So I had my first midwife appointment and scan yesterday at 10 weeks. I love my midwife, but she always gives me trouble about my weight. I’m 5’5” and 150 (pre-pregnancy). I’m also VERY muscular. I do CrossFit 5x per week and it shows. Yes, I have some chub, but I’m definitely not overweight.

According to my BMI yesterday with the couple pounds I’ve gained I’m considered overweight by .1! Seriously. When will doctors get with the times and do body fat percentage?! I had my body fat measured in February and I was 23.2% which is in the fit range. Not average...FIT! I cried when they told me to only gain 15 pounds. Seriously.

I’m just super hormonal, I know...but I was extremely bothered by it!

Picture for reference. 😔
