OH!~!! I forgot to leave a tip... Ummmm.. Don't look at magazines. Cover all full length mirrors. Look at yourself only from the waist up. Enjoy your boobs. Take pictures but don't look at them until after you have the baby. Buy clothes for after the baby that are in between your new and old size. Then you'll feel accomplished when you start fitting into new clothes but not your sexy stuff. And the ultimate tip, visit the nursery at the hospital! Best of luck to you!

GIRL... I started out at 125 lbs. my first pregnancy. I gained over 100 lbs. I was not diabetic (borderline) and I did not over eat. I swelled up with water and the first night in the hospital I lost almost 50 lbs. My next pregnancy I started at 150 and gained around 80. The last one which was a total surprise I started at 165 and gained only 60. All in all - I had the healthiest most beautiful babies ever. They had no problems what so ever. I would do it all again. My sister saw my weight gain and starved herself on purpose. Her babies were 5 pounds!!!!! I would rather have stretch marks any day over worrying about a baby having to catch up on health.
