How Much Weight Have You Gained? - Page 3

Michelle - I feel your pain. s You hubby is being a jerk and you shouldn't let it get you down. My hubby is sort of like that too, only he is more subtle about it--like mooing or making a face when I bend over (ok, so maybe that isn't so subtle.). I just figure that it is his problem if he can't find the beauty in a pregnant body. It's all ingrained from the media, all this stupid fake beauty ideals.

I've gained 16 pounds at 33 weeks (having lost 5 to start with so I'm actually 21 pounds over lowest weight during pregnancy). I was about 30-40 pounds overweight to begin with so I feel this is healthy for me this pregnancy.

Michelle -- Hee, hee. I second the idea to smack your DH with the placenta. :LOL

I've gained 31 lbs in 33 weeks.

I've gained 18 lbs. in 33 weeks. I would like to have gained only 25 lbs. when I go into labor. I hadn't quite lost my pregnancy weight from 2003 and don't need to gain much. Last pregnancy I gained a whopping 52 lbs. YIKES!! : SO, I am thrilled to be up only 18 lbs. But, with last pregnancy I also lost 25 lbs. the first week post-partum. I am hoping for similar results this time. Thank heavens for BFing!
