I'm 15 weeks 2 days and i'v gained around 25 pounds so far . It seems like I'm always hungry! I've always been on the heavier side but wore my weight well , however I've gained alot of weight in my face and other places too . I feel so self conscious ☹️
@ak.20 I just think maybe something I say might get taken the wrong way like when I said I wish I had your problem i didn't say it to be rude but you could have interpreted it as boring rude ya know. This app is full of pregnant or just moms who are sensitive. Ya know. So some times I'm couscous of how I say this.
@babyveach, always speak your mind , as long as your not being rude i don't think anyone will get offended. Its okay for different moms to have different opinions 🖤
Personally if I stress out about the weight I'm gaining, I start gaining more. Be as smart about your food choices as you can but don't even think about not eating if you're hungry! Seriously, I was running all the way until just before the third trimester and I was still gaining too fast.
I get that gaining too much isn't great for baby but neither is a starving, unhappy mother. If at the end of the day you're exhausted on the couch and you think "I did what I could today" then I'd say you're doing great 👍
@thewilliamsfamily I feel like I might say something that someone might be offended by without even trying but almost everyone is so chill and understanding. It's sometime easier to talk to stranger cause whether they judge you or not you don't have to see them cause they don't know you personally. It's kinda great
@ak.20 yeah very true. Pregnancy is a blessing and also a task. It is so hard on your body at time but then so wonderful other times. Just gotta roll with it and try to be positive.
@thewilliamsfamily, I believe you can do it too !! I have the Glow Nurture app and no one really likes or replies to "statuses" on there . Its like no one is friendly .. but on this app its totally different I'm so glad there are other women on here that encourage and help me with questions/ advice, its nice to be able to talk to people who understand and are some what experiencing what i am .
@thewilliamsfamily, well congratulations! Im happy for you ! I wish i had lost instead of gained . Hopefully i wont gain to much more !
@babyveach, dont feel bad ! You are beautiful!! You have to remember that every womans body is different and that we grow differently too . Iv tried my best to embrace my body and its flaws . I try to focus on enjoying my pregnancy.
@thewilliamsfamily, i know how that feels , i was 170ish and then my dad passed away at home and i fell into depression and within a year i was almost 300 pounds , i went through a break up and quit eating and lost a good bit of weight and now im starting to put it back on and i dont want to ☹️☹️
I wish I had your problem. Literally I feel like I barely eat cause either something didn't smell right or I throw it up anyway. My last pregnancy I gained what I should have but was still very small the whole time. I just feel like my baby isn't getting enough. I'm 14 weeks tomorrow and I see people earlier then me with bumps already and I just feel bad about it.
@thewilliamsfamily, thankyou so much . My mom keeps telling me the same thing but i still get upset , im afraid i wont be able to lose it after the baby is born . I was around 225 pre pregnancy and it just seems like every time i go to the doctor iv gained a couple more pounds . I was in a size 16 and quickly wasn't able to fit my pants anymore . I dont know what to do , iv been staying so tired lately that its hard to walk , or even pick up the house some days. I try eating healthy but iv been having really bad food aversions so i can only do so much 😭
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️

A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
@babyveach, haha , no ! You're fine . I didn't get offended at all .
