Holy weight gain!

So, evidently I've gained 6 lbs in the last 2 weeks! Is that even possible?!

I'm not really that concerned since it still only puts my total weight gain this pregnancy at 12 lbs and I've got less than 6 days to go, but I'm still a little shocked!

	Comment from josamarie » Posted Jan. 21, 2016 3:10am Fun, I will definitely look forward to that! I had zero swelling after my son and actually stopped gaining weight the last couple of weeks, so it threw me for a loop to see that number on the scale!
	Comment from nreiselpn » Posted Jan. 20, 2016 8:39pm It's a fluid shift happens close to delivery and after I had it with 2 of my 4 pregnancy pics days after having my son I looked like I had marshmallows stuffed in my cheeks with in 2-4 weeks after I lost 20 lbs and most if not all was fluid. ..good luck and congrats I'm hoping a happy smooth delivery
	Comment from pbc910 » Posted Jan. 20, 2016 7:35pm In the last 2 weeks of pregnancy I gained 13 lbs! I thought for sure they read the scale wrong but not so. I'm guessing mine was fluid retention because I wasn't eating any different.
