Is my pregnancy weight gain on schedule or do i weigh too much?
I weighed 170lbs when I went into labor, having gained 30 lbs. My baby weighed 7lbs even. I had retained so much water that I literally had of water on top of my feet. It was so uncomfortable. I lost 23 lbs the first week after I had her, and was down to pre-pregnancy weight in just a matter of weeks. I think that weight gain has to vary between woman because your body will keep what it needs for the baby-whether in liquid or solid. If you start out small like yourself, they say you should gain more than someone who is overweight. If I were you, I would totally not stress over it. If you choose to feed, you will burn so many calories that the Extra weight will probably shed off quickly anyway. It is crazy how the body prepares itself for labor and delivery by holding onto fluids it knows you will lose when that big day approaches. Even though I have not seen you or the baby, I love to make guesses, and I am guessing that your baby will be 7 lbs 6 Oz's. A nice healthy little girl. Good Luck!!!
