Pregnancy weight gain how much is too much?

Mon, 24 Nov 2008 18:51:00 -0600

Hi, I am currently 15W5D pregnant and at my prenatal appointment today I weighed in at 166 lbs. The thing that is freaking me out is that 5 weeks ago I was about 153lbs and 5 weeks before that I was 150lbs. The first two times I was weighed they used a different scale than today. My question is, is it even possible that I have actually gained 13 pounds in 5 weeks? I do not look like I have gained much other than in belly and boobs to myself or anyone else.

I am 5'3" and I am about a 34D in bra size. I have noticed that my breasts are heavier, but they also seemed this way at my last prenatal.

I am also worried about gestational diabetes.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello! I am currently doing weight watchers and am looking for ideas and additional support. I was hoping if there were other ladies on here looking to drop some pounds that we could be cheerleaders for eachother!

I am 5'8. I currenly weigh 197 lbs, with a goal of 160. I was 215 when I got pregnant but after the baby I somehow had lost weight and was 207. I've lost 10lbs with Weight Watchers but worry with the holidays approaching I am going to loose steam and give up. Let's help eachother become skinner, healthier moms or moms to be!!!!

hypothalamus amenorrhea and Osteoporosis

Sun, 09 Nov 2008 13:13:34 -0600

I have been diagnosed with hypothalamus amenorrhea due to low body weight. I understand that this can put you at risk for osteoporosis. I am curious as to how long it takes for Osteoporosis to set in? Does it takes months, years? I was on birth control pills for 10 years, and the hypothalamus amenorrhea most likely started about 5 years ago, but I was on birth control pills so I didn't realize it was happening. I recently went off the Birth control pills 8 months ago, and still have hypothalamus amenorrhea, so my bones have been unprotected for 8 months. Do you think I am highly at risk?

femara...weight gain? side effects?

Mon, 03 Nov 2008 23:14:16 -0600

I am supposed to start femara with my next cycle...in 7 days I should start my period. I am about 30 lbs overweight already (I gained alot of weight on clomid last year) and am scared to death I will gain on femara. What should I expect? I am 36...very good health (except over weight) with unexplained fertility (i am going to a fertility specialist now..she seems to think I ovulate too late but this is my only issue).

If it makes you gain weight, what can I do keep it from happening?

Dr Q Should I be worried??

Tue, 21 Oct 2008 14:15:51 -0500

I am currently 16 weeks pregnant with my first. I have not yet gained an ounce. Everythime I go to the doctor I have lost 4-5 oz. I am eating like I should and the baby is fine but im worried that I should be eating more? I dont know how in the world im not gaining weight. The doctor said I should gain 4-5 lbs a month now and im not. Should I be worried? My belly has gotten bigger but not alot. Should I be showing more at 16 weeks? Im just so worried about everything!

Does going on the pill make any sense?

Tue, 14 Oct 2008 08:58:33 -0500

I am late again with another BFN, some mild pressure/pain in my left overy though. Either I did not O &/or I have a cycst again. Going to the Dr later this morning for BW to confirm BFN & begin provera. Also to discuss the possibility of my having PCOS. I have been reading alot about it recently & I seem to have some of the symptoms. I was checked for it years ago & my BW was "borderline", whatever that means. I am just going to bring it up to see what they say.

Anyway, I am thinking of asking them to put me back on BC for the next 2 or 3 months. I am still trying to reach my weight goal & even though I do pretty well with my eating I tend to slack & avoid exercise which is getting me nowhere. I feel paranoid to exercise while TTC/not using protection- always worried that I "might be O'ing" or "what if I'm PG", ect...and then I stop working out. Thinking maybe I will be able to really focus on the weight loss with out the worries.

Anyway, just wanted some opinions & sorry so long, lol!

Ovidrel Weight Gain/Swollen Body

Tue, 30 Sep 2008 19:41:11 -0500

Since taking the Ovidrel injection 3 days ago, it feels like I put on 20 lbs. I am really puffy and just don't seem to fit in my clothes...even ones I wore last week fine. Is this normal? If so, how long til this stops? What can I safely do to lose this excess weight? Also, prior to the Ovidrel I was on clomid and hormones to bring on a cycle. Is all this related?

My son is too big?!!! confused?

Fri, 26 Sep 2008 23:23:54 -0500

ok...my son will be 34 months 0ct.2..which makes him 2yrs and 10 months old.

he weighs 44 lbs and is 40.5 inches tall...and hes not even 3 yet.

he is off the charts in both height and weight.

i told his pediatrician and he told me he is just a big guy..and will be when he grows up...kinda like a football player.

but im concerned because he looks like hes 5 especially next to all the kids his age. ppl dont beleive me when i tell them his age.

Hard Decision

Wed, 17 Sep 2008 13:48:21 -0500

I had an appointment with my OBGYN yesterday to discuss my irregular periods (coming every 2 weeks) and fertility (since we've been TTC for 3 years). The appointment went horribly ladies... I feel like a horrible person for wanting to get pregnant now. I left there feeling like I would be a horrible mom. :(

She said that she doesn't want to see me pregnant right now. I should get on birth control for a year or two so I could have time to lose weight, get my blood pressure under control (it's being controlled well right now), and she said I have plenty of time (even after I told her that we've been trying for 3 years).

She said I could do whatever I want, but basically she isn't going to help me. All she is willing to do is put me on birth control to control my every 2 week stupid period. I just got into the car after the appoitment and left, didn't tell my husband how it went or anything. Now I'm trying to decide if I really would be a bad mom getting pregnant... Or if I should just give up and go on birth control for a year or two... Heartbreaking.

This is the 3rd doctor to tell me the same thing and refuse to help. I'm so upset. I just want to curl up in a ball, lock myself in my room, and stay there forever...

Losing weight during pregnancy?

Wed, 17 Sep 2008 12:29:07 -0500

I am 11 weeks and 1 day today. I went to the doc last week and they found that I had lost a pound. I just weighed myself again and I have lost another pound. So in 11 weeks I have lost 2 pounds. I have been sick but not puking. I thought I have been eating just fine. I dont think I overeat but I think I eat enough for me and the baby. Im just woundering if this is normal? Also I have another appt. on tuesday and I will be 12 weeks. Will I be able to hear the babys heartbeat on doppler?

I have a child of 15mths, I have been ttc for over a yr but since having my child 15mths onld I HAVE NOT had a period, this was due to the fact I lost allot of weight but now I have gained it back and same weight that I conceived my first child. I am SO worried I will never conceive again, I went to see the gyn he gave me norethisterone 5mg to take one tablet twice a day for five days then clomid 50mg days 2-6. Is their hope for me, will this help me with my dream I know it is not guaranteed but the Dr did not seem concern about doing bloods etc to see if their was lasting damage !
