Seriously, I haven't gained an ounce. Well actually, I suppose for every pound my baby gains, I have lost one. I have weighted exactly the same for the past 6 months. I actually lost 15 pounds my 1st trimester due to morning sickness, and I never gained that back either. I have heard many times that it's not really beneficial for a woman who weights over 200 pounds to gain any weight during pregnancy. ANd I haven't gained an ounce. I am still 15 pounds less than I was when I got pregnant. Not for lack of trying. I really have tried to gain at least a few pounds, but no luck. My doctor doesn't seem to be concerned...so I'm not too worried about it. Strange, who would have thought that getting pregnant would have given me such a great figure!!!
