24 weeks no weight gain..help!

[babyv_s2012]

Don't worry! I'm 21+4 and not put any weight on. My baby girl is perfectly healthy and growing well she's taking what she needs from me.

i think that really is the case! i noticed that certain "fat reserves" I had pre-pregnancy (a little on my back thighs) are gone! and I started out very thin. it is like my baby said..."um..excuse me...if you aren't using those love handles...i'll take em!"

Haha! Yeah I've noticed that too. I'm grateful she's used my fat! I had enough to go around teehee.

I think you are all lucky it must be healthier to have not gained any than to have gained the amount I have

Hi Arisa,

I think everyone's body is so very different...and even though many ladies haven't gained yet...they may be in for a windfall in third trimester (which is what I am thinking is in store for me).

I am 30 weeks and still about 5 pounds below my pre-pregnancy weight after losing 20+ pounds in 1st tri. I think most of my weight gain is the baby and my uterus growing because I am really thin, wearing my pre-preg clothes, and my wedding and engagement rings are so big they fall off so I can't wear them. So I am trying to carbo load! My baby is measuring right on so though I'm struggling to gain I'm glad she is getting what she needs.

I am 26 weeks and have only gained half of a pound.I too was sick in my first trimester and lost weight drastically.I had to see a specialist because my baby was so small.I couldn't even drink water.It was awful and this will be my only child lol Like it was mentioned above,as long as the baby is measuring ok,then I wouldn't worry.Everyone says third trimester is when you put on the most weight.

I have lost 16 pounds and gained 0. Measurements are good and the doc said they will take what they need, so I'm not concerned.
