Weight and Pregnancy

Okay y’all, let’s be serious. If you’ve had a baby before and gave into those pregnancy hormones, you probably didn’t “drop the baby weight” immediately after. Or you did and you slowly gained it back. Either way, here we are baby #2. I am 40 pounds heavier than I was with my first. I am on the taller side, 5”7, but I am still not 100% comfortable with my body from my first pregnancy (my daughter just turned one) and I find that I am pregnant again! Obviously I know what NOT to do this time around to keep off the weight, but is anyone else BMI 33 or higher and concerned?! I want a healthy baby and another great delivery... just nervous that I still have a lot of my pregnancy weight from the first time!
