Hi Mama's! How are you all feeling? I went to Texas last week for a horse show and came back to a 7lb weight gain! I am now up ~12lbs at 23 (almost 24) weeks. :-( My goal was to only gain 15lbs during pregnancy so now I don't know what I'll do.

Hi there! I am 22 weeks and have already gained about 9lbs. First of all, it is totally normal to not gain, or even lose weight, the first trimester, which is what I did. The Doc told me to only gain ~15lbs so I haven't changed my goal to "gain" yet since I have been gaining without that as my goal. I figure if the doc…

I only did one class, at about 11 weeks, and came away with bruised knees. It hurt! I want to try again but am scared of hurting my knees. I did sign up for a aquatic prenatal class and LOVE it so far. See if there is a Cambio Yoga studio near you. I liked the class just not what it did to my knees.
