Well some intense neasuea led to some weight loss so he was happy at the last appointment. Just can't win at least he's concerned I suppose. We had our first ultrasound today and got to see and hear the heartbeat and I am officially 7weeks 5 days according to the size of Blip. Could not be more excited even if it isn't quite as far along as we thought due date is now January 23 :)

I gained 33 lbs and lost it all within a year. I think that it is a little silly for the doctor to panic over 3 lbs when we know that weight measurements fluctuate even a couple pounds due to the time of day measures, inaccuracy of the scale, etc.

Ladybell, almost no one gains at the textbook rate. At your next appointment, you might have gained nothing! An I that's true, your doctor will probably scold you for NOT gaining ENOUGH. Really.

I gained 55 lbs with my first and then lost 60 lbs within 7 months after giving birth by breastfeeding only (no change in exercise routine). I personally wouldn't worry about your weight at this point. I know some people who gain it "by the book" and others who put lots of pounds on some weeks and none or lose on other weeks. You need to eat! :)

So my doctor is concerned because I've gained 3 lbs at 7 week. Apparently I'm only supposed to gain 25lbs according to his rule book, and this will cause me to gain closer to 35lbs. Has anyone else been given a rough time about weight gain? I'm scarred to eat too much now, but I know part of it was my huge increase of insulin needs. And thank you Kate :)

I just found out today I'm pregnant!! Best Mother's Day ever, and explains why I've been having such a hard time keeping my blood sugars down. It's our first so I'm freaked out and excited :) looking forward to getting feedback from everyone for the next months. Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers and all the aspiring mothers here :)

Hi Lilli i would be interested in why you were thinking about a diabetic breastfeeding group? In my experience of bf it doesn't really make a difference. It can be harder to establish due to most ladies being made to have c sections and you will probably need a snack when you feed for a while but thats about it. There are many really supportive breastfeeding groups on Facebook etc already. I am a nearly qualified breastfeeding consultant and would be very interested in your experiences.

Would anyone be interested in starting a separate group about [diabetic] breast feeding? We could try to find an experienced lactation consultant to moderate it.
