Monday Weigh-in PW: 167.4 CW: 168.4 Ick a slight gain but I'm thinking it's a bit of water weight. Was camping over the weekend and had some salty camping type meals. Nice loss @HorsesRock9999 @ljdanny where in Canada are you visiting, have you traveled their before? It feels like summer this week so going to take…

Weigh-In Day: Monday PW:168.8 CW:167.4 Great job everyone @shnkrnrynn - wow that's crazy - what city are you in? I"m in Edmonton (there's been so much rain here the last few months, still doesn't totally feel like summer is here) @BodyTalking - hope you had a better week. I get into funks too and it's tough to get yourself…

Weigh In Day: Monday PW 172 CW 168.8 Nice loss @seltzer_lover @shnkrnrynn - love the graph and thanks for the introduction @HorsesRock9999 and @minstrelofsarcasm I'm new here and even though this isn't the best time to start the challenge I want to keep some kind of accountability. I'm from Alberta and a full time RN, wife…

Hi group. I'm Joann and new to this group and the challenges. I'm excited to be part of a community as I find it helps keep me motivated and focused. I'm a mom and full-time nurse from Alberta Canada. With summer approaching and my garden growing I think this is a great time to start and have some fresh produce to keep me…

I am 5 weeks PP and had the same. I had a vaginal delivery with my daughter being sunny side up and was a fast pusher. This was not something I was prepared for after delivery. I still leak when I cough and at times when I'm about to go to the bathroom my bladder spasms. All I've heard is Kegels - kegels and more of them.…

Thanks for the website. I'm finding it harder and harder as the days go on dealing with everyone asking. I'll be a week overdue tomorrow and hope to see this little one soon. There is really not much more to get ready for the baby and trying to enjoy this quiet time but it's definitely testing me.
-
Thanks Tiggerhammon - I didn't realize that I should have started this before my due date so this weekend will be busy and I'm not going to really panic or change my plans for delivery with induction for a while but was really shocked that I have to consider this. My Dr. doesn't normally use pitocin and would rather use…

I'm at 38 weeks and have gained 20lbs, my Dr. has been happy with the gain. I'm ready to meet this little person and my sleep has been really poor the last few weeks it's been affecting my healthy eating and wanting more sugar but the end is so close.
-
We are in the home stretch moms !! For me this pregnancy feels like it's taken forever but at the same time I only have 7 more weeks left. Eeeks! So far I've gained 15lbs at 33 weeks. I almost failed by sugar test so have been more mindful of what I'm eating and the scale hasn't been moving as fast compared to before. We…

It looks like a small group here hope it picks up with the spring coming up. Well I'm not planning on losing any weight for another 10weeks. that's when Baby is to arrive. So far I've gained 15lbs and I've been happy about it but starting to really feel pregnant. I'm more short of breath, my belly is getting in the weigh…
-
Happy I found your discussion. I was told by my OB that I just about failed my test by 0.1 points and now I have to watch what I eat. I was totally shocked as GD doesn't run in my family and I've been active and eating well. I have a lot more reading to do about the GD diet and the changes i need to make Thanks gals - also…

Don't stress yourself out too much Tigger - first not good for baby to have a stressed out mom and second if your not taking in enough calories your baby will be taking nourishment from your bones, organs, teeth ect. which in the future can bring long lasting problems. One other thing is you don't want a low birth weight…

While I understand everyone will gain at different rates and amounts I haven't been cringing at the sight of the scale. I'l actually curious how my body will change and adapt to this pregnancy. I've been active swimming and walking and feeling really good. Week 23 - up 10 lbs Interesting though is that I've averaged 1 lbs…
-
I"m at 20 weeks and up 5lbs. Dr. is not worried as I'm sure I'll be going up now that baby's job is to gain weight. Still in a few of my PMS jeans but they are getting slightly uncomfortable. I have a few prego jeans but somehow holding off on wearing them, not sure why but the idea of not wearing a belt for the next 5+…

I hear you Brain - I find I wake up hungry in the middle of the night and need a snack. Perhaps you are not eating enough during the day? I find that when I exercise and have a active day I'm hungrier than normal and need to eat more than my calorie goals. So far it's been working for with with the night hunger and haven't…

Great read. Will bump for when I'm further along

woops wrong post

Don't beat yourself too much Mommy. You've been doing great up till now and it's only a short hick-up. I've been going through the same thing the last 2 weeks. Think I"m telling myself that because I can have a few more calories they can be sugar and food I don't normally eat. Just pick up and keep positive. This is such a…

Last 2 weeks I cannot stop eating everything in sight. Gained 2 lbs in the last 2 weeks. Will have to get back to a better eating plan. I"m not eating for 2 - I"m not eating for 2 - I'm not eating for 2. . . ..

Had my first prenatal yoga class today and loved it. My instructor really focused on connecting with your body and with baby. I highly recommend it. I found it really allowed me to slow down and focus on clearing my mind plus it was good to be in a room with lots of women going through the same experience.

Haven't gained any weight at 13 weeks waiting for the scale to jump up one day to show I'm growing also not showing very much can't wait for a bigger bump.

I was on thyroid medication for hypothyroid and my dr. Is following me closely while pregnant. The dose I was on for over a year had to be increased last week. Think my body is working harder to grow the baby demanding more energy and with hormone shifts that could be part of it. I'm no medical professional on this topic…

I love swimming and have been going about 2 x/week perpregnancy along with long walks either on the treadmill or with the dog. I love swimming, it really helps me clear my head when all you hear is your breathing and the water. I'm excited I can keep doing it and know it's a great workout with no impact to the baby. One…

I was thinking the exact same thing today. I saw on Thyme Maternity if you like them on Facebook you get one article of clothing for 50% off but then realized if I did that everyone would wonder why I like a maternity store. So that will have to wait. But if your family know's that may be a good place to look for a…

I'm in the same boat Lady Lamb. I've been eating maintenance for the last month and some days I just blow it on ice cream and cookies. So far it's happened about 3 times but I"m not sure if it's because I feel I can go crazy or hormones. I am keeping active so I hope I'm eating enough to cover my burn but want to only gain…
-
Thanks for sharing your story IndianMuslim. I saw my family Dr. earlier this week and had a choice to do a chromosomal test at week 12. Never thought I would have to think about that right now. I'm hoping to use the same OB my sister had since she loved having her for her 2. Excited to hear the heart beat but that will…
-
I'm happy that I"m not feeling too bad for the most part. No MS or nausea but wow when 2:00 hits I crash and by 9:00 I am dead tired. I'm trying to get up early and go for a walk as I find it gives me a good boost of energy for the day plus I find I eat better through the day. One thing I didn't realize was how sore my…
