Posted last two weeks... definitely higher than I would have liked.2 -
@rachelcalsbeek We finally decided on Mina. It is hard because we come from different countries and live in Germany which isn’t the birth country of either of us so we must find a name that is pretty international or at least easy to spell and pronounce. Since no one outside of my birth country can pronounce my name right 😅
But girls, something horrible happened. I found a tick on my stomach a week ago. My husband removed it and it was small but I am soooo scared now since I read that if I do get borreliossis from the bite it could cause problems with the baby. And I won’t have any symptoms for 2-3 weeks, but I got a fever today that didn’t last long but I am still freaked out 😩 I just started finally feeling pregnant and looking forward to the baby and everything and than this happens 😤
Oh my gosh, so scary! I hope it's just a scare and everything works out.
PS Mina is a beautiful name.0 -
@karen_thinmint Thank you 😊 It’s been 3 weeks and i have symptoms of a cold but without a fever, but my daughter had the same and she is still coughing, my husband says he has a sore throat as well so I am pretty sure it’s not from the tick. If I don’t get any other symptoms in the next two weeks that I’m quite positive that everything is ok.
I have had a hungry week, gained 2 lbs basically because we had guests every day and they were all bringing chocolate, which is my biggest weakness! 😩 Today is the first day where I managed to get back on track. Plus I have started working out again since I finally feel good (apart from the sore throat and coughing) 💪
I will make this pregnancy a lot better than the first! 😁1 -

I weigh myself every morning and it did get up to 190.4 earlier in the week one day but hasn't been up that high since. One more week to go! It's so weird knowing when I'm going to have the baby. I was having some crampy contractions last night and I thought maybe it was labor, so I got my hospital bag all thrown together, and packed a bag for my 3 year old to go to grandma's house, but then the contractions stopped
Boo. My braxton hicks normally just feel like tightening, with no cramps. so I got a little excited.

Do you all increase calories intentionally to start gaining? I've been struggling to hit 2k lately because of the indigestion and nausea with eating more than a small portion, but I know that weight gain needs to start soon. I'm hoping the digestive stuff clears up as 2nd tri starts, but wondering if anyone else found solutions while struggling with morning sickness/ related in earlier weeks. Or do you just not worry and it takes care of itself? Maybe I should ask my midwife...2 -
@hesn92 Wow! You are almost there! I’m sure the baby will come in the next couple days 😁
@noel2fit I actually don’t add calories but do go over the target sometimes. But I shouldn’t gain more than 15 lbs to Beginn with so it’s fine for me. I would talk to the midwife or dr and ask what they think. As I know you should add 200-300 cal in the second trimester and 300-500 in the third. I’m on week 21. Started calorie counting after I had gained about 10 lbs. That was 5 weeks ago. Since than I’m on maintenance calories and I have maintained. I did gain 2 lbs but that was because I went waaaaay overboard with food and we had guests for 4 days straight and they all brought chocolate which I of course ate a bunch of. Since than I went back to maintenance and got back on track.

@hesn92 woo-hoo! You are almost there!!! My weight is all over the place now, and I dont even have swelling. A few weeks ago, I gained 2.5 pounds overnight, then it went away. That same week my Dr. Office said I had lost weight since my previous week. Today, I am suddenly down 1.5 pounds and I have another Dr. Appt.
@noel2fit I didn't intentionally increase calories. My MS ended around 16 weeks and my appetite naturally increased around 18 weeks. If you are eating healthy, I think it is normal to not gain much in the 1st trimester. You should talk to your Midwife about it though.
@sardelsa You are doing great! Are you all moved into your new house? Did you set up your gym or are you done for the rest of this pregnancy?1 -
@KellyBgetsfit
Sounds like you are doing well, weight fluctuations can be annoying especially with pregnancy it's like a mystery what is going on sometimes!
We are moved into our temporary house (while our new one is being renovated) the gym room has all the stuff all over the place but it is not set up yet, so I can't really do much there! But I might try to squeeze in a band or cardio workout today just to get things moving. I still feel good so I want to get my workouts in while I can!

I know I've been doing badly this month, not throwing up and appetite back has definitely shown on scale.... but one of the doctors I saw on rotation yesterday told me to "lay off the bagels". After admitting my weight gain overall is fine, I just gained too much this past month and should "stay away from carbs" until it corrects itself. That just seems like weird advice. I mean cut down sure, low carb while pregnant = weird. And terribly rude phrasing for a pregnant woman already disappointed with a bad gain month. Uhh.3 -
@karen_thinmint Oh my gosh, that was so rude of him! You're doing great!0

Not feeling good about my gain this week. I haven't been tracking, but I've been loosely keeping track of my calorie intake. I thought I did well this week, but I'm not happy with how much I gained (again).

I haven’t been keeping track til recently but I’m 28weeks and have gained 8kg approx which is about 17.6lbs I think? I had 12kgs to loose pre preg though, I am aiming not not gain more than 11.5 kg (25lb) and then try and loose the whole 24kg after birth.1
-
@karen_thinmint That seems a bit ridiculous since your overall gain is perfectly healthy! The idea that gain should be linear is nonsense anyway- it's totally normal for it to happen in bursts and spurts.

Well I did it, stayed under 35 lbs. I’m down to 175 and it keeps dropping every day. Was hoping I’d drop a much bigger chunk of weight after giving birth lol. Baby was born a week ago on 7/29 via c section. Recovery has been rough and painful esp with being enslaved to this tiny human, but he’s such a cutie and even his big brother seems to like him pretty well.4 -
@hesn92 Congratulations!!!! I hope you are enjoying your bundle of joy!!!! 33 lbs is awesome. I have heard that you lose slower with csection because they have to put air in your abdomen. Rest as much as you can and don't worry about your weight until you feel better.
@karen_thinmint I started eating more around 18 weeks too! I know I was up 6 pounds by Dr. scale, but only 4 by mine, and then was down by 2 the next time. My dr. said it is normal to have growth spurts. I am sorry they made you feel bad.1 -

I am teacher and just went back to work for 4 weeks. I have 3 Dr.s appts a week now- two NST and Biophysicals a week. I don't think I am going to stick to my 25 pound goal, but I am ok with that. I know this has been my healthiest pregnancy as far as eating and working out so I feel good about that. I will be induced at 38 weeks and I am hoping all my walking helps the induction go faster!!!1 -

I can tell hunger is kicking up finally. Even the indigestion seems better. I stuffed my face this weekend! Honestly, it felt glorious!0 -
I am 28 weeks with pregnancy 4! I did start overweight. Between week 1-12 I lost 30lbs from diet change and slight nausea. Since then I have only gained 3.5 lbs. I am trying to stick with only gaining the minimum 10lbs suggested for overweight women, with respect to my and my son's health.1
-
Officially 37 weeks! I am up 28lbs from start weight, I am gaining around 1lb a week pretty steadily now. I am very happy with my gain and physique at this point as well. I am not working out as much but lots of moving around, gentle yoga and walking
