Butterfly, could you share your height? That would let me figure out your BMI for each conception and add you to the list. Thank you!!Quote:

My bmi was between 16.5-17 with all my girls. I am 5'5" and weighed between 99-103 pounds before getting pregnant. I am not anorexic and don't diet and eat big meals (when someone makes them for me... lol) but I am just naturally really thin.
My BMI for DS1 was 20.7. For DS2 it was 21. I've always be naturally thin with a hearty appetite.. you know, eat what you like with no need to worry about putting on weight. This LE diet is throwing my body for a loop... I hope it works!
xeyecandiixx, a couple of questions: Do you remember your BMI for DS (or height/weight), so that I can include that in the list? Did you sway pink for your current pregnancy?Quote:

BUT I was eating a lot with the boys and losing weight on diets for this one. Started out at 151 lbs 24% body fat. Now at 134 15%. YEA!!!!
My BMI for this pg was 22.7 - unknown, but hoping for girl :)
My BMI was 21.6 when I conceived DS1 (didn't sway), and 20.8 when I conceived DS2 (swayed pink)
For my boys, my BMI was about 21.
I weighed less when I fell pregnant with my daughter - probably would have had a BMI around 19.
Hi Ladies,
I am new to this forum, but this brings me to something I have always wondered about. I am super muscular, have always worked out, and eaten low calorie. i thought i would have girls, but i have two boys.
My sway now revolves around trying to lose my muscle and get flabby:)
Atomic, maybe you could chime in here...is it more muscle=more testosterone?
i have 0 body fat. not sure of my bmi but super low.
Yes, more muscle = more testosterone. Also, being in excellent health also often means your fertility is very high and high fertility = more boys regardless of anything else you're doing.
I was about 120lbs and I'm 5ft 0.5in. :) I have 1 ds.
I am 5ft 6in and weighed
DD1: 130 lbs
DS1: 140 lbs
DD2: 135 lbs
before conceiving both DD's lots of people would tell me I looked sick because I was too skinny,and with DD2 because she was a surprise I was still dieting while pregnant, I lost another 5lbs in the 4-5 weeks until I discovered I was pregnant.
Height 5'6''
DS1- 21.5 BMI
DS2- 22.1 BMI
current BMI 20.1
My BMI is 19 and i have 5 boys (my bmi was the same the past 10 years orso)
Height 5ft 10.5
DS1 Weighed around 12 st 5 (not sure of BMI then)
DS2 11st 9, BMI 24
DS3 11st 4, BMI 23
I was the flabbest of my life when I concieved this girl. With my boys I was on a "diet" of higher protein less carbs, cardio + weight lifting. I was trying to lose 10 lbs with it and succeeded at that while gaining muscle mass while accidentally falling pregnant with them.

You said that you're currently at a BMI of 15 -- that's really, really, REALLY underweight. At 134 lbs., to have a BMI of 15, you'd need to be more than six and a half feet tall. :) If so ... how's the weather up there? ;)
If you tell me your height, I'd be happy to tally up the numbers for you.
Height 180 cm
DD1 BMI = 20 ( weight 65kg)
DD2 BMI = 20.7 (weight 67 kg)
Now BMI = 21.6 (weight 70kg) it's most likely a girl again :(
My BMI was 22,5 when conceived my DS
I am 5ft 8 (173) and weighed 143lbs 65Kg when I conceived both my sons. BMI according to the website I just looked on was 21.73 but I had more muscle when I conceived the second. Am now BMI 19 and dropping so hopefully that will sway pink when we start TTC.
Hola Mariposa - tu ingles es mucho mejor que mi espanol! No te preocupes!:giggle:
Not sure of BMI
DS1 : 10st 10 think that's 150lbs? BMI 22
DS2 : 11st 8 a guess which I think is 162lbs BMI 24
quiet muscely before both and exercised throu both pregancies, have now stopped as I don't have the time to do 4/5 times a week manic exercise suggested for ttc pink
now TTC DD 11 3 (157?) BMI 23, down 10lbs in last 6 weeks due to start first attempt next week fingers crossed it's enough!
I conceived my first son at a bmi of 16.5 and my second at a bmi of 17.9.
dd bmi 26
ds bmi 34
ds1- 21.22
ds2- 21.25
Now at 19.05- hoping for dd next!
I've always been on the skinny/ atheltic side, for ds1 I had a bmi of around 19, for ds2 my bmi was around 22, now I'm ttc a girl and my bmi is currently at 20 - and dropping with every day on the LE diet! :bigsmile:
Here's my info:
DS1: 24.7 BMI
DS2: 22.9 BMI
ETA: Current BMI is 24.5 and we're swaying pink right now (September). I've lost a lot of weight this year, but it still makes me nervous and worried about not having a lower BMI than my previous conceptions. :(
Ds1 my BMI was 33.5
Ds2 my BMI was 25.4
Unknown gender my BMI was/is about 24
I am about 5'8 and my BMIs were:
DS1: 145 lbs - BMI of 22
DS2: 145 lbs - BMI of 22
This baby - 130 lbs - BMI of 19.8
My BMI with DD was 18 (5'4" 105lbs)
Now I'm swaying boy and my BMI is 20.1 (117lbs)
My muscle tone leaves a lot to be desired. I'm like a thin girl lugging around pancakes.
DS1 BMI was 18
DS2 BMI was 22
Baby 3 Current BMI is 25
I see a pattern of steady weight gain...ugh :-/
Hi ladies,
I have given this list a long-overdue updating. My apologies for how long it took. Between my bfp and my gender scan, I tried to stay off the Internet as much as possible (both Gender Dreaming and Facebook), so as not to obsess, and instead spend that time with both prayer and distraction! :)
It's nice to have you back! :)
I'm 5'9" and my weight & bmi's were:
DS1 149 lbs - BMI 22 (heaviest weight ever)
DS2 135lbs - BMI 20
THIS BABY 124 lbs - BMI 18.4 (lowest adult weight ever)
BMI 16.2 (height 5'7, weight 7st 6oz) - girl
I was just generally skinny, I have a very slender frame anyway and because of smoking a lot barely ate anything!
I'd like to put together a listing of where we all were with our body mass index (BMI) when we conceived the children we already have. Presumably we'd see a trend of the underweight and overweight BMIs matching up to more pink and the moderate ones matching to blue ... I think seeing those numbers might be encouraging to those of us who are changing our lifestyles during our sways and losing or gaining weight.
If you don't know what your BMI was but can include your height and your conception weights for each kiddo, I'll do the math.
List updated through 9:35 a.m. CST, Sept. 24. Items marked with * indicates the individual regarded themselves as being muscular, athletic or toned at the time of that conception.
