How much weight did you put on by 15 weeks?

[Pebbles11]

Hi ladies, i'm getting a bit peeved/worried by people saying how big my bump looks at 15 weeks. I have put on about 5 or 6lbs which seems like a lot to me. I was quite slim to start with (8 stone 7 ish or 119lbs, and 5 foot 3).

I didn't do much exercise in my first tri as I had an mc just before this pregnancy and I know it's silly but I didn't want to do anything to risk this baby. I'm exercising now though!

What was your weight gain at 15 weeks?

Hi !
I am 16 weeks and weighed myself and I have put on 4-5lbs
I didnt exercise in first trimester for same reasons as you but now im back to yoga and some walking.
My bump only 'popped' on saturday morning but since then a lot of people have commented on how big my bump is for 16 weeks !! lol

I have checked various websites though and my weight gain is very average for pregnancy and from now on they said i should expect a gain of 1lb a week some weeks.....

At 16 weeks I had put on about 5lb too which is about the same weightgain I had my my ds, in my last pregnancy I gained a total of 14lb so dont worry too much some women gain 30+lb

I did not put any on until 20 weeks. I have not done any exercise at all since getting pregnant in fact to be honest I am taking it very easy due to my history. I have put on 7lbs in the last 5 weeks though !!

TBH I find I dont eat as much as I did before I was pregnant I get hungry often and always eat when I am hungry but I find I dont want to eat as much as I would previously.

Dont worry remember everyone is different and all weight gains are different.

About 4lbs.

I've put on 3lbs, but when I got pregnant I was up 3 from where I like to be normally so in my mind I feel like I've gained 6 total. So long as I can keep fitting into my regular jeans (except for zipping and buttoning them) I feel like I'm doing ok and the weight is baby weight, not on me.

I am 5'4" started at 120, now 123. Third baby, 39 years old.

Not 15 weeks just yet, but I've put on 4lb... so it will probably be about 5lb here pretty soon

I had gained 10 lbs by 12 weeks, which is when I popped. I haven't gained anything since. Every pregnancy is different! My midwife told me that it would have been impossible for me to have not gained any weight in the first trimester because I have been overweight and lost the weight- my body remembers the weight and wants to put it back on.

4 lbs. I was hoping to have gained 7 by now. Although, I did lose 2 lbs in that first 2 weeks, so technically I had to gain 6lbs to get to this point.

At 16 weeks i had lost about 8 pounds but ive put about 5 back on in the last few weeks as my sickness is loads better and i can eat! Ive read about 4/5 pounds is normal at 15 weeks.

 

[keepthefaithx]

I lost 5lbs..from being so damn sick!

 

[edigirl82]

I don't know but I feel like i've put on a ton! More from lack of exercise than anything else!

 

[zombiedaisy]

At my appointment at 15 weeks, I had put on 5 pounds. Feels like sooo much! Im sure by my next appointment at about 19 weeks I'll have put on a few more.

By 15 weeks I had put on about 9 pounds, but I was underweight when I got pregnant (105 pounds, 5'7). So I think if you're quite thin to begin with, you'll probably put on weight a little quicker, which is good. I'm up to about 11 pounds gained now.

Nothing yet, but I remember my last two pregnancies I shot straight up after 20 weeks or so.

You may be the first person I've run into skinnier than me. I was 115 and 5'7"!

around 9-10 lbs at 15 weeks

 

[cbass929]

At my last appointment I was 15 weeks exactly and put on 2.5 pounds, seems like a lot more to but I guess number wise it hasn't been.

 

[jaggers]

I was 117lbs to start, now 124lbs so about 7 lbs. I'm 5 foot tall.
