im huge but

im a big girl not going into the weight exactly but you get me. well on my first doctors apointment at about 8 weeks along my midwife told me that im on the big side so she wouldnt like to see me gain any more then 25 pounds total.. any where between 15 and 25... so being an already big girl and not the best at keeping my wieght down not being pregnant this made me stress a little. like wow how am i going to do that... wellive been going to my apointments every 4 weeks as usual and each and every time i lost at least 2 pounds. once i lost 1 and once i lost 3... all the way up till they started seeing me every 3 weeks and still lost 2 pounds... so now at 30 weeks and my last apointment was a few days ago i had lost 1 pound.. so my midwife said to me amanda are you trying to lose wieght i was like no im not i have no idea how i lost wieght. i told her i pretty much eat like a pig but some how im losing weight. then she asked if i started exercizing more i was like um hahaha no not at all... and even though ive lost about 10 pounds in 30 weeks of pregnancy i certainly dont look it my belly is huge. my midwife did the usual measurements of my uterus and said to me that im measuring about 3 weeks further along then i am. wich there is no way im any further along then i am so she said to me that she thinks im going to have a larg baby. now when i hit 36 weeks im getting an ultrasound to see how big he is going to be to find out wether or not i can pass him and all that good stuff... so oddly im losing wieght but im measuring big... im sure before i have this baby i will at least break even with where i started when i first got pregnant... if thats happens i will weigh less when i have him... but then again i could put on 20 pounds before i have him i still got about 10 weeks to go. even if i do put on 20 i will technacly only have put on ten,. i think this is pretty cool cuz i was thinking i was going to gain another 50 pounds when i first found out i was preggo. i gained about that with my daughter 4 years ago.

I've heard of people losing weight, big girls anyways.. My ex SIL was a big girl and she lost weight.... but that could have been the coke... IDK... But if you are healthy and so is the baby, then there shouldn't be anything to worry about! Good luck with your pregnancy!  

wow im a big girl too but they never gave me a total of weight i should or shouldnt gain...that sounds messed up!! =/ im sorry your goin through that!!

well most doctors and midwifes tell you that you are supposed to gain weight but you dont want to gain an excessive amount of weight because it can be unhealthy for you and the baby.... well even regular doctors say being overweight is unhealthy... just becuase im pregnant doesnt mean i need to put on a hundred extra pounds. what she said is that she has had babys get stuck in the birth canal because of excessive maternal fat.... that all woman who are pregant usualy put on maternal fat but for big woman if you gain too much it can increase the risk of having complications in birth or may cause you to need a C-section
