Avatar m tn I would venture to guess many of these are done while in prison with unsterile items. I wonder if anyone knew the stats of what the percentage of people in prison who have HepC is? Do they even test inmates for HepC? It's just that I don't think they know what it can can do to them. Is HepC treatment readily available to them?
408496 tn?1269603350 and it is typicall for me to gain/loose water weight of 5 pounds in a week. I have stayed around 157 for the past few months or so - but no real weight gain. I do have a belly bulge though. Is that normal for first pregnancy? How about everyone else?
1530342 tn?1405016490 Jeffs is living in protective custody in a single occupancy cell in the high security Powledge Prison unit in Palestine, southeast of Dallas. He is one of a handful of the estimated 150,000 inmates in the state prison system who is in protective custody, which allows inmates in solitary confinement to receive visitors, use the phone, and enjoy other privileges. Jeffs is restricted to his cell for 22 hours a day, and released only for recreation and showering.
Avatar m tn I saw this last night before i went to bed and I really did not know how to respond to your question without sounding blunt our rude. No the pills are not causing your weight gain. You may be gaining water weight, meaning your kidneys are not filtering as well as they should Our the pills have made you not as active as you would be off and maybe it is your choice of foods knowing you enjoy eating while taking pills Maybe it is all the above You would need to speak with a Dr.
296076 tn?1371334474 stop looking! what are you going to do now anyway? when you go to the dr. stand on the scale backwards so you can't see! lol. with my first i gained 44 lbs. and the second i said i was going to only "allow" myself 25. yea, right, i gained 42! i had a dr. who said as long as you weren't morbidly obese to begin with, and you don't gain 100 lbs in pregnancy, don't worry about it. she was right, there is no point, especially as you get near the end.
296076 tn?1371334474 that they want to see to at least a 25 - 35lbs weight gain by the end of the pregnancy and how people gain that weight varies from person to person. Some gain a little weight gradually, and some hardly gain at all in the first trimester....but then in the middle the weight comes pouring on. Im also told that the majority of the weight by the third trimester is mostly fluids and actual weight of the baby. My main concern is keeping the baby healthy....
Avatar f tn If she says it is ok then I am not going to worry about it. Nearly every woman will gain or lose weight a little differently so I don't stress about mine. It is interesting to see how our bodies react differently to pregnancy though. Good luck with your little one!
Avatar f tn m still a little below the average weight gain for 22 weeks but geeze that makes me nervous. The nurse said just dont gain 7 pounds every month... Anyone else gain weight similar to me ?
958510 tn?1246820471 Certain medications like antidepressants cause weight gain. Late night snacking and poor sleep too can cause weight gain. Polycystic ovary too causes weight gain, hence has to be ruled out by an ultrasound of abdomen. Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
Avatar f tn Your dr needs to relax. I've gained 5 lbs in 3 weeks and have my appt today. Last month I only gained 2 lbs in 4 weeks. I don't think all weight gain is even throughout pregnant like they think it should be. For me it doesn't work like that. Some weeks I gain more, some I don't gain at all. Don't worry, I think you're still on track for normal weight gain.
Avatar f tn Im going to be 6 months and lost weight in the first trimester now im back at my original weight 128 so i jus gained the 7lbs i lost due to morning sickness...
Avatar f tn Im over weight as well...but u do have to gain weight in ur pregnacy..
7758733 tn?1402589420 I think it is fine. Over a 2 week period I gained 8 lbs and over the next 2 week period I gained half a pound. I'm 33 weeks and have gained 25 lbs in all so just because you have a sudden weight gain doesn't mean you will gain excessively necessarily.
Avatar n tn Before my dad got out of prison he was on speed. Well my dad is a real family man and he even felt that prison was the way to get him to stop and we all thought so too. Well I think he's doing it again. Him and his friend kristi often take visits to the "storage building" at like 2 3 in the morning and stay gone for hours he's losing weight and he stays up all night long sometimes. are there any sure-fire ways of knowing?
Avatar f tn It's that special time of week!!! Where you can compare your weight gain/loss with others who are due when you are, or amongst other TTCers! I haven't lost a SINGLE POUND even though I'm doing everything I'm supposed do. VERY frustrating.... Thanks, PCOS, you jerk!
Avatar f tn Of course you'll gain weight.
Avatar f tn I'm 14 weeks and lost 6 pounds in my first trimester.
Avatar n tn You gain the most weight in the last 8 weeks. So you might barely gain now, and then pack it on fast toward the end which is normal.
Avatar f tn I know this is probably a stupid question, but I'm 36weeks pregnant and since my last doctors appointment I haven't gained any weight. I didn't gain weight in the 1st trimester due 2 sickness, but in the 3rd I've been pretty steady with my weight gain...at the very least a poun a week. And now it's been almost 2 weeks and still no weight gain. Could that mean anything? Or is it just normal? Thanks in advance!
199954 tn?1294944669 There are some people with weight gain with thyroid replacement - but most weight gain is (unfortunately) lifestyle. It is important to make sure the TSH in target range -- which may be 0.2-0.5 depending on the risk of your thyroid cancer.
362249 tn?1441315018 I tend to lose a lot of weight with my pregnancies in the first trimester and never gain all of it back. I am not a little girl so maybe that is why my dr is never concerned but with my son I was smaller than I am now and he told me that as long as I'm not starving my self and am eating a well balanced diet and taking my prenatals there's nothing to stress over. But if this is something yall are really concerned about you should talk to your dr about it.
Avatar f tn The baby, waters, placenta, extra blood etc all make up quite abit of the weight you gain.
Avatar f tn I'm 36+2 I've gained about 2lbs in the 3rd trimester & 4lbs in the 2nd but nothing in my first trimester
613536 tn?1294238447 I know some people who have gained like 12 pounds in their first trimester! When did you first start to gain weight? This is my first pregnancy and I have my first u/s on 12/12!!!!
5609181 tn?1375332372 I gained all of my weight in the 3rd trimested except 4lbs. I've gained 16 total now... & 12 has been in the past 2 months.
