Well, I got my Rhogam shot on Friday in my butt! No, I did not do well. Bill went with me and she had me stand and lean over the counter. I didn't like this because I am used to laying on my side. I got very light headed and thought I was going to pass out. Bill stood next to me in case I did pass out. I was fine when she walked in the room and I was looking the other way. I told her right off, I don't want to see the needle, she said fine. Of course, when I went to lean on the counter the needle was sitting right there!! That did it for me and I started shaking and got a huge lump in my throat. Ugh... at least it is over.Anyways, the baby is doing good, heartbeat sounds good and measurements were good. Downfall, I lost a pound. She said I am only 6 pounds above my baseweight. :bawl: I don't know what's wrong! I swear I am eating, I don't know what else to do. :bawl: I have to go back in 2 weeks, so hopefully I gain weight again. I hate having this nurse look at me like I am an anorexic.

Yes, I do take vitamins. Thank you for the positive note on the weight gain. The nurse also recommended that I try drinking some Ensure.

Certainly don't feel that you have to answer this if you don't want to, but how big were you before you got pregnant - underweight/average/overweight? I only ask because I was overweight before I got PG and at this point - 23 wks along I think - I haven't gained any weight overall and my doctor is perfectly fine with that. As long as the baby is growing appropriately I don't see why it's a big deal unless you were really skinny to begin with in which case it may be unhealthy - but for you moreso than the baby.

My normal weight is 155 lbs. After I had Alyssa 4 yrs ago, I took Zoloft for about 1 1/2 yrs. My weight went up to 170 lbs and I have had a hard time losing it since then and it was from the Zoloft. So my starter weight was 170 lbs and I am at 176 lbs right now. But what I am wondering is whatever hormone the zoloft turned off, may have been turned back on from my pregnancy. I don't know if this is really possible, but if it is it would make more sense to me. ![]() |

hang in there. I'm not a doctor (mcduh) but I'd think if you are eating healthy and taking your vitamins,,,then the baby should be healthy, too. I know its hard not to worry when you are the one incubating a precious life.
