oh my gosh i had no idea that response was that long! sorry

here's my uneducated, only speculating opinion- first and foremost- listen to ur body. if u feel like u need a lighter workout in bt days, do it. some is better than none and nothing is worth harming ur self/ baby over. also i would ask ur ob to help u estimate an average of how many calories a day u should take in to…

(beside the subject- jaime I think you look beautiful in your profile pic. you look completely porportionate) also jaime- you are getting close to 3rd trimester. with all 3 of my pregnancys- toward the end of the 2nd trim i began to lose momentum and the fatigue started setting in. so now i am in my 3rd trim and i have cut…

thanks. i hope you can return to walking sometime. it really does help control weight gain. i have to remind myself that it is still worth investing my time in doing it even though it is just not the same as a long, heart pumping run.

my goal was to keep running until 30- 35 weeks but i made it to ab 27 (and that was only running 1.5- 2 miles at a time- i would have like to maintained 3) i just lost momentum bc of time constrictions and whatever other excuse i told myself. but i am ok with it. i know i will get back into it! way to go for your continued…

I am currently pregnant with my 3rd and plan to do a nonmedicated birth, if possible. My hx goes- 1st baby- Had planned non medicated birth, if possible. I was induced (bc I was over and had GD). I was limited to basically laying down, sitting on the edge of the bed, or standing right beside of the bed so pain management…

oh yea I forgot to include the detail that our dog's name is Benny :)

So how about my firstborn son, 3yr old, has picked out the name for his baby brother! I already have 2 boys. Both have family names after their grandpas. We had a girls name picked out but could not decide on a boy's name as there were not many other family names that were "workable" choices left. DH and I just couldn't…

30 weeks and up 22 pounds. I can't wait to start running again. With the weather turning cooler, I miss it so bad!

I did not put any clothes on my registry bc I had been given hand me down clothes from 0-12 mos and did not any. more. clothes. I got tons of clothes. I also got a lot off my registry so I was thankful but I ended up taking back most of the clothes and exchanging them for other items. Good luck.

So I have maintained my weight from last week :) My goal is to maintain it one more week. I have gained 21lbs in 29 weeks.

Dear baby, can you please plan to be here a little early, just a litttle??????!!!!!, as your big brothers were both late :(

28 weeks and up 21 pounds. I am going to try my best to maintain this weight for the next 2 weeks. It;s going to be hard though bc Sunday there is an ice cream social at church. I <3 ice cream. And I can never seem to swing any exercise on Sundays for some reason unless I skip a nap. And I am not skipping my nap ;)

I don't care much for NA beer but if I am craving an icey cold beer during these hot summer months I will just have a the first few swigs out of my husbands. Usually less than half and my craving is satisfied.

26 weeks- up 20 lbs. gained 3 1/2 within the last week :grumble:

I was the same way during my first trimester. Around 12-15 weeks I started eating more veggies and meat proteins. The aversions should pass with time. I never figured out a way to work around them (this is my 3rd preg). I think with this preg the only veggie I got was wilted spinach on a pizza. I did crave spinach and…

This is Gross and prob one of the worst parts of being pregnant- starting around 20- 22 weeks- everytime you bend over, you throw up a little in your throat :(

bump

Cote d'Ivorie. I have a BMI lower than 81 % of women 30- 44 in the USA. WOW. Never would have guessed that!! and less than 51 % of of women in that age bracket in the world.

i guess this has kind of become the official "weigh in" page. i have been weighing more than once a week but i only record it once a week (on thursday or friday- which ever day i feel like is a true representation). so yesterday i was 24 weeks and have gained slightly over 16.25 pounds but not quite 16.5. i have been…

I will be 24 weeks Thursday. With my other 2 preg. I prob lost 10- 15 at delivery and then another 5 in the first month as fluid retetion decreased. Start today- brisk walking and aiming to get 5-7 fruits and veggies and reasonable portions (with your doctors approval of course) to help with gaining through the rest of…

Excellent work!!

I had Stoneyfield Greek frozen yogurt (chocolate) this weekend. 100 cal for 1/2 cup and 0 fat. 6g protein. It was not quite as sweet as ice cream but I am hooked.

AWESOME!!!!!

thank you. i have been looking everywhere for something like this :)

Wonderful!! You should be so proud of yourself :)

I do not think twice about seeing someone at the gym drenched in sweat (as long as they wipe the machine off) even if it does look like they peed in their pants. But I am like you, I am self conscious about it myself...

sorry to have sounded confusing in that 1st line- i do only weigh on one scale

i work in a doctors office so there are several scales throughout the building. :( i have done both- weighed a few times a week and weigh only once a week. the prob i run into is my weight can fluctuate 2-4 pounds within a week. it is really confusing. and i still dont know exactly how i am going to log/ keep track of it.…
