Pregnancy and Slimming World

Aw bless me too I've been in floods of tears all day :( x

Aw bless! It does tend to make us a bit over emotional! As has already been said you will wonder when they arrive how you ever managed without the two!

Hi girls.
Am about 5 weeks now with baby 2 and I am scared stupid If I'm honest about if I'll love this baby as much as I love my darling girl Imogen. Following s world doing pretty well at the moment. Whew all a lot for my brain this early. :) x

I felt like this with Daniel. I was def not excited like I was withy first.it didn't help I had miscarriage month before &got pregnant quick with Daniel. Felt better around 16 weeks. When I found out sex I was a bit gutted at having a boy - I never had a boy and was worried I won't love him. I was excited by end of pregnancy and as soon as saw him I loved him. My worries were unfounded.7 weeks on & I am so glad to have a boy!
 
I just keep looking at my daughter thinking I don't want her to miss our cause of a new baby and that our little dynamic of just us two going to be so messed up!! I just feel confused :( I didn't expect to feel this way when I was the one who spoke to my husband about another cub. He couldn't understand the tears and he rushed home from work thinking I was ill. Poor man :) x

It is a strange feeling, I was worried people would be all over baby, or I'd be so busy getting baby ready that Jack would be pushed out but when people were coming round they were speaking to Jack first before cooing over her, many of them got him a little pressie as well as baby and as for us I get Jack to help me out with Naomi if she's takin up a bit of time and he loves it and he's v good with her. I always make sure if I tell him 'in a minute' I take extra time with him to do what he's asking, instead of quickly doing it and going back to Naomi. You'll understand what we mean when your lo is there. I expected to feel the same way with my first when I was pregnant or just given birth and I never at first but it quickly changes trust me :) xx
 
Hey guys, haven't posted in ages, think the last time I did post I was saying I was going to join SW as didn't want to put loads of weight on, due to SPD and other factors I never got to join a group but have done my best from home instead. Have put 4kgs on so far and considering at my growth scan on Wednesday bubs was measuring in at 5lb2 I'm quite pleased with that. Definitely want to join a group when baby is here though as I need socialisation with adults, I miss people lol.

Can I join the week after giving birth or do I need to wait a while?

Hi :) I'm due in two weeks and hoping to join a week after, considering there are no complications with the birth!

Are you planning on breast feeding? I'm not sure I breast feeding will affect weight loss! And I'm pretty sure you can have more hex a and b on extra easy

Xxx
 
the theory says if you breastfeed you burn up to 500 kcal a day, and it help with the healing and belly going back to pre-pregnancy size (womb and things, some ladies said they can feel the womb shrinking while they feed :) ) and that's without the benefits for the baby :D few slogans i have seen in my work:

BREAST IS BEST
SIMPLY THE BREAST
BOTTLE FEEDING IS FOR SUCKERS
and last one I can remember it was on a child t-shirt
I WILL NOT DRINK MILK FROM ANY OLD COW
as you can see our local breastfeeding group is quite assertive :D
 
Hi everyone :) had a very naughty three weeks of binge eating on an all you can eat cruise but I've started afresh today. I've had a good SW day with plenty of speed food & only 3 syns (so far). Hope everyone is well :) xxx
 
Home at last cuddling with my two babies!

Im honestly having a flaming nightmare! I eat healthy for a day or two and then pig out. Find my appetite comes and goes so like yesterday I was so hungry all day, today I had no appetite at all and all I could stomach was toast until tea time. I'm finally feeling a lot better about going to the gym and have kept walking etc so am hoping it will help. I'm just doing my best to eat sw as and when I can, not go too mad on the rubbish and not worry about it all too much until the baby arrives!

Eta I'm about 10 weeks i reckon so am hoping things settle down soon!
 
One week left for me!!! I've gained in total about 4 stone through my pregnancy.....not a great example but I have enjoyed it and have been attending class up to a few weeks ago - I rejoined at 26 weeks and only gained a stone in the last 13 weeks which I'm pretty impressed with.....!

It's only hard for me to say my actual gain as I gained half a stone on my honeymoon, then another half stone over Xmas and NY so as I fell pregnant in December I'm not really sure I had a chance to lose that extra stone.....if I can discount that gain I've only gained 3 stone!!!!

Congrats to all the new mums to be on here xxxx

Heres is my 39 week bump piccie!!!!

You look lovely Ellebear - and not like you've gained 4 stone at all.

I don't have a bump yet, don't think I'm going to get one at all now lol.
