Hi. Congrats! :-).

Thank you ladies. I actually have emailed him a couple times because a lot of times talking doesn't work. I do want to be supportive but I feel like he won't let me in. I agree that doing things right now isn't a great idea. I know things feel more intense. I really believe we could be happy again if he could get himself…

Almost 23 weeks & I'm up 6 pounds! :-D feeling pretty hopeful!

I agree! I started out 34 pounds heavier than I hoped which was still going to be over weight. Then had a stent on bed rest! I was freaking out! I'm only 4'11" & started at 204. I really wanted to be around 170. Thanks to logging, I've gained 6lbs so far at just about 22weeks! The scale has gone up & down a little but…

:-)

I almost drank some soda the other night to try but I was exhausted & didn't seven want to get up. I usually do drink a little soda each day. I used to drink a ton then quit for a while. I had to skip my yoga yesterday because there was noway I could have done it w the headache. I rally don't want to take meds, I never do,…

Hi. I'm 22 weeks. :-)

I can relate. I've had a miscarriage & w my 2 daughters (currently 22 weeks w second) I had bleeding w both. First at 6 weeks that lasted about 20 days & this time at 9 weeks, very heavy & lasted a few weeks. I say take it as easy as you can. And like said before, ifyou start actually bleeding, get a sono. Tale care & try…

I was kinda wondering about my second girl's weight too. With my daughter I could barely eat & she was 8lbs 7oz at 41 weeks induced then c-section. This time I can eat, although I'm being super careful about weight gain because I started out way overweight this time. So far I've gained 7lbs at 22 weeks. Also am striving…

How is everyone doing?? 17 wks & 6 days to go for me! I'm kinda worried that at 22 weeks I'm starting to feel pretty tired most days. I'm planning to start taking walks w my girl & my dog in the evening, once the heat calms down. We just finished a week of nearly 100 degrees & I've never been a fan if heat. Hoping walking…

Hope you're feeling better. I can definitely relate but keep trying to take it easy on myself. :-)

The plan was for my husband to get a vas but now he's acting reluctant & it made me realize I am done having kids. Even tho he definitely claims to be also. Unfortunately, with our relationship being so rocky I think the best bet is for me to get my tubes tied. That way I have my permanent BC even if I don't always have…

Hi! I'm def an obese mom. I'm 4'11 & 209. I won't be obese long tho. I've lost over 100lbs before & plan to kick *kitten* again once baby is here. I'm 21weeks & have gained 5lbs. Happy to be here w other moms working on their health. :-)

Sounds very interesting! I'm going to look more into it. I was actually dreaming about going into labor last night/early this morning & woke up excited & mind all over that I couldn't fall back asleep. Well not until 10 minutes before the alarm went off.

So happy to hear from everyone. I'm going to look into the spinning & hypno birthing. :-) :-) :-) :-) Ms. Wax, awesome job at maintaining your weight. I am really gonna try. KCasey, I'm not sure what a TENS machine is but I want to know more, entonox too.

Good luck to both of you! I am going for my second vbac and feeling so much more confident this time around :) Biggest factors in my vbac success last time were 1) baby positioning (see spinningbabies.org for awesome info) because a properly positioned baby generally is delivered faster, which mattered a lot since my vbac…

This pregnancy is happier for me but my last one I was so unhappy all the time I had postpartum delightment! I was so happy to not be pregnant anymore. This time I'm also excited to be unpregnant but not as desperately. I have my daughter who helps make everything happier. And a little more support too. I guess my answer…

Ruby, I'm hoping for a vbac too. Going to do everything in my power to make it happen. :-) :-) :-) :-)

Welcome! Congrats on your already amazing weight loss. From 250 to 115 sounds a lot like me. I was up to 240+ & got down to 111 even tho I held mostly at 130-135. I kept the weight off for almost 10 years & it came back quickly once i started gaining. Now I'm back at 209. I was a little over 200 when I got pregnant. I've…

Thank you ladies!

Is there anything you don't put mustard on??? Lol

Yea I bet that was super scary at 31 weeks. I hope your last 5-10 weeks go smooth for you. :-) :-) :-)

20 weeks & 4 days, I've gained 5lbs. Really hoping to keep it as little as possible because I started off so over weight. 4'11 cureently 209lbs. Feeling good about it so far!

I agree w the ladies. Seems silly to even do it. I wouldn't even let your brain acknowledge that. :-)

I know that fear. I had a miscarriage & bleeding w now both my girls. This current pregnancy I had major bleeding & cramping at 9 weeks & was sure I was doomed. They decided it was bleeding behind the placenta & put me on modified bed rest for 5-6 weeks. Now I am able to do prenatal yoga & other exercises in the prenatal…

Thanks for the welcome ladies! I stay and am motivated by a few things. My desire to eventually wear my old clothes & feel comfortable & happy in my skin. My daughter that's almost 2 & my newest baby girl on the way. My frustration w life in a few areas & feeling like this is something I can control, now. Lastly, I really…

Hi pregnant mommas. I'm really happy to have found other ladies here expecting. Surprisingly I have been able to do really well w my eating & doing some prenatal exercises. I've also decided to think about my weight loss is 10lb increments. So my first will be to get to 199 & then work down to a happy weight. Somewhere…

Hi! I'm due Nov 24th!

Hi Ladies. I'm looking for additional motivation. I once lost over 100lbs & kept it off for years. Having a community board like this helped. I'm not sure this is the same tho. We had regulars, weekly weigh ins, daily conversations about food, life, stress & exercise. I don't need to lose 100lbs this time but 50 would be…

Yea, I'd try & see what you can handle :-)
