I gave every baby item we had away to crisispregnancy centers. I am so excited, and still in a state ofdisbelief. We've had unprotected sex for about 13 years, total. Ican't believe it!!!This is truly a miracle. I know God made it happen. I still canhardly get my head around it, but I know I am thankful. I wasn'tlooking to get pregnant. We weren't trying. Well, we weren't NOTtrying, but we knew that God would have to give us a miracle if itever happened, because my husband's fertility problems are so bad.Anyway, I made it to 58 pounds lost, a weight of 187, and for now that's the end of the line. I am going to keep eating the way I have been, and keep walking at least. I will talk to the doctor about how much I should gain - I am thinking it will be no more than about 10 or 15 pounds. And each checkup I will see if I am gaining enough and adjust my calories accordingly. That - and listen to my body if it is hungry or craving something! That's my plan - so I guess I will resume my 100-pound adventure in 2008!!!!Twinmom Expecting? Get great news right away with email Auto-Check.Try the Beta.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Thats great! Congratulations!!! Hey though, talk to your doctor about the fact that you have been trying to eat healthly and lose weight. He may be able to give you some great help on how to eat healthly for the baby and still stay on track weight wise. You can still have a big healthly baby and still watch your weight gain. Your doctor should be more then willing to help you with any concerns to make sure you are eating properly for both you and your baby. I hope you enjoy your pregnacy. > Well, guys, I guess my weight loss is over for a little while!

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Thanks, everyone! I'll try to respond a little bit... My husband is in a total state of shock. We just didn't beleive that this could happen! Well, we knew all things are possible with God, but we sure didn't THINK it was going to happen! He is a little less dazed today, but still just mostly shocked. Regarding weight management - I plan to take my journals in with me and thoroughly discuss my nutritional needs and how much I shoud gain since I am still about 40 pounds overweight. I am thinking that 10 to 15 pounds should be plenty, and I hope the doctor will help me come up with a calorie plan to keep to whatever goal we set. Ideally, I would like to behave myself, keep walking, keep eating right, and maybe come out of the pregnancy with a lower body fat percentage than what I went in with. My twins turned 5 at the end of December. I didn't want to tell them about the baby yet - mostly in case something happened - but my husband said we should tell them, so we did. They are very excited, and picked out some toys today that they say the new baby can have. Feels like I missed responding to something, but I am pooped, and as one of you advised, I am going to rest now! Off to bed I go.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Oh yeah - that's the question I missed! Well, there is no more chance of twins for this pregnancy than any normal pregnancy, I think. Since my twins were the result of in vitro fertilization, and not something that runs in the family, I am pretty sure our chances of twins again would be pretty low. But I guess I will know more after next Friday when I get to go to the doctor. Twinmom > > Congrats !!!!!
