Mindy - August 4

Hi. am having quadruplets and i am huge!!!! 3 boys 1 girl. i am about 3/5 done with this pregnancy. Weight gain: 68 pounds, belly size: you don't want to know. i am stuck sitting on my couch. i am so huge that i pratically cannot do anything else. How can i "stay in shape" while on the couch? is there anything i can do except sit and read?

just lay on your left side, when you lay... (helps with BP so u can avoid pre-eclampsia), and use lots of pillows under your belly, behind your back,etc to give you some stability. I only had twins, but my short waist, their size, and the way I carried them had me measuring 52 at 36 weeks, and I only had one dress that fit me verrry tightly around the stomach. I just wore that dress and laid around. I gained 55 pounds, and did nothing in the way of excercise except take care of my 3 year old daughter. I managed to lose all of my weight, though, and then some, getting down to 109 (I'm 5'3") and treated myself to a tummy tuck after. I look back on the pictures now and wonder how I ever... EVER... got back to normal. It's a miracle we can stretch so much.
