My DH was with me at most of my OB apts so he knew how much I weighed throughout my pregnancy. I was pretty embarrassed.... but I guess not enough to hide it from him.
Now that I'm not pregnant anymore I don't share it with him, but I accidentally might have let it slip. I told him I was 6 pounds away from prebaby weight, so it just depends if he remembers my prebaby weight or not.

Not really, but one time when I was pregnant with one of our boys he said, "wow, you're almost as heavy as I am!" Guess who got punched?

yes! i shout it from the rooftops right now because i'm losing my pregnancy weight lol.

Yes. Pre pregnancy and during pregnancy I announce my findings to him every time I weigh myself. He finds this amusing. It helps me stay accountable if I get to a number that I'm embarrassed to say outloud to him.

Yes, because he comes to me with all my appointments and we discuss it.

Haha he has no clue. Although if it ever comes up he always guesses something far less than my actual weight. Not sure if he's really that bad at guesstimating, or if he's just trying to flatter me!

He didn't until we were around 9 weeks pregnant. I've always been very self conscious because I am much heavier than he is. He's heard the number a few times at appointments, but for the most part we stick to how many pounds I've lost or gained, not the actual number. Hubs is more than okay with it, I'm the one who has the issue, but he's also a really tall beanpole.

Yeah, it's not really a secret 
I've always been within about 10 pounds of him since I'm so tall, but my pregnancy weight has pushed me past him. I'll still crack him over the head with an egg if he's not nice about it, though

Always kept the full truth away from him until this pregnancy. Now I don't care. I weigh more than him for now, about 5-7 pounds, and once I reach his weight we can lose weight together. No doubt he will lose it twice as fast as I will... haha.

Yep! Before I got pregnant we kept a daily food and weight log. Now he still knows because I announce it every morning.

He knows how much weight I"ve gained during pregnancy...pre pregnancy, I don't think he ever asked and it's not like I randomly volunteered the information lol.

i'm not sure he knows--not because i try to keep it a secret, i just don't think it's on his radar. actually the person i try to keep in the dark about my weight is myself! i don't look at the scale when i go to the doctor's office (i feel like i might start obsessing about my weight if i knew).
blogger / wonderful cherry / 21616 posts
Yeah he's always known my weight and I don't care. I know his too although he is more likely to try and hide it from me. We're similar in that if we don't stay consistent in working out and eating right we gain weight. After we got married he stopped working out and gained 20+ lbs. he's doing better, he sees me working hard to lose weight and he thinks its a contest lol

@erwoo: HAh! I would have punched him, too.
Yeah he knows---we work out together and we're both trying to lose weight right now so we both know.

He totally does. We're both trying to lose weight, so he told me when he was down to the 220s and I told him when I was down to the 180s

Pre-pregnancy, no. During and after, yes. The first visit or two to the OB I asked the nurse not to say the number out loud and told DH to look away, but I quickly stopped caring. Whenever he tried to guess how much I weighed he always (and honestly) low-balled it by about 25 lbs, so it doesn't bother me now

hell no! he knows i have a rule about him needed to he 50lbs heavier than i am. i much prefer him to be 75 over, but that's not happening at the moment!
eggplant / 11287 posts
He does now, but he didn't when I was pregnant. I wouldn't let him look at the scale when I got weighed. I reached the 170s and that was embarrassing to me because he doesnt even weigh that much! I didn't want him to know I weighed more than him.
GOLD / cantaloupe / 6581 posts
Yep! We are both trying to lose weight, so we weigh ourselves in front of each other. Keeps us accountable!
grapefruit / 4187 posts
Yes he does. Since we've been together I've lost 30% of my body weight and helped him lose weight as well so it's something we've been open about to each other.

@mrs. bird: My hubs is about 75lbs over my pre pregnancy weight. When he was playing football he had so much extra muscle that he always had me by at least 100lbs. I miss those days! Either way... I'm glad I married someone who is 6'6" because I know I'll never weigh as much as he does!! : )
pear / 1787 posts
Yes, because I vent about it all the time since I'm very unhappy with my weight.

@MamaMoose: Same here!! My hubs is 6'4-6'5 and right around 300 +/- 5lbs....but I just really hope I never get anywhere near that weight!! (especially me being 5'2!) hahah
But to answer the question, yes DH knows my weight. We are both trying to lose weight, so we are both encouraging each other!

I tell him every time I weigh myself... Not that he asks or really cares. Ha!

The last time we went to L&D they asked for my most recent weight, and my clinic records in KG. Obviously DH was there and was beyond confused because he thought I was talking pounds and lying like it was the DMV, lol. Once he figured it out he told me that couldn't POSSIBLY be how much I weigh.
Gee, thanks dear...

@MamaMoose: DH is a powerlifter and he literally weighs 150lbs more than me...and I am 6 feet tall and still loosing baby weight. Big athletes do a lot for making a girl feel small!
DH always knows what I weigh, and always has. He can tell when I am gaining or losing before me. I don't focus on the number so I don't really care if he knows.

Yes, I give him a daily update on how much I weigh! I've always been mildly obsessed with my weight and usually share the details with him, whether he wants to hear them or not! This has gone on since long before pregnancy, all throughout pregnancy, and now post-pregnancy! I usually like my weight so part of the reason for me sharing is because I'm proud of it.... silly, I know!
