I get you girl.. Its hard to gain weight.. Even though you know that you need to and that it is important. Its hard not to under do it or over do it.. 9 lbs isnt a big deal..Just make sure to eat healthy and exercise and whatever the number is on the scale youll be fine.. Just be healthy and everything else will take care of itself. Also if your doctor is going to make you feel bad about yourself id look into new care.. my doctor is great.>She understands my concerns and never makes jokes about them..

I actually have some exercise videos...."drop your bagel and do your kegals..." That one was so funny! You can also check some out at the library.

I can't exercise during this pregnancy and I feel like such a lard already! No matter what, exercising makes you feel so good. I would do anything for a cardio workout right now. I can't imagine 20 more weeks of this.

I exercised during my last pregnancy and bounced back so quickly!!

I know that moderate excersize is ok. I did while i was pregnant. But not to loose weight or to keep the weight off.

but ok

Confused I wasn't crying over weight gain There actually were no real tears involved, lol just a little bit of self doubt and needed some assurance. I know I will gain weight but was just wondering what's normal but I see how I wasn't that clear on that. I just have self esteem issues but my baby's health is absolutely the most important. I was just curious of others weight gains and how they felt about it so I could make some comparisons. Some days I feel like I look like crap, that doesn't mean i don't care about my babe, I just feel fat and icky and insecure, and then there are the days that I feel absolutely amazing. Ups and Downs you know?
Anyways just thought I would clarify all that. Thanks for the replies!

I walk to work. All the exercise I need Very
Happy

That is not at all what I meant.. I was just talking about exercise as in moderatly because the endorphins make you feel better.. I would never suggest for someone to try to lose weight while pregnant..Just to try to gain at a healthy pace.
