Anyone else expecting a November sparkler? *Updated with due dates!*

[3boys]

Omg peanut!! Your doing great- I cried last night because ive gained 9 pounds already which is exactly how I gained 80 pounds with my girls, from my 2 month visit on it was 10 pounds a month. I was huge like Jessica Simpson every time. I was 205 when I delivered and it was the most depressing feeling when I gained 80-85 pounds each time. I know its going to happen again even though I was determined NOT to let it happen this time. I feel depressed writing this :,( anyway- your adorable and you weigh less than I do I started at 116 and was 125 yesterday you just keep checking in on here when all the negativity floods your life with people and their unneeded opinions. We will ALWAYS be here for you no matter what!

And just curious.. Was your bc before ttc an iud?

You mean where I said I weighed myself bc ...? I meant I weighed myself because... I forget bc probably means something other than the shorthanded because.

Or did you mean was my birth control an iud? NOPE I don't use birth control. I am allergic to latex and I have been told since age 15 I would have a hard time trying to conceive unless my diabetes was in perfect condition. I haven't been pregnant ever so this truly is an amazing thing for us.

extra special babies x

don't worry about weight gain I way more than both of you put together now but unhappy and being over weight is really frowned up on in the uk they take very opportunity to blame everything on weight xx

Peanut & tower, really don't worry about the weight, there are so many things we worry about & really weight gain is the smallest- we can always loose it after and it really isn't worth getting upset over, especially when a little twinge or loss of symptoms can send us in to such a huge spin! Be kind to yourselves, your bodies are growing & nurturing new life, that's pretty amazing & weight gain seems like such a small price to pay

Hope that doesn't sound to preachy?!

Well I'm a mess tonight! Have any other uk ladies watched any of the bbc coverage of the last show at the bbc centre? Well I am crying at it it's a building for crying out loud!!! Why am I crying at a building closing down??!! and then we have just watched madness & I cried at "it must be love!" Is there any hope for me?!

Totally agree with this! When ttc took a while I went to my gp & she refused to do anything until I'd lost 2 stone, as she felt it was almost certainly my weight that was stopping us conceiving. Turns out my Husband has multiple probs with his swimmers! And my results came back completely normal regardless of my weight! I wanted to go back to my gp with the results & be like "In your face bitch!!" She made me feel so worthless.

 

[Tower6]

I knew this would happen when we had been ttc for a while and it wouldn't keep me from want to be exactly where I am now but it's really hard to go from 115 to 205 and not feel extremely self conscious. That's a whole person lol it's more of a inner strength that I'm upset about not having than it is about the weight itself. But hey I still have a lot of months to change it and be more aware of it before I count myself out thnx girls! This is why I luv u all!

I love how they say weight is a big factor in not conceiving because with my DD I was well over 23st and when I planned my DS I was about 21st and I caught with him just having sex once with their dad ( my ex the sperm donor ) and with this one I've got to be about 22 st I never weigh myself but in my case weight is certainly not an issue.

Weight is only an issue if you let it be in my eyes I'm happy they way I am and I know my children will love me no matter if I was skinny or as I am now!

Sorry I know off topic but went off on one lol xx

I think you are a gorgeous self confident lady. I am not to worried about the weight I just don't like it to be pointed out that am really starting to show when I am only 7 weeks and a few days along. Especially when I have lost weight since conceiving. My biggest thing is that since I was 17 people always asume that I am pregnant by how I look and I have been asked so many times throughout the years, " So you are pregnant aren't you?" and I never was. I was told I walk in a way that I look pregnant all the time. NO, I have compensated my weight on either side so I tend to wobble some is all. In a matter of two days 3 years ago I had a stress fracture in my left foot and then sprang my right ankle. I couldn't afford to not be working so I delivered newspapers 7 days a week in high rise Apartment buildings walking every floor and Served as a waitress 60+ hours per week I am in pain I walk funny AHHH!!! Sorry, people tick me off. Oh, and now that I am pregnant no one that doesn't know already thinks I am any longer. I have had people that I have seen in the past few weeks tell me I look happier and that I mut have lost some weight because I look thinner and so pretty. Then , I tell them well I am actually 7 and a half weeks pregnant.
