This month of due dates is just barely getting started, and I though about joining the Oct thread... but here goes! I got my (faint) BFP today, and figure my due date is about 8 or 9 Nov. Exciting!

    I just found out today that I am expecting my second as well. I am assuming we will be due Nov 3 :) Very exciting but very nervous about weight gain. I have lost 70 lbs over the past year so I am discouraged with gaining weight. I plan to eat very healthy and stay within my calories! What will be, will be. GOOD LUCK TO US ALL!! :)

    I'm due November 12. This will be baby number 6. Does anyone else plan on still losing weight?

    I'm no doctor, but I don't know that you'd find anyone to recommend pregnancy as a time to lose weight. That said, I think it's realistic that you don't gain a whole lot, especially if you are considerable overweight, as long as you're eating a healthy diet. I think most of us have set our calorie goal to maintenance at this point
    Congratulations on number 6 :)

    Don't know how to quote? ^^^^^^

    My doctor has given me the all clear to continue losing weight. I don't intend on losing a great amount, but would like to be smaller at delivery then I am now. :)

    I used to have my calories set to loosing 2 lbs a week, and I changed it to loosing 1 - so that gives me a few more calories but makes me feel like I'm still "dieting". I figure it will even out with extra water weight. I hope to gain no weight, or even loose a pound or two through the first trimester. 2nd and 3rd I will give myself a few more calories again and just try to eat healthy and not end up gaining a ton. Of course, you know how the best laid plans go haha. I say, with good food and excercise as tolerated, it's ok to be loosing "fat" pounds while at the same time gaining "baby" pounds. But, everyone is different and an important factor is what your pre-pregnancy weight was.

    I found out earlier this week that I'm expecting my first child most likely Nov 12th (still to be confirmed).

    4lbs out of the total 7lbs I've lost so far were actually lost during the first few weeks of my pregnancy. I really didn't have that much to lose to start with, maybe like 10lbs...so it's probably best for me to not trying to keep losing. I'm upping my calories to maintain my weight for the first trimester.

    This is sort of a shock to me. I can't say we were actively trying, but I wasn't really trying to prevent it either, and sort of entertaining the idea of trying in a couple months. Seeing the two pink lines totally caught me off guard.

    I'm still getting used to the idea that a baby is normally the end result of a pregnancy (I really did think I understood this...really).

    Hello all! I have just found out I am 6 weeks pregnant & had my 1st child 3 months ago lol. I am loving myfitnesspal! And somehow gotta figure out how to use to and not gain the 70 pounds I did with my daugter.... I had 18 more pounds to go to be back at pre pregnancy weight, so this is going to be interesting. Glad I found this group on here! Due date Nov 8th :-)

    I got a + on March 10th with an EDD of November 20th!! We are shocked, but excited. This is #3 for us :) My first appt isn't until April 30th and I will be almost 11 weeks then. Congrats everyone!! I had wanted to lose more weight before I got pregnant again, but hubby had a lapse of judgement and I took advantage of it...I didn't know when the chance would come again! :wink: I only gained 25-30 pounds with my other pregnancies, but I'm still planning on watching things a lot closer this time around with eating and staying active.

    Congratulations! It looks like we have the same EDD!! I got my first positive on March 12th! I am hoping that I can keep away from the 'eating for two' food trap and not overindulge in an unhealthy way through this pregnancy. Super excited!!
