JoJo- Don't let anyone ever make you feel like you are a bad mother. As for that Dr I would tell her that she is employed to look after you through your pregnancy and if she cant do that in a professional way i.e without the criticism and judgement about your weight then you wiould like to be referred to a diff Ob. When I was in hossy before I had my DD I had a Dr tell me(because he couldn't get a vein) that if I didnt lose weight I was going to die and what would happen to my baby then. I put in a complaint that it was unprofessional since I was there being treated for my Pg and not there to be belittled by an insensitive and arrogant trainee Dr.
I was 120 with my 1st pg 130 with my 2nd 135 with DD and now I'm somewhere btween 145-155. I put on almost 20 kg with my DD in fluid in 3 weeks I was in hossy.
I'm a size 26 and yes I found it extremely annoying that I couldn't even find a bloody maternity bra let alone something that would fit me when I actually started to "show"! I eventually did in bras n things but it was on the bottom rack right at the back- how the hell a normal pg woman could get it but an o/w one, I had to get the sales assisstant to get it.
I've been watching this thread since it was started but have been too scared to post but after reading the latest posts it has infuriated me as to how these so called "professionals" can be so gutless and heartless.
GRRRRRRRRRRRRR. Breath. Think Happy thoughts.
