I usually wear a light dress or pants with a tank top/sweater and I always take off my shoes :) mamimami on "Do you try wearing light shoes and clothes when see your OB?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-try-wearing-light-shoes-and-clothes-when-see-your-ob#post-147606 Fri, 04 May 2012 08:19:53 +0000 mamimami 147606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I always drink water all day and then cut myself off a couple hours before the appointment. EXACTLY what I used to do before Weight Watchers! Oh, and you know, I try to go to the bathroom! volksgirl64 on "Do you try wearing light shoes and clothes when see your OB?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-try-wearing-light-shoes-and-clothes-when-see-your-ob#post-147566 Fri, 04 May 2012 07:51:30 +0000 volksgirl64 147566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I do. My appointments have been Fridays, which are casual (jean) days at work but I think jeans are heavy so I'll wear khaki pants instead with slip-off shoes. I don't think it has really made a difference, but I still do it. I was excited for my morning appt so I could get the weigh in done before my day really started! mamabolt on "Do you try wearing light shoes and clothes when see your OB?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-try-wearing-light-shoes-and-clothes-when-see-your-ob#post-147560 Fri, 04 May 2012 07:45:04 +0000 mamabolt 147560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I don't think about what I wear but I do always take my shoes off! But I started getting on the scale backwards so I don't see the number anyway, my midwife suggested it so I wouldn't freak out as much at weight gain that is still in the healthy range like I had been doing. heffalump on "Do you try wearing light shoes and clothes when see your OB?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-try-wearing-light-shoes-and-clothes-when-see-your-ob#post-147552 Fri, 04 May 2012 07:37:51 +0000 heffalump 147552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We weighed ourselves. I always wore a skirt so I could easily lift it up instead of taking everything off.

And yes, I do try to wear something lighter weight but also easy to take off/put back on whenever I go to the obgyn or my primary physician. I also don't put on as much jewelry! enjollah on "Do you try wearing light shoes and clothes when see your OB?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-try-wearing-light-shoes-and-clothes-when-see-your-ob#post-147467 Fri, 04 May 2012 04:28:36 +0000 enjollah 147467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes! Clothes definitely impact your weight! ...and there were times where I accidentally gained too much weight! mediagirl on "Do you try wearing light shoes and clothes when see your OB?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-try-wearing-light-shoes-and-clothes-when-see-your-ob#post-147431 Fri, 04 May 2012 01:39:13 +0000 mediagirl 147431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I didn't even think about it. At this point, nothing helps, I'm still 40lbs heavier and counting... Hahaha. looch on "Do you try wearing light shoes and clothes when see your OB?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-try-wearing-light-shoes-and-clothes-when-see-your-ob#post-147426 Fri, 04 May 2012 01:37:22 +0000 looch 147426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I thought colors! I see what you're saying though! I usually take off my jeans/belt and shoes to be weighed. holdonforonemoreday on "Do you try wearing light shoes and clothes when see your OB?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-try-wearing-light-shoes-and-clothes-when-see-your-ob#post-147423 Fri, 04 May 2012 01:27:47 +0000 holdonforonemoreday 147423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I always remove my shoes and whatever wrap I happen to be wearing. I always joke with the nurses that it's exactly like going to Weight Watchers. My mom and I used to go on Saturday mornings to our meetings and we made sure we were dressed lightly and nothing to eat or drink til after we weighed in. We were hardcore! Now the nurses say to me, "Oh it's ok to gain weight..." Hmmm. cupcakemama on "Do you try wearing light shoes and clothes when see your OB?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-try-wearing-light-shoes-and-clothes-when-see-your-ob#post-147415 Fri, 04 May 2012 01:19:11 +0000 cupcakemama 147415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Wear the heavy stuff early on! My ob didn't weigh me at all, he just went off the ultrasound measurements at each visit Rosie Girl on "Do you try wearing light shoes and clothes when see your OB?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-try-wearing-light-shoes-and-clothes-when-see-your-ob#post-147403 Fri, 04 May 2012 01:03:51 +0000 Rosie Girl 147403@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Haha! It was always a joke with the nurse that I was going to take the scale in the bathroom and strip down to weigh myself!! With my second, they knew me so well and stuff that they let me weigh myself at home in the morning and just tell them what it was (plus I have the same scale as them) lemondrop on "Do you try wearing light shoes and clothes when see your OB?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-try-wearing-light-shoes-and-clothes-when-see-your-ob#post-147397 Fri, 04 May 2012 00:52:13 +0000 lemondrop 147397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I always took off my shoes before getting on the scale! So it was always slip on shoes... of course towards the end that's all that fit anyway.

They usually let me undress first but one time they didnt and now i think about what to wear beforehand in case it happens again! Haha! joyjoy on "Do you try wearing light shoes and clothes when see your OB?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-try-wearing-light-shoes-and-clothes-when-see-your-ob#post-147291 Thu, 03 May 2012 22:01:43 +0000 joyjoy 147291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ At my first appointment I didn't realize they were going to weigh me, and I was wearing leggings, a long sleeve tee and a cardigan. I took off my boots. Since then, I try to wear something similar every time, and I always take off my shoes. chopsuey on "Do you try wearing light shoes and clothes when see your OB?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-try-wearing-light-shoes-and-clothes-when-see-your-ob#post-147273 Thu, 03 May 2012 21:54:03 +0000 chopsuey 147273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm trying to figure out what to wear tomorrow to my OB appt.
