Just had my midwife appointment

[Katy_89]

And everything is good with bubs So it's just moi feeling awful, which I suppose is a good thing.

Fundal height is 26cm at 25weeks, so now when people start on about how big I am I can tell them I actually pretty spot on

Baby is head down, with his back to my left side, same as he was at my scan at 19 weeks...lazy sod is obviously comfy there After midwife poked him to check his position and put the doppler on he kicked her really hard. Clearly going to be a little rascal.

The only thing is I haven't put on any weight since I was 12 weeks. I have had awful sickness the whole way through, so my weight has been up and down.

At 4 weeks preg I weighed 11st7.
At 12 weeks I weighed 10st8
At 14 weeks I was 9st12
At 16 week appt I was 10st2
Today I was 10st8

Is that okay? I haven't actually put any weight on, and am still a stone under my pre preg weight? But I am slowly gaining back what I lost I guess.

I dont think it's a big problem hun. If you are measuring well that's great. It's obvious really but keep trying to eat well and take supplements. Your baby wont go without that's for sure but you will. If you werent too underweight to start with I wouldnt worry - you're starting to gain nicely now and there's plenty of time now.

Is that your last 2nd tri MW appt then???

 

[Katy_89]

Oooh yeah it is. I hadn't thought of it that way. Next one is in 3 weeks when I'll be in 3rd tri

To be honest I was probably overweight to begin with anyway, so I guess it's not going to do me much harm. xx

 

[Mervs Mum]

My SIL lost all the way through and was lighter after giving birth than she was pre pregnancy. She wasnt fat but she was carrying a bit of spare

 

[Toonlass]

I'm glad everything went well at your appointment hun xx

 

[Katy_89]

Yeah, hopefully I'll be able to keep it off after I have LO xx

 

[danni]

Im sure its fine if the measurements are as you say he sounds like hes growing wonderfully

 

[luvbunsazzle]

I lost weight with Rosie hun, i dont think it was till right at the end when i began to put back on again.
But things are sounding really good for you

 

[Sam's Mum]

Glad it all went well Sounds like your little man is getting all the calories you have managed to keep down, so I'm sure it's fine - must be so much harder on you though x

 

[Mamafy]

You've been through it hun with the hyperemesis You have all my sympathies, when I was pg with Katie (twins) I was sick all day long, every waking minute but it left so I can't imagine what you're going through

Anyway bubs is measuring perfect and you're not continuing to lose weight so I think you'll be fine xx

 

[Me, My Girls & I]

glad it went well! i wouldnt worry about weight like the others have said! i've only put on just over a stone and i'm due in a couple of weeks, with katie i put on 3 stone i still had a stone to lose when i got pregnant again, but havent reached the weight i got to with katie! as long as you're measuring well then it should be fine! i cant believe you're almost in 3rd tri, how quick has that gone?!

 

[Mervs Mum]

I had 8lb left over from Hebe.

Alice - So have you not got to the max weight you did with Katie? That's encouraging.....I was thinking I'd gain the same and then another 8lb min!

 

[Me, My Girls & I]

no, with katie iw ent up to 13stone (lol i was HUGE you know how short i am!), on a bad day not i go up to 21st11 by the end of the day, but first thing in the morning i'm 12.5st! i genuinely thought i was gona be 14/15 stone by the end of this one!!
