k2bdeutmeyer Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 It has been a horrible day.....one thing after another. I want to cry, but it wouldn't do any good, so instead I'll sit here, whine to you all.....and eat the candy bar my 12yr old used her own money to buy me. Then, I'll contemplate crying again and probably go to bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well.....she had a hand in the creation of the bad day, so I think she was feeling a bit guilty. I have to give her some props though, because she also bought each of her siblings one too.

They know just how to make you feel about this big. 21 pounds? Tell them to bite you, you're baking a baby. I gained 50lbs with most of mine, singletons at that, no medical reason and I wasn't overeating. Some women gain lots of weight, some gain a little. My sister tracked her weight so carefully, it was worse than being on a diet. I never want my joy of being pregnant to be overshadowed by watching my weight unless I had a medical condition that gaining weight was bad. And even then, they need compassion. Ignore them, you are perfect just the way you are and I'm sure your baby is doing just fine even though you "gained too much". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They know just how to make you feel about this big. UGH! I go tomorrow and I'm dreading it because I know I gained 5 pounds in the last 4 weeks. Granted it's only a total of 7-8 pounds but when your already overweight you ALWAYS get the lecture. As for cravings, Bruno here, the baby of a diabetic, wants to eat all the time AND he wants to eat CARBS and SUGAR. We have many late night arguments (he and I) about what we will eat and when we will eat it! LOL I finally did break down and get him the Frosted Mini Wheats and he seems to understand we can only have them as our snack after we take our bedtime insulin and there will only be one bowl. They have lots of fiber and it seems to balance it all out as I've not had any crazy spikes. Now, I just need to convince him he does not need donuts and cupcakes! So far I only slipped once with a donut and it was the best darn donut I've ever eaten in my whole entire life. I took a little extra insulin for that and felt guilty for two whole days! 21lbs is really not bad especially with all your dealt with in the beginning. I thought you'd lost a lot of weight with HG? So obviously you just put that weight back on with baby weight added in! Don't let them bully you! You've got this! Your almost there!

Guest inoubliable Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 G'morn! Get enough good sleep? I had, um, another donut. Laced with Benadryl. I *think* I slept well. 21 lbs, huh? *snort* Tell the doctor to shove it. You're making a baby! It's hard work and you've had a hard go at it. Your body is doing what it must, and your baby is healthy. What more do you need *right now*? I wish you could stress less and enjoy your pregnancy. You so deserve a break.

I will be paying for the way I handled DD's situation yesterday here in about 2hr. It won't be pretty I'm sure. I'm NOT looking forward to it.
