of my pregnancies. I feel that it was worse this time around with my girl than it was with my boys. I definately fell off the nutrition wagon but have gotten back on. You are doing so well with exercise and all and have gained very little weight. I can't exercise because I get contractions so I am focusing in on the calories and stuff. I set myself to maintenance. What are you doing calorie wise?0 -

Yes, I am definitely one of the fortunate ones! I had the stomach flu and few weeks back and during that I was counting my lucky stars that I never had morning sickness.
Good job getting back on the wagon. Often that is very difficult to do but you did it! You should be proud.
I am shocked at my weight gain myself. I have never had a pregnancy like this before. Although, with my first two I started in the 120s but my third I was in the 140s as well at the beginning. This is the first pregnancy I have made sure I exercised and I am sure that is a big help. I actually for the first time started getting slight contractions while walking today at a quick pace. I stopped for a couple minutes and got back to it at a slower pace and was fine. Have you thought about doing pregnancy yoga or something on the light side? I have a pregnancy yoga tape from BeachBody called "Baby on the Way." It is is slow and actually a nice enjoyable routine.
As for calories, I haven't really been watching my calories. I don't believe I am getting quite the amount I should be and should be doing a better job at my intake.0 -
Finished my 6 miles for the day and burned 724 calories. Didn't want to do it but glad I did. Had to take it a little slower today because of some discomfort.
Hope you all have a wonderful day!0 -

Congratulations! I have been heavy most of my pregnancies and around 250 +, w/ my 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th. I have had easy pregnancies and deliveries. There is nothing to be scared of, especially w/ a no fat phobic OB or a midwife.0 -

13 weeks 3 days - and i finally saw a Dr today! Well, a nurse midwife. I am glad I will be driving the extra distance for them. When I said I wanted a VBAC she said "good, you're in the right place!" So that is comforting! I am sure I will be cursing my decision for a hospital a good 45 minutes away once I am labor :laugh: but I think it will be fine. My son will be in AZ for most of the summer (he goes every year) so it's a huge relief not to have to find someone to watch him because we know no one [reliable :laugh: ] here. So that will make getting to the hospital quicker easier! They asked me if I wanted an ultrasound, but I declined because I'm pretty sure it's not covered by my insurance. Plus, blobs on the screen are not interesting to me. Wait until it looks like a baby, even then they still look like aliens.0

Hey, you seem to know all about supplements etc - I know I think at least I saw something on green tea maybe not being great for pregs? What about reg lavendar earl gray? I don't like tea really, but someone sent me some and I thought I would give it a try. It's so stinking cold here (well, only 18-35, but our house is insulated about as well as a tuna can, so...) and I'm out of hot chocolate
I thought i might try it. What's the skinny on tea and preg? 0
