rant

I’m so scared to go my appointment tomorrow bc of my weight I’m only 22 weeks and have gained 30-35 pounds (it keeps changing) I have been going on walks every day (just started doing little exercises) and try my best to eat good ( ofc I snack but I really do try to stay eating healthy ) I’m just so scared to be yelled at because I already know I gained to much weight and they’re gonna tell me I weight to much I need to cut out food and eat less and work out more. I just don’t even want to go to my appointment bc I already know what I need to do I feel awful gaining so much weight idk how I let this happen, ughh

If they tell you to eat less and workout more then you need a new doc. Some women gain more than “normal” and that’s okay. Their concern is usually you losing the baby weight after when you gain more. But restricting calories and working out too much right now is not the answer.

I also agree! Your doctor shouldn’t shame you. My friend had an obgyn that made her feel bad about weight gain and not knowing she was pregnant right away. So she found another doctor & said it was the best decision ever. I go to her now and I love her. Glad my friend changed her doc 🥰
