im in exactly the same position, 12 weeks pregnant, and snacking on crap. I spend ages trying to think of something a fancy for dinner and end up having a sandwich, because everything makes me feel ill. I hate fruit and veg but i try get my 5 portions a day by drinking 100% fruit juice (pineapple) and forcing an apple or 2 down. Ive asked my friends who have had babys and asked whether they ate healthy during pregnancy and they didn't either, and their babies are fine, so try not to worry to much! (although i know its hard)

pregnancy if you feel alright otherwise

OUCH!! Hopefully we only do that twice a year- I cooked way too much- and ate too much- tums may help - or even manzanitas tea-and don't lay down until your food is better digested-D

I wouldn't dream of cracking jokes on you!\nI'll write more in a minute sorry\n\nHoney, take it easy don't be discouraged because 60 lbs is not that much if your baby is 6 months. You took 9 months to put that weight on, remember? Now it may a good time to start shedding those, but  your precious baby comes first (BTW, congratulations!!) so you don't want to take diet pills or anything that might get you nervous, anxious or stressed out, or also starving and weak. \n\nSo please go slowly, forget those brownies for a while, go for fresh fruits and veggies, whole cereals, skim dairy , lean meats, fish, forget the seasonings, mayo, heavy cream, ice cream, cookies, cakes, etc. You can have some occasionally, for example on Sundays, but don't eat them on a daily basis. If you fill up on soup, veggies and lean meats, you won't feel the need for sugaries and if you do go for a yogurt or baked apple with just a little sugar, or a sundae made with fruits, you'll be needing all the vitamins you can get! \n\nTry to walk a little, for example stroll down with your baby, remain as active as you can, be dinamic and joyful. You have to be at your best not only for you and hubby but especially for your girl, she needs you at your best. No one will be judging you for your baby fat, I assure you! Just go slowly, take it easy and don't obsess (I am repeating myself, sorry...) \n\nLife is beautiful! Your daughter is beautiful! You are beautiful! Just forsake processed foods, cut just a tiny bit from each of your portions, be active, and you'll start seeing some progress, I promise you.\n\nGood luck! All the best for you and Baby!!

Call your doctor.  They can tell you what, if anything, would be safe for you to take right now.  Otherwise, maybe try some crackers and something carbonated like Sprite or Mt. Dew.  Also, if you're taking prenatal vitamins, try to change the time of day that you're taking them and see if you get a better result that way.  Been there, done that with the morning sickness.  I sympathize... not fun at all!  Good luck!

For me sometimes I just eat if I am bored even though I know I'm NOT hungry. You can't exactly get rid of them but try doing other things to keep your mind off of food!

walking.  I did a lot of that and all the baby weight went away.  Plus, your little one gets some fresh air as well. :)

To make it simple, you could get two Cornish game hens!  Use some prepared stuffing, and get any other dishes at a deli that you could warm up.  Throwing the birds into the oven isn't hard, and you could still have a real dinner.  Besides, kids like having a miniature "turkey" of their own!  And you would get to smell that good aroma for awhile!\n\nMost supermarkets have such a variety of prepared foods these days.  And many have a salad bar type thing that you can buy just what you want.  \n\nIt is hard to be away from family on holidays, but call them and have a visit that way.  Just make it a special day for you and your daughter.  I'm sure being that pregnant, you would feel more comfortable being home than to eat out anyway.  Rent a couple of movies.  Watch the parade on TV. \n\nGood luck with the new baby!

Was it your first pregnancy?  I have heard women complain about weight gain after having a baby, and how hard it is to lose.  Maybe that's your body's metabolism reacting to the pregnancy.  A few of my friends that have had an ab*rt**n still lactate.  It's funny-I call them human coffee creamers! :)\nAnyway, you may also want to look at your diet.  Don't \n"go on a diet", persay.  Have a diet.  Eat the same way all the time and you can cut parts out without eliminating an entire food group.  Like sweets, for example.  That's how binges happen.  If you leave those out, you're more likely to binge on bad stuff later anyway.  If you keep the "bad stuff" in your diet, you'll probably wind up eating less of it, really.  On a binge, I know I could eat 2 packages of cookies, a cake, need I go on.  You're less likely to eat the all that in a day's time.  Also, do you emotional eat?  That's a huge culprit for weight gain.  Women get the a*s end of pretty much everything.  Ugh.  Hope all goes well.

Eat more frequently but in smaller portions. Of course, exercise as well. See your doctor for advice.

Joining a class or support group is a good way to keep your motivation. When eating your meals make healthy choices. And remember portion control. Eat lots of veggies and cut back on the amount of meat and starchy fillers in your diet. Last but certainly not least look at those beautiful babies and know you want to be fit and healthy for them. Dont beat yourself up over it either you just gave birth 2 months ago, it takes time.

This is from experience, and I think it might be the single most important thing to remember while you are pregnant ... watch your weight, especially in the third trimester.  My Gynae told me to feed my cravings as it was my body telling me what I needed, so I ate with abandon; chocolate, pizza etc. etc. and put on a ton of weight in the last two months of pregnancy.  \n\nFour years later I am still struggling to get rid of the excess weight, not to mention the stretch marks!\n\nIt is hard when all you can think about is chocolate and nothing will get it out of your head except actually eating one, but now I feel like an absolute idiot.\n\nSo that, I feel, is the single most important piece of advice regarding appearance that I can give.

try doing somethings for yourself a girls night out or take yourself to a movie even if it means leaving the kids with a sitter and that will help some of the stress from doing nothing but work and the kids and when you munch try eating things that are lighter and healthful it would be good for you and the kids also when you feel a hunger pain coming on try getting a no calorie of low calorie drink sometimes when we feel hungry its actually thirst...good luck i know im still batteling this myself

I was under alot of stress when I was pregnant, and I gave birth to a healthy 7 lb. 11 oz little boy...as long as you eat right, and take your prenatal vitamins you should be ok...try doing things to relieve your stress though cause it really isn't good for the baby or for you...good luck and congrats on the little edition!

Hey, that's a good question. I'm pregnant too and I'm the same way. I don't like having sex very much anymore either, I'm never in the mood. As a matter of fact, I don't even really like cuddling! Our horomones are very messed up right now, it's not us, I've already asked about this. Don't fret, and try to explain that to him.

Congrats!\nmake sure you stay away from junk food. take the baby out for a walk everyday (provided its not raining or freezing). if you run, you can get a stroller especially for that. also, you can use the baby as a weight.to work on your arms.

Too much food - too little exercise
