I went to the dr this morning and was told I’m gaining too much weight. I’m 30+2 weeks and I’ve apparently gained 36 lbs. She told me “if you keep gaining weight at this rate, you’re guaranteeing yourself a c-section.” None of my doctors have mentioned my weight gain up until this point (I go to a practice with 7 doctors and see a different one every time).

Maybe she was just trying to scare me, and if so, she definitely did. I’m afraid to eat now. I immediately went and worked out after my appointment. I haven’t eaten anything since leaving the doctor’s office 8 hours ago because I’m afraid of gaining more.

Has anyone had a large weight gain but was still able to deliver vaginally? It would really help put my mind at ease to hear if you did!
