How much weight had you gained by 13 weeks?

[trudie100]

Hi ladies

Ive just come over from the first trimester forum as im now 13 weeks

I just wonderd how much everyone had gained by 13 weeks pregnant?

Im usually a size 8 and weight 8 stone exactly (112 pounds) and i used to work out 4 times a week before I got pregnant

Due to a miscarraige in march when i found out i was pregnant again in June this year i stopped going to the gym, and exercise wise havent really done that much.

Ive been suffering REALLY badly with bloating and constipation and as a result my weight can go up and down by 4-5 lbs each day! at the minute i dont really know what i weight exactly, but last weigh in was 8 stone 10 pounds (122 pounds)

Im REALLY worried that this is a huge weight gain seeing as you arent really meant to gain anything in the first trimester!

My midwife weighted me and my booking in appt and wasnt concerned at all, and even with what ive put on my BMI is normal but im scared im going to carry on gaining this kind of weight throughout?

The only good thing is my weight doesnt seem to be going up each week, its kind of stayed around the 8 stone 10 mark since about 6 weeks?

Is this normal? Help pls ladies! x

I'm a size 10 and was weighing in at 9 stone at the start. I've been bothered with bloat all the way thru but it has settled down last few weeks and now i'm just bump. I reckon i've put on 8-10 pounds so far. No weight gain other than my expanding boobs and bump.

I'm sure you'll b the same in a few weeks and then you'll b able to figure out how much u really have put on. I'm sure you'll find it isnt that much x

Please don't let the scale bother you. Most of it is water weight gain at that stage. I had gained five pounds by then, and 17 pounds now, at 24 weeks. I stayed the same for the last 6 though. I also had days where it went up and down. Dancing is really good for excercise and will help keep hips, and joints nice.

I weighed my self a couple of days ago and i've already put on 9lb :/ I was gutted haha, but my baby is healthy and I can always lose the weight again after baby is born so I'm not really THAT bothered about it

XxX

Yup I have also lost a stone!!!!

But then I was a bit overwright for my height and could do with the weightloss! lol

At 13 weeks I had put on 11 pounds.

 

[pixiepower]

I weigh the same as when I started, but I dropped 5lb in 1st tri so you could say I gained those 5lb back lol. I honestly wouldn't worry, your gain is not extreme compared to some, and it may slow later on, it will all balance out

me too! so I was quite happy to lose the weight all I ate was wedges and mayo through first tri as I was sick and no appetite.

I am still suffering with ms and loss of appetite so lost another pound today, but if my mum if anything to go by, she had ms all the way through her pregnancies! And was really skinny, just her and her bump lol

Has your appetite come back now?

Oh no that's horrible I dont think I could have coped any longer, I found sucking on lollipops kept the sick feeling away temporarily.

I still have loss of appetite too, Im 18 weeks now and I will only eat meals, I'm never hungry until late in the day but also can never decide what to eat 'cause nothing appeals! I used to love my food and love snacks too

Ha I told my mum it was a mean thing to pass down!

I have to force myself to eat otherwise I feel worse, and yup nothing appeals! It is such hard work

 

[trudie100]

wow how have you ladies lost a stone LOL!

but to be fair i havent been sick once the entire pregnancy so its not like ive struggled to keep anything down, ive just been eating more than normal but apart from that not even feelling pregnant! x

I lost 4 kg from the begining to about 14 weeks. I have now put on 3 kg again. Roughly about 1 kg a week. But not worried yet, as I am just 2 kg over my prepregnancy weight now. Everyone gains at their own pace. As long as you eating healthy and drinking your vitamins you will be fine.

Before i was pregnant i was 9st4lb. i got weighed at 10.6 weeks and i was 9st7lb with my healthy diet and non smoking, and again at 13 weeks and i was 9st5lb so not much difference really. my nurse said some peoples metabolism speeds up and some peoples slows down. as long as your being healthy and everything i dont see much problems with gaining or losing weight everyone is different x
