    Height: 5' 11"
    Age: 34
    First Pregnancy
    Goal to Gain: 25-30lb

    Starting weight: 169 lb
    Week 14: 05/04: 172.8 (+3.8, +3.8)
    Week 15: 05/11: 176.0 (+3.2, +7)
    Week 16: 5/18: 178.4 (+2.4, + 9.4)
    Week 18: 6/1: 179.4 (+1, +10.4)
    Week 19: 6/8: 182 (+2.6, +13)
    Week 20: 6/15: 181.2 (-0.8, +12.2)

    @VeryKatie so glad to hear everything is looking good! You are so close now.

    I had my anatomy scan earlier this week. Baby is healthy and strong and everything looked really good. We did discover that I have complete placenta previa. I am now on restricted activity for 8 weeks, so I can't really work out, among other things. I was sad and scared to hear this news, especially after my doctor told me all of the potential risks, but I'm just taking it day by day and praying for a healthy baby and that my darn placenta moves to its proper place. I've seen a lot of stories where people's placenta previa went away, and this gives me hope and helps me stay positive when the anxiety starts to creep in. I know we are focused more on fitness here but if anyone has any advice on this matter, I'd love to hear it.

    I was diagnosed with placenta previa at the beginning og my anatomy scan and by the end if the scan it had moved and it was no longer deemed a problem!! Fingers crossed, urs will move too xx

I don't want his special day to be eclipsed by another birthday (but I don't have much control​ over it, I know!)

    This website might help you out.
    I am 31 weeks and have gained almost 12 lbs. But with my first pregnancy I gained 35 lbs total and gained around 10 lbs the first trimester. We are all different and each pregnancy we have is different. Best wishes!! Just keep eating healthy and exercising and your body will do what it needs to keep tu and your lil ones healthy :)

    Thank you so much for the link! I've been looking for something like this for ages to keep track of how much is a healthy amount to put on week by week. So far I've put on 10 lb and I'm currently 19 weeks (which is supposed to be a normal amount according to the calculator). This is my second pregnancy and I'm really worried about not putting on so much this time around. I put on about 50 lb in my last pregnancy and I struggled to lose it afterwards. I am also worried about losing the weight afterwards as I really want to be able to breastfeed baby no. 2 (I tried and failed so breastfeed baby no. 1 so I was able to diet and not have to worry about how it would affect milk production).

    Does anyone have any helpful tips to losing weight while breastfeeding?
