My daughter was born June 16 too! I’ve only lost 10lbs [I gained about 35], but it’s my fault because I’m still eating like I’m pregnant! I know I need to cut back on my portions and eat a little healthier. I walk a few times a week, but I …

I am only 19 weeks and have gained about 13.5kgs (30lbs)…help?

Q: Can anyone help me! I have gained ridiculous amounts of weight during this pregnancy for a few reasons:- One, I quit smoking as soon as I found out which resulted in about 5 kgs in the first few weeks; and- Secondly, we are renovating and I have been living without a kitchen for the last couple of weeks and have had to eat every meal out or takeaway.- Also, between the renovations and full time work I have found it very difficult to exercise.I know it is no excuse at all and I want to take control of things now. What can I do from now to minimise the rest of the weight gain during this pregnancy? Also, is it safe to attempt to lose some of this excess weight during pregnancy? I don’t want to starve my child but I also think being this large is not good for the baby. It is also depressing me terribly and I cry about it sometimes when I am alone and that can’t be good for the baby.I just had my 19 week u/s and everything is really healthy. The baby is normal size as is the placenta and amniotic fluid. I’m just fat and it’s all around my butt and thighs.

A: Don’t worry. I am 39+3 now and have gained about 24Kg altogether. Check out the answers to my question. they’ll make you feel better!http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AvyZ2InFFkmDMnHEtw2TjXAgBgx.;_ylv=3?qid=20080326091231AA7VoqO

were you excited to start working out after your pregnancy.?

Q: I am 6 1/2 months pregnant with my 2nd. when i got pregnant with my 1st i remember that i told myself that i was going to be healthy and be more active WRONG!!! i started at 136lbs gained around 45lbs during pregnancy and lost 15 lbs a week after birth. 2 months after i was down to 156lbs and when i found out i was pregnant again i was at 140lbs. With this pregnancy i didnt gain weight till my 5th month. at my 6th month check up i had gained a total of 9lbs. i bought me some prenatal pilates and workout videos which i do once in a while plus walking and taking care of my 17 month old. i am now 26 weeks and i feel huge and fat although i am not really stressing it. I cant wait to have this baby and just get to exercising again and taking good care of myself. i have been pretty good about what i eat with this pregnancy. I just think its funny how i get really excited about getting back in shape after the baby is born during pregnancy but when i have the baby i loose that motivation and I could care less. I guess you just get so involved with the new baby, current children and life (work, husband, house) that you loose focus on yourself. i hope that motivation is still with me when this baby is born. Have any of you ladies felt this way? I also cant wait to get new clothes, get a nice hair style (i think i deserve it, i have havent colored my hair in 6 years just the occasional haircut here and there) i know there are ladies out there that felt this way and i just wanted to hear from you. my husband has been running and just taking better care of himself. I very much just want to join him. I am so proud of of well he is doing. He’s lost around 20lbs in 6 weeks. Also, do any of you ladies feel like you look better now after after having children?

A: Wow, we sound almost identical in that sense! I have a almost 16 month baby boy, and with my first pregnancy I went from 111 pounds to 162 pounds and swore I’d work out and be thin and sexy again after I had my son. I seriously lost maaaaybe 10 pounds? I am 19 weeks pregnant right now, and I’ve actually lost weight and have only put on maybe 4 pounds so far this pregnancy.This time I’m working out and trying to eat better with this pregnancy. I definitely don’t want to gain a whopping 51 pounds again! Haha!!! I definitely will work out better once the baby is born. DEFINITELY.Don’t worry though. You are not overweight nor fat. You are pregnant. =)

A: yes, I know what you are talking about! I have a 10 months old now, I did not loose motivation but I felt it was quite impossible to take care of my baby and work out at the same time. I felt exhausted most of the time, post partum hemorroidal pain did not help. I gained pounds AFTER I gave birth ( lot of middle of the night snacks while breastfeeding+no workouts+working outside siiting in a office=fat). well I am still struggling to find a Me time, but my son is so wonderful I tell myself I will eventually resume exercise when he is older. I don’t think I look better : birth mark, weight gain, hair loss…, But it’s not as important as it used to be to me
