Trying to Conceive Forum

by **rachaels_mom** » Mon Mar 21, 2011 4:39 pm

I'm freaking out, I've used to be overweight after I had dd, I got down to a good weight(5'7" 138) 6 years ago and have maintained the whole time. I took clomid for 5 months and took my last pill in the beginning of feb. It didn't work and I got af, then 10 days later got af again

Now I'm gaining a pound a day and my diet hasn't changed at all and I'm relatively active. I was told not over excert myself with exercise so I go for walks twice a day. A pound a day is crazy!! I've gained 5 pounds in 5 days and it seems there is no end in sight I'm so sad. I have an RE appointment thursday, so I'm hoping for some help.

First, I'll just say that you look FABULOUS in your picture!! Secondly, I know that it's normal for your weight to flucuate (sp?) at least 5 lbs in a day. Like if you weigh yourself in the morning and at night you might notice a 5 lb difference. I hope your RE can give you some definite answers and a solution for the weight gain. I hope it's just a fluke.

Good luck to you!!!!

Thanks, I was working out a lot while that picture was taken, sadly that skirt is a little tight now

But yeah, I know weight can change throughout the day, I weigh myself at that same time every morning wearing the same exact thing and I'm gaining a pound a day

I hope it's a fluke too or something medical. I just figured with all of ladies trying to get pregnant and a lot of us taking meds to do it maybe somebody had a reaction like I'm having.
