Reshma - Glad everything is going well. I have several friends who had children at 38 (seems to be the lucky number) and none had any complications. |

Debbie, I can't wait to see those beautiful babies tomorrow!!! I hope you don't get yelled at either lol. This whole gaining weight this fast seems so weird to me and I feel like I am never going to take it off. I feel like I am getting huge already. I have a feeling I will gain about 50 lbs. having two in there. Since I am only 5 feet and used to being in the 110-115 range, I am going to look like a waddling mamma duck. Hubby said to me tonight that I am starting to do the pregnant walk and he thought it was cute. We are planning on finding out what our babies are. I am so anxious!!! |

Yeah I know huh Julie..., my dad is such a sweet man. He kept saying that he would love to go if Greg ever couldn't. Today happens to be that day. My parents, along with Greg and I have been waiting for this for so long. My brother has 3 kids but is divorced and they have only had the opportunity to be pt grandparents so this is so huge for them. They are actually taking care of the buggers for the remaining months until summer once I return to school. Well I am off to my appt. I will post later this afternoon and let you guys know whatever I find out today. I can't believe this is my 5th u/s since the beginning of my pregnancy. |

Well Ladies I am back from my OB appt. Thankfully I only gained 4 lbs so I did not get yelled at. I just have to keep it at this pace or slower. I do not want to gain more than 35-40 lbs. I got the results from all my blood tests and everything was normal except the cystic fibrosis but I already knew I was a carrier going in. They determined that last preganacy and DH was not a carrier so we are also good on that note. They were able to hear babies heartbeat with a doppler. It was 160 and she said 140-170 was normal. I was almost sad that I did not get to see the baby on u/s. Now can't wait till June 11 for anatomy check u/s. |

JenFrancis - I gained about 50 with my first and I have no regrets. I took most of it off from brest feeding. |

Well here is the problem. I gained 76 with my son and I was 25, it took 2 years to get it all off. I gained 82 with my daughter and I was 32. I only got 40 off. So I am starting this pregnancy 40 lbs heavier than with dd and 55 lbs heavier with ds. I have gained 10 lbs so far. I did not have any morning sickness at all so I have never felt compelled not to eat. OB said to try and gain no more than 4-5 lbs in next 6 weeks. She said after 20 weeks there is really nothing I can do and just be healthy. That is what I intend to do. If I only gain 5 more lbs between now and 20 weeks, I will leave myself 20-25 lbs for the final 20 weeks. I just do not want to end up heavier than I was with dd. I was so uncomfortable by the end and she was 9lbs 15oz. |
