Hello! I'm Serena, 33YO, pregnant with my first baby currently at about 31 weeks, due in April 2021 :] I was looking for a support group on here for healthy pregnancy weight management but couldn't find any recent ones so I decided to create a group. Feel free to post and share. Let's all be kind and supportive of each other - we are growing human beings during a global pandemic! Welcome and thanks for stopping by 💕

    Hi! I'm Torri and I'm 24. I'm currently pregnant with my second baby and due in May. I can't wait to meet her! I have a 2 year old little boy as well. With my first pregnancy I was on strict bedrest due to having multiple blood clots and I ended up delivering at 33 weeks, but this pregnancy has been completely normal thankfully! I had definitely intended on staying in the gym and being healthy throughout this pregnancy, and although I haven't eaten completely terrible, it's been extremely difficult to make it to the gym. Hopefully getting back on this app and being in a group like this will help me to get motivated and get back in the gym for at least my last trimester! So glad to have found a group like this! Also - congratulations to all you mama's. <3

    Hello, I'm 32 weeks with my third and I'm thrilled to find a pregnancy group in this app. I think it has been sorely needed since staying fit and eating healthy does look different in pregnancy. Pregnancy can also present different health challenges that aren't even a problem otherwise. I have a blood clotting disorder that cost me my first baby at birth because it was undiagnosed so, I have to take blood thinner shots through all pregnancies. And this pregnancy has presented with diet related blood sugar spikes that had to be figured out. I'm so done with being pregnant and ready to meet my little man.

    Hi, ladies! I'm almost 31 weeks pregnant with my first baby, due in May. I've been using MyFitnessPal to track my calorie and mainly protein and sugar intake for a healthier diet. I'm afraid I eat way too much fruit (which means a lot of sugar even though whole fruits are healthy) every day, so trying to keep myself in check.

    I also use FitOn app to do prenatal workout almost every day! If you have any workout or recipe tips, please do share.:)

    I'm on Instagram if anybody wants to connect @ransinlove

    Hope everybody has a healthy pregnancy and smooth labor!

    Hi everyone! I'm jacqui, pregnant with my first. Due early August. I have used MFP many times over the last 10 years or so. Wanting to track my food as I've been getting terrible heartburn and wanting to try and figure out if there is something in particular that is causing it.. looking forward to going through this with you all.

    Hi Everyone!! I'm pregnant with my first child. Today I made 5 months. I'm due at the end of August. I've been inconsistently using MFP forever. I'm making an effort to be more consistent because growing a baby is putting my body through changes. lol. You all can add me as a friend so we can keep each other on track. looking forward to going through this journey with you all.

    Hi everyone! I've been on my weight loss journey a few months now, and not lost any weight. Today I got a bfp and so that's put a stick in my gears! Hoping to manage weight loss healthily now I have no. 3 on the way 😱🙈

    Hi I am newly pregnant ad well, due December 24 (oh boy).

    Looking to have a healthy pregnancy. I cut way down on unhealthy snacks the day I found out (2 days ago now) and hope to make veggies a bigger part of my diet.

    This will be my 3rd child.

    Hi. I'm a FTM due in November.
    It's been a long time since I've tracked and BMI is 29-30 so keen to avoid excessive weight gain during this pregnancy and hopefully avoid complications.

    @bobdebob95 have you found your due date yet? You might be a week or two ahead of me. What ages are your other two children? I have a 3 (almost 4) year old and a 2 year old. I think my 3 year old son will be the most excited when we tell him we are having another baby. He isnt the cuddles kid, but he keeps asking for more babies haha.

    @missball you'll do great! Glad to see you here! The pregnancy boards have been quiet (the ones I used for my previous pregnancies) and im feeling lonely lol.

    @jacqui1612 ah Heartburn, my nemesis. For me it was anything tomato based! Which better not be the case this time cuz all I'm craving is stewed tomatoes. Like... the idea of eating them out of the can... sounds pretty dang good.

    @Size06Soon I shall add you, if that's OK! Nice to have friends going though the same things.
