I love Poppy, she’s just so joyful! Jackson is just so cute, I wanna squeeze him!

I gained between 50 and 60 pounds with each pregnancy and never had a problem losing it. I think women will gain what they gain no matter what. Genetically we are all different so we can’t expect that the amount of weight one woman gains is the right amount for another. I think Poppy looks fabulous and her son is adorable!!

He is so CUTE!!! I am so happy for her. She is going to make a GREAT mother!!!

1st off, the lil guy is a CUTIE and I commend Poppy Montgomery’s honesty on this matter{weight gain}I’m no Hollywood actress or model but {I’d like to say} when I was pregnant with my 1st son,I gained 87 lbs and I won’t lie I LOVED to eat and I,too had alot of medical problems{pre-eclampsia,high blood pressure and placenta previa to name a few}and my doctor NEVER said that I was gaining too much,every person is different and come to find out when I had my C-section,my son weighed 6 lbs and 14 ozs and my placenta weighed 14 lbs{which was causing the majority of my problems} So,the guidelines on what a “healthy” weight gain should be is different for all women.

I meant unhealthy weight as it pertains to giving birth. A high body weight gain– can’t it lead to hypertension, high blood pressure, pre acclampica…If you are that heavy doesn’t it endanger the mothers life and possibly a safe delivery of the child? That was the distinction I was making.

She looks great now, and she and her baby are healthy so that’s all that matters!

Wow, I watched Without A Trace religiously and never knew she has an accent…Baby is too cute

Actresses are usually underweight to start, so I think they can gain more. Milla Jovovich gained 70 lbs! I’m not sure what the healthy limit is though.

Clearly she loves her child so that is great. But isn’t it unhealthy for the women to gain that much weight? I thought most doctors recomend a women gain no more than 35 pounds during pregnancy? If that is true, she gained almost double that amount!!
