    @thefridge1982 I told the office I had a history of disordered eating and I think I might need a different approach to weight management counseling. I think they will get the hint . I already feel so much better knowing it probably won’t come up again

    @qazwsxedcrfvtgbyhnujmikol Her face was that she was genuinely surprised concerned by the gain . I don’t think it was intentional. But I am not overeating so my messed up brain just hears what your doing is wrong and pick up disordered eating again . I am huge in my belly with this baby for some...

    @scarletinwonderland She’s a great doctor I love her . I’m not upset with her it’s not the world’s responsibility to navigate my trigger but it was so triggering for me . I just told her office about my history. It was the use of the word over eating that made me feel so terrible

    @herbiemailey There in kilograms at the office and I’m bad at math so that part usually doesn’t bother me because I don’t know what the weight is anyway . First trimester she said I wasn’t gaining much weight and to make sure I was eating. Last pregnancy she didn’t mention my weight at all

    @rehem We have my chart which we can relay things but it’s embarrassing because the whole care team can see it . I might just do that though

    @rehem I appreciate you so much . I think I need to tell her . I don’t think I could hear that at every appointment and not start to relapse. I cannot believe how one comment has sent me . Thank you so much for sharing.

    @jesking I’ve been enjoying sweets but like one a day . I do not eat or enjoy sweets when I’m not pregnant so it’s been a fun different part of my pregnancy. I only eat a breakfast of like eggs and toast and then a pretty healthy dinner with some snack in between . I don’t really eat fast food...

    @sintje7 I don’t know . I gained this much with my first . I kinda questioned the issue and then it seemed like she sensed my anxiety and tried to quickly move past it.

    @jon12345 She said to avoid overeating at summer bbqs , fun summer stuff etc. She does not know about my disordered eating history. She basically said four pounds in a month was a lot . I feel like crying . I have a history of depression and anxiety but I’m so far removed from it . It’s been...

    @paul999 Yeah I don’t know why she said something but I agree with the other comment that maybe she was worried about gestational Or preclampasia. I am not eating a ton. I’m very active everyday. It has caused this feeling of panic in me honestly.

Then I...

    @fathersjoy I haven’t had these issues in years. I’ve remained a healthy weight for about 8 years without obsessing about it but I’ve also never been overweight . It’s not something that I struggle with anymore but to have a doctor I respect tell me to watch what I eat was very triggering for...

    @fathersjoy I don’t think she was shaming me but my brain does not process stuff like that rationally . To me it’s like a control thing and tisk tisk you’ve gained four pounds don’t overeat tells me I need to regain control and you can’t really do that when your pregnant. I know I’m not...
