this is a picture from Monday when I became 23 weeks. excuse my face, it was a rough day for me lol. my doctor made me feel like complete shit at my last appointment because he was telling me that I've gained too much weight and there is no reason i should be this big. definitely not something you should say to someone recovering from body image issues and disordered eating. thanks doc 👌
it was just that one doctor. i see several in the same practice because whoever is on call when i go into labor is going to deliver the baby. I've requested that i don't see him again.
right? ive already gained 53 pounds, but it was only because my pre pregnancy weight was lower than it usually would be due to an eating disorder which i still struggle with. it's just ridiculous the way he approached the situation.
pfft ive gained 50+ lbs this pregnancy both my Dr and his nurses said all bets were off with weight when pregnant unless you have gestational diabetes or you're gaining like 20+ lbs a week you're perfectly fine.
