I'm about 5'5 or 5'6 and am now 4months
pregnant.
Ever since I got pregnant I can't get
myself to eat as much as I woujld like to.
However, before I was pregnant my weight
was 120lbs. And it still is the same
weight. The only thing that has changed
on me is my belly getiing bigger. Is this
normal? When will I begin to start
putting on the weight?????????????

Ok just to give you an idea of how weight
gain varies in women I can tell you that I
weigh 114 lbs. As of my last visit to the
doc. I am 31 weeks pregnant and my weight
constantly goes up and down. I have never
gone over 120 and I was 100-104 when I got
pregnant. Thats not alot of weight gain
and my baby is fine, she is actually big
for her age! As long as you feel that you
are getting enough to eat then you are
fine.

Sometimes I dont even have a big
appettite. For example, i'll be hungry
and will start to eat but then git full
really quick. I hate when that happenes
because I know that I am hungry still. I
just dont want to deprive the baby of
anything. I'm really worried about this.

how does the Dr.
Determine if your baby is big for her age?
I thought if the baby was big they just
figured you were futher along?

When I was four months preg, I lost weight
due to vomitting so much, but if your not
sick all the time, but I remember reading
or my Dr. Telling me it feels like your
full, but your not, you have a baby in
there and sometimes it takes longer for
things to work if you know what I mean, if
you know your still hungry eat a little
more, it won't hurt, and I don't care what
anyone says healthy baby or not you are
supposed to gain a certain amount of
weight for your and the babys health.
