Oh my goodness, this has NEVER happened before.

[misdee]

i am actually gaining weight this pregnancy.

20 weeks almost and an 8lb gain!

thats normal right?

usually at this point i weigh less than started and give birth weighing under what i started at.

Really???

I am always a huge bloater when i am pg lol

i suffered really bad morning sickness with the kids and could barely, eat. this time i am eating normally, with a few extras lol.

has your hyperemesis not been so bad then?

8 lbs is normal ...

20 - 24 lb gain is normal for pregnancy

extra fluid, blood, the baby, placenta, breast tissue, extra fat stores etc..

not been too bad this time at all lulamama. got past 16 weeks and actually been eating the last month with just a couple of days of sickness.

well, that is good news ! you can hopefully enjoy the pregnancy and not feel ill and worry about hospitalisation... cannot believe you are almost half way through

Oh god poor you

I never suffered the awfulness of being sick. I felt sick every day for the first 3 months with both my dd's but it went away if i lay down Cue lots of lying down lol

Glad the pg is going well Misdee
