I think that if you are afraid to gain weight then you shouldn't have gotten pregnant. you are going to gain weight. after the baby is born and you keep the wieght then it's your fault. Just eat good foods and eat right. don't binge and you will be fine. that is where people make their mistakes...they have an excuse to eat what ever they want and that is not good.

then fine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! she shouldn't have a baby at all if she is worried about weight gain.

that is how i feel about it.

The whole weight issue.

I was 117 pounds at 5'4 when I had my first child. I gained 35 pounds with my lil' Nate and lost it within a few months. This was not purposeful. I actually ended up weighing only 100 pounds about six months later. I had a lot of tests to figure out why. It was very worrisome. I am small boned but that weight was not healthy for a "then" 29 year old. The conclusion: having a baby sped up my metabolism. I still don't know how it sped it up that much considering I ate like a pig. I actually wondered if I had tape worm (gross, I know).

You never know how your body will react. Worrying about it right now puts stress on the baby, too. I know you are trying not to worry, though, but it probably is difficult.

With this pregnancy I got completely worried because of my low weight. When you don't have enough weight on you the chances for pregnancy complications are higher than if you have average weight. When I found out I was pregnant with this child, I ate and ate and ate. Around 12 weeks, I had gained 15 pounds. I purposely tried to gain weight for my child - not that much weight, though. Little did I know THAT MUCH CHEESE can cause that much weight gain. Now I am stuck on modified bedrest and will probably gain about 60 pounds. It sucks but it would suck more cutting calories and not feeding into some of my cravings!!! I can't imagine life without anymore cheese or salt and vinegar potato chips.

I may lose the weight immediately, I may lose it later, I may not lose it. I am just happy that my baby is still here with me. I am in an extremely high risk pregnancy now and am so thankful that everything is going well at the moment. When you go through something like this, nothing matters but the health of the baby. Feed that baby, feed yourself....wear the weight proudly. Pregnancy weight gain is a beautiful thing!!! My husband actually finds pregnancy weight sexy and wants me to gain!!! I don't think I was voluptous enough for him during my last pregnancy. I was all ball.

Breastfeeding helps to take the weight off. If you weigh a little more after the baby and it's hard to take the weight off, just look at your little one and say....it was worth it. I brought a precious child into this world and my child is HEALTHY!!

Don't risk it, please.

Oh....

It is so NICE to have my boobs back!! I really missed having my boobs!! See - weight gain is a beautiful thing. A few weeks ago, my three year old said "Mommy whats those??" He said that while laughing, little booger.

I guess I really lost them.

i was soo skinny with my son and everyone told me i was all belly, i looked all belly but i sooooo wasnt, my hips got wide etc. they also said once i popped him out id look as if i was never pregnant, a lie haha, but it was hard to lose weight after him , jason was at basic and he would get 2 wks off here and there and come visit and we would always eat out and stuff. when he was 4 mths old this lady at the gas station asked when my baby was due. i was buying someting to snack on, after that it old jason he could eat it lol. this one im tryin hard to lose the weight but i wont ever be where i wanna be cuz my huge @$$ hips. 30 lbs is all i need to lose. me and my friend go to the gym on the weekends and days my hubby gets off early to babysit, i try to eat healthy wich is easier now since fried and fatty foods cause the excrutiating pain from the gallstones so i cant eat burger king no more lol. i kinda miss my body from before ihad my son i was soo skinny, flat tummy and all .
