How much you weigh?

Mine doesn't - he didn't even know how much I weighed with each pregnancy. For my doctor's visits he would leave for the weight part. Very sweet of him.

Now he does know how much his sisters weigh, of course they're always running around with, "I weigh 103 pounds." Yes, I married into a family of skinny women. It is like the only thing they have to be proud of - I try not to take it personally but, ya, it sucks when they're talking about these "fat cows" and these women are about my size. I do have to laugh, a bit -- the older one, since she has started living a more healthy lifestyle, has gained a bit of weight herself. She no longer runs around announcing her weight. Of course now she focuses on her daughters' weight.

He knows about what I weigh and I know about what he weighs. Nothing we go running to tell one another but nothing we hide either.

Yes, DH knows my weight. He even knew my weight when I was at my heaviest when I was pregnant with Rebecca when I had gained 50+ lbs. I have never tried to keep my weight a secret, because I need him for moral support when I am trying to lose weight. (although he says I don't need to, that I am perfect at this size...but I don't feel that way, but it sweet of him to say so).

He does not know my actual weight, but knows that I'm over my "oh s*@&" number. I'm embarrassed because I weigh more than him right now.

I also married into a family of skinny, weight obsessed women who focus a lot on outward appearance. I have heard my BILs and SILs discuss other people's weight, commenting on how fat someone has gotten or laughing at a friend's "fat" girlfriend. I have no self confidence around them because I'm sure they are talking about me that way too, I have major anxiety about my weight and appearance before every trip to see my inlaws

Yes, he does. Of course, especially right now, I weigh myself pretty much everyday. I think he is getting worried that I will out weigh him before the baby comes. LOL But I don't think I will.

He knows my weight even when I am not pregnant and I know his.. We both look good so it's not that big of a deal with us.

I suspect if we polled couples that we would see a pattern of people who know their mates weight are probably more comfortable with their weight.

Yes....for awhile I wouldn't tell him, but he is really good at guessing...so one day I just told him and knowing that he knows has actually helped
