overwhelmed here. i am 38 wks today and husband wants to take off to the beach to relax and do some fishing. really?!?!

Congrats!!! So happy for you :) your baby is a cutie pie.

so i am bored at work and i like playing with #'s. takes my mind off food ;) i didnt start keeping track of my gains until 22 weeks so thats why it starts there. weeks 1-22 gained 16lbs weeks 22- 25 gained 16.5 week 26 gained 19.5 week 27 gained 20.5 week 28 gained 21 week 29 gained 21 week 30 gained 22 week 31 gained 21.5…

@mellynat Your weight gain pattern and goal sounds similar to mine. You can do it. I started pilling on the weight around 33 weeks though. ( Most of that being my own poor choices.) At this point I am 37 weeks and I have gained 31.5lbs. I didnt gain from last week and I am hoping to maintain until delivery.

i love your profile pic but you need to post a picture of your baby belly! i think the "soccer ball" look is so cute :)

i lost a little/ maintained during the first 6 to 7 weeks. i had gained a few lbs by my 9 wk appointment.

i dont think mine has gained with this pregnancy but with the other 2 he did put on some weight. prob 10- 15 lbs or less. but his mood swings are right up there with mine this pregnancy :0! we r under more stress this time and he is mean as a snake sometimes!!

36 weeks- 32 pounds gained

i only had an appetite for one thing at a time. like somedays all i felt like eating was bread or nothing but fruit. i also could not seem to drink water (normally i guzzle it). so i drank low cal gatorade. on the days i did not feel like really eating i just stuck to bland easy to digest things - like the other girls…

oops meant to quote giggee

"Hello ladies, I am on the home-stretch at 36 weeks. Agree with all that weight gain is not linear. Have spurts that are better and worse. With both this pregnancy, and my last, I packed on the most weight during month 5 (6-7 lbs) because I was so darn hungry. I am starting to slow things down now. I also realize how close…

medela fan here.

35 weeks, gained 30 :( bye bye goal of 30 pound or less gain.

blink- i was going to tell u earlier not to feel bad ab ur own kids getting on ur nerves. i am right there with u on that.

I thought of another peeve! Sippy cups - the disappearing of them to be specific!!! Dang things are $8 plus tax for 2 of the kind that I like (and you know I am not going to stand for a leaky half *ss sippy cup so I am going to fork out the eight bucks). But they keep disappearing (not on my watch- its my husband and MIL)…

I am so glad this thread was posted right now. I totally need a good vent and can related to everything all of you have said. I am having my own little pitty party today and everyone is invited ;) Here is my list- Laundry, dishes, cleaning at home. Everytime I get all the clothes put up, the basket is full of dirty…

Hi. This is my 3rd preg and the 3rd time i have had GD. the guidlines given to me were along the lines of this: 15-30 g (carbs) @breakfast 15g snack 45-60g lunch 15g snack 45-60g dinner. 15 g snack i went 2 a class. they instructed us to count milk and yogurt as a carb not a protein. fruit was not unlimited. it was allowed…

very true for me too. i have a habit of logging breakfast, lunch, and snacks and not the latter part of the day. those r the weeks i gain more than normal. 33 weeks- up 24.5 lbs

Hang in there! I think my fatigue peaked right around 9 wks and then started getting less frequent around 13. I ended up taking 3 weeks off from my normal fitness routine and just walked a few times a week during that time. The fatigue is back now at 33 weeks tho :(

sounds like if you read up or attend a class for anger management you should pass it on to her :tongue:

i have noticed that my fuse is terribly short too. i noticed it in my last pregnancy too. i did buy and read an anger management book just a few weeks ago! :flowerforyou: it helped. i 2nd cmaxmor- stay away from her the best you can and try to forget about it. it not worth you spending anymore time or energy getting upset…

I have no idea ab how ur abs affect labor but maybe the whole athelets have a more difficult time with labor has to do with their body habitus/ bone structure. ? IDK. thats just what ran through my mind when i read your post...

:huh: lost 2 pounds. not trying. havent changed much. i did start following a gestational diabetes diet/ carb controlled plan 2 weeks ago but i gained just a little those 2 weeks so i am stumped. not going to complain though. that puts me at 20 pounds at 31 weeks.

They stay in 2's and 3's longer than in newborn. And mine staying in 4's longer than they did 2&3's combined. But 4's doesnt really come until the end of the 1st yr so you have some time to work on stocking those.
