LOL! I went to the OB today, and they said I am now. 151 1/2 lbs, and I feel fat! I was like 118 to start, but I dont know. I guess I just wanted to post about something. Oh and they kept wondering also, why I was measuring so small, well here the baby dropped in a funny way, and its head is already down *WAY* down..is this good for labor, could that be a sign of a quicker labor, since the baby is already right there? Shocked

First I was 100 lbs pre preg, and I gained 75 lbs with Hannah. I'm about 125 or so now...

AND the baby being low is a good sign, she is supposed to drop twoards the end, but unfortunately it is no indicator as to when you will go into labour. Hannah dropped when I was about, oh I dunno 30 weeks or so, and I was induced at 42 weeks Rolling Eyes

Also every baby drops (usually) so...

My first boy was also really low, really early. When I went into labor, her was already at +1 station. Unfortunitly, I sitll had 25 hours of labor, and then a c-section Mad

However, I was told that if I had gotten to the pushing stage, it may have been quicker!

My biggest fear throuh, im just so worried on wether or not I am going to be able to fit into my old bikini! LOL!

I know I'll never fit into any of my old stuff for 2 reasons; My breasts are way bigger, and my hips have spread. Rolling Eyes

I used to be a size 0-3, now I'm a 7...I still have baby fat to lose...it's tough. Well most young mothers bounce right back (biatches) but some have it rough...ah well it's way worth it!

I just went to the ob yesterday. And he got mad at me because I gained almost ten pounds in one month. I was 110 up until last month. I am in my sixth month now. Is that bad to gain so much weight in one month. The last three months of my pregnancy has gone by fast. I just cannot wait to get my daughter here so i can sleep during the day. I work grave-yard. So she is up during the day and a sleep when i am at work. And is it bad when you are a 34c and in two months you are a 38d?

I dont think its bad, I would think its cool! lol! It took me my whole pregnancy to jump a cup size and some. lol! I would be showing them off like there is no tomorrow.
And I dont see why the doc would be mad at you!! That sounds like your doc, is kinda rude. I thought they wanted you to gain weight, its not your fault how much, sometimes you can't control how much you put on, its up to the baby (in a way)..UGH! I dont know..I am so sick of seeing docs.
Im going every week now, so I just want to smack them all, Im being probed and proded to much!!!! Rolling Eyes

First it all depends on what KIND of weight I'd suppose. If it's actuall baby weight, or fat from you eating too much or something. I gained 75 lbs with Hanah and I'll tell you right now the majority of it was in the second half of my pregnancy, and nobody ever yelled at me...

I wouldn't count on her sleeping through the night right away either. Hannah didn't start to sleep through untill 4 months and even then she would still get up through the night. She is one now and does sleep through 99% of the time but there are still times when she wakes up...How are you planning on having a newborn sleep through the night and then allow you to sleep in the day?? Newborns sleep for 1-4 hour stretches at a time and need to be fed at least every 4 hours.

Also I wouldnt worry about the breast thing, I was lucky if I fit into a B before I got prego, now mine are a D...still Laughing

It doesnt mean anything bad. Everyone is different. Your breasts are just preparing to produce milk...
