weight gain causing EXTREME sadness--long

November 12, 2004

Ok tell me I am not alone!!!!!!! Had a doc appointment today and was

DREADING the scale.. Last night, I was HYSTERICAL because of my

weight gain. My poor hubby did not know what to do with me. Finally

was able to fall asleep and woke up and hubby was alseep on the

couch. Logically, I knew he slept on the couch b/c he was so

congested and didn't want to snore and keep me awake (he does this

periodically when he is congested). So, I knew he was being

considerate yet when I saw him on the couch I was irrational and

thought, " He knew I needed TLC and he didn't come to bed with me. "

So, I started to cry and I snapped at him and couldn't stop crying. I

was eating breakfast (b/c I KNOW I have to eat for the baby) but I

didn't want to eat. So, everytime I took a bite I would cry harder.

It isn't easy to eat when you are crying did you know that!?!!? lol I

had a very hard time getting myself under control and was on the

brink of tears most of the day. In fact a few times I had to walk

away and hide in the bathroom until I was under control. ON the way

to my doc appointment I was crying. Told the nurse not to tell me

what I weighed (turned my back) and then cried with the doctor too.

She says I am doing fine and she understands I am weighing in clothes

and in the afteroon. So, before I left I got her to tell me the

number. I gained 5 pounds this past 2 weeks. I weighed with my

clothes on this morning and they weighed 3 pounds. So to make myself

feel better I am saying I only gained 2!!!!!!!!!!! I am 32 weeks and

doc says this is the time when baby really starts to grow. She

insited that I am doing fine and I shouldn't worry. Hard not to.

Doesn't help that my bowels are not regular. Doc says that may be

some of the weight as well. Ok if you got this far, thanks! I guess

I am not looking for advice per say, just reassurance that I am not

alone!!!! Thanks ladies for all you do!
