I'm 40 and will be 41 when my 2nd one is born in April. Just remember 40 is the new 30 :) and you shouldn't worry.... there are lots of us out there :)

I set mine to gaine .5 a week, but during the first trimester, it's a bit high. I think my calorie allowance went from 1250 to 2200 and if I go under, then no big deal. i never try to hit 2200, but I'm starting the 3rd trimester and it's pretty easy, but it wasn't at 16 weeks.

Great job, you do look fantastic. So now you'll get lots of dates and when you start working out, you'll be getting lots of dates with supermodels :)

Yay for you!! It's those little things that made a such a big difference and can help us keep motivated to continue moving forward. Thanks for sharing :)

I had a pinched nerve over xmas. I felt like such an old lady with it and those shooting pains.... yikes!! I did do some back stretches, but they didn't seem to work. What I *think* did the trick was sleeping on my side with a pregnancy pillow (i'm sure any pillow not too fluffy would do) between my lower legs. The nerve…

If I know I'm being really bad and going way over my allotted calories, then I don't need a tracker to prove I'm right :)

The pink bathroom suits you

I can't believe the 3rd trimester starts next month!! After the holidays we're going to get rid of our official guest bedroom and work on turning it into a nursery and our office into a spare bedroom. Excited to put stuff together. I already have 10 outfits bought for the first 1-2 months.... so much fun, but sad he can't…

Glad you're here also. I'm 21 weeks :)

There is a lot of skinny fat out there.... those girls that don't work out, but stay skinny by dieting and they lack muscle tone anywhere. Anyhow, I dream of the day I can weigh and look like your before pictures and then turn it into your after pics (i'm 5'8) So good for you and you do look amazing!!!

Donate every single piece of clothing I own now and get a brand new closet full of clothes in my skinny ***** size Since I live in Vegas, I'd get a cabana at one of the resorts and strut around in my bikini Ahhhh to dream, but I know it can happen :)

Hi there.... I'm 19 weeks and when I found out I was pregnant I did update my my account, but there was not a pregnancy option. I changed my calories from 1300 to 2030, which came from me telling MFP that I wanted to gain 1/2 pound a week. I usually will hit 2030 or go up to 2200 a day, which my doctor is encouraging.…

What a huge difference 150 can make :) You look great and keep up the good work.... it's now a lifelong commitment. Good Job!!! :)

Nesting overload is what I call that!! Ahhhh... I too have started to think about these things and pretty soon I will start doing them and I have 5 months to go. Trying to hold out so badly to buy buy buy. P.S. I think nesting is fabulous :)
-
I'm pregnant too! I'm due in April and ended up taking a break from MFP during my 1st trimester because I had zero energy for anything. I've gained 10 pounds so far, which I'm actually proud of because with my 1st I gained over 50lbs, so I'm on track for maybe 25-30? There is a pregnancy forum on here. Check it out:…

That's a great way to gage how one is doing with weight loss. I know it's such a great feeling when you can buy a smaller pair of jeans. I always feel like that's a big accomplishment. Congrats to you!!
-
That is a big difference. You can totally tell. Great job and good for you!!
-
You were totally cute before and now you're drop dead gorgeous lady! Congrats to you and watch out for those boys!!

Welcome!! MFP is the best place for tracking your progress and getting all the support you'll need. Just make sure you login every single day and you will find your flow and your way to your goals :)

My drink of choice are Vodka Soda's as well, with lime. Right now I'm pregnant, so not drinking, but before I would have a lot and when I get tipsy, I tend not to eat too much anyway, but the calories did add up really fast when I logged them. Have you tried or seen the Skinnygirl vodka line? You'll get 65 calories for an…

I think I just peed my pants

Congrats to you!!! I'm 15 wks pregnant and initially it was a struggle to stay on MFP because I was so exhausted the first trimester, but try to stick with it. There is a pregnancy forum on here for all the preggo ladies :) http://www.myfitnesspal.com/forums/show/1920-fit-fabulous-pregnant-

Great job!! What a great feeling to finally be able to fit into clothes you couldn't get into before. Yay for you!!

I haven't logged in, in like 2 months :( The first trimester was so tiresome and I couldn't get myself to do anything. I'm going to try and get back on here to keep motivated with you guys so after we give birth, we turn into little rock stars :) I hope everyone is doing well so far. I've only gained 7 pounds so far (last…

I'm in the same boat. I am so exhausted and my energy levels are so low. I have so much stuff to do and I can't even get up to do them..... Feeling like a lazy blob, but I'm just so dang tired. I remember with my 1st, it started to go away in the 2nd trimester. The 1st try was definitely the worst for feeling exhausted

Welcome everyone!!! I've been sticking to 2,000 calories a day and haven't gained much weight yet. Off to a houseboat this weekend with a barbecue and someone is bringing 4 lbs of brownies and chocolate chip cookies. So hard to say no when you're pregnant, or it's just my excuse. Have a great weekend everyone!!!!

I've recently thrown caution to the wind and have been eating whatever I want to. UGH!! This happened with my first baby and I ended up gaining over 50 pounds. I think my emotions are telling me "do whatever the F*** you want, you have a great excuse". I'm hoping I'm just in a funk right now and get back to making…
