Sorry if the weight talk bothered you. :) I'm actually obese by bmi, so managing my weight is an important consideration for me during pregnancy. I can go elsewhere to talk about that.
(eta: Sorry if that reads as abrasive! It's not supposed to be.)

double post XD
Don't feel like you have to go elsewhere! We all can talk about what is on our minds. I'm actually worried about my weight too. I was at a normal BMI prepregancy, but I lost so much weight over 14 weeks that even with my 3lbs weight gain, I'm underweight BMI wise [emoji20]. My doctor isn't worried, but I am!!

I ALWAYS gain 40 pounds while pregnant ... however for my height (5ft1) I should really only gain 25 or so my midwife says. This time around I started off 10 pounds heavier than before my daughter and I really am going to try and stick to that 25 pound mark. I don't know how people do that though? Lol
My babies are usually almost 9 pounds!

They do it by staying active (usually lots of walking) and not eating for two. In most cases, the massive weight gain comes from free for all type of eating which is instilled in our culture, mainly foods that aggravate insulin resistance, which pregnant women are prone to during 3rd tri. I didn't even bother looking at the scale with DD, I had NO idea how much I gained lol. I didn't have food aversions with her though nor did I have this yucky nausea, but I ate like crap before I got pregnant and continued doing so during pregnancy.
Speaking of different symptoms. I talked to my midwife today and she said that a different gender and/or a different partner can most definitely be the cause of my very different symptoms this time around. So yes, genes do play a role as I suspected.
Question: Did any of you experience headaches or migraines during the 12th and 13th week? I've had a migraine for 2 days now and its a killer :( it gets weaker at some point of the days, but it is there and threatening to get stronger on and off. I'm wondering if its the transfer to placenta happening?
Roe - I kept wanting to come congratulate you in between my misery. I'm glad you found out before your vacay and hope you've enjoyed yourself! I'm sorry you didn't hear pink and I wish you the best in your pregnancy :awe:
Thank you Cosmo! All is good in Maui with little baby boy in tow [emoji170] Aloha [emoji259]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...539005944f.jpg
