Did losing weight help you regain fertility?
I hope it's okay to post here but I often feel alone because most people don't understand. I am not pregnant but my main reason for wanting to lose weight is to get pregnant, with a girl hopefully. I'm almost 27 (in 2 days yay?) I'm paranoid I'm running out of time. I've been married over 10 years and trying the whole…

Starting new exercises
I'd like to start new exercises to keep my health up and I am newly pregnant. I am thinking of starting simply by going for walks and some stretching. I have some back exercises I am supposed to be doing as well that I think should be fine to do/add. I'll start very light. Anyone have any routines they like? I know the…

Did your hip structure change at all?
Hello! This is my first pregnancy so everything is super new and foreign to me. Those of you that have gone through it, did your hips change at all? I don't mean extra padding, weight gain, etc. I'm talking the structure of the bones themselves. Did your hips get wider? Did you notice, if you made it back down to pre…

Food Ideas?
We’ve already eaten out twice this week, and I’m only 6 weeks along. 😣 When I start feeling this deep tiredness of pregnancy I never want to cook, but if I feel well I want to eat good food. 😆 Any ideas for EASY and yet healthy (minimally processed, lots of veggies) meals I can have in my arsenal? I’m thinking maybe…

Calories for third trimester
I'm gaining faster than I wanted to so I downloaded MFP again. Is it true you need 2,400 calories for the third trimester and if you burn some off should you eat what you burned? I'm 27 weeks and 2 days so almost to the third. I am trying my best to not gain over 40 at the most but hopefully 35. I gained 60 with my…

Hi! I’m 10 weeks pregnant and overweight. This is my 3rd pregnancy, but lost my first at week 22 . This is the first time I’m overweighted during a pregnancy so I went to the nutritionist. She told me to try to hold my weight and gain some just on 2nd & 3rd trimester. I must gain 15 pounds all pregnancy long

Unwelcome Comments
I think that I may be someone who is too susceptible to being effected by what others say to me about my appearance. A friend touched my belly a week or two ago without asking (after babysitting for us so we could go out for our anniversary) and told me it was "still squishy." I think she was comparing me to a friend who…
