I feel like I haven't gained much during this pregnancy and it's been worrying me. I've only gained 4 pounds and the looks on peoples faces when I tell them that I'm 6 months pregnant is always startling bc they say it's just a small bulge. Maybe it's bc I'm having a boy but during my first pregnancy, my belly was a lot bigger.
I lost 25lbs the first 18 weeks. I've put 4lbs on in the last few weeks. Ate a whole damn bag of mini doughnuts and twizzlers, a large family bag, on my over night shift, so I'm sure I gained 5 more last night!!! 🐷🐷🐷🐷 don't even feel guilty!
Yeah dont worry ! My belly started showing as soon as i turned 32 weeks 😊 And i even lost a few pounds instead of gaining them Lol
@candacelouise that's very true, I didn't ever think about that factor! :)
@mxvii.980 oh good! I don't feel too worried about my weight gain then :) thank you!
@patgom47 oh no.... I'm sorry you went through that and I hope you're well now!
@crisfenzo, yes! I think even when my mom finally did show it was barely anything. Probably has a lot to do with you're chasing around a little one too! Keeps you busy and going non stop.
@candacelouise I'm hoping that's what happens! I hear some women's bellys don't blow up until the last trimester!
@crisfenzo, i was throwing up every 15 minutes.. i had to have ivs 24/7 and a zofran pump that didn't work at all
@patgom47 how did they diagnose you? Like was it the weight loss and nausea? Bc I haven't lost weight and my nausea doesn't occur all the time.
im 34 weeks &ive; gained 7 lbs in total, Dr said it was completely fine!😊
@crisfenzo, yeah usually the other way around! But my mom was that way, she was tiny when she was pregnant with me (second child). Said she didn't show at all till 7-8 months.
@crisfenzo, when I was pregnant with my son, I lost 25 pounds due to hyperemisses gravidarum.
@candacelouise @tara01 my doctor hasn't said anything is out of the ordinary, always that baby is healthy so I don't ask him. It's just weird to go from being bigger the first time to not having a noticeable pregnancy this time around. Thank you ladies.
same here I havent gained anything I've actually lost weight but I feel better when the nurses say my baby girl is healthy and exactly where they want her to be :)
@patgom47, same thing happened with me. Dropped the weight in a month. Haven't put anything back on either due to being sick
