Here's a calculator.

Aww don't feel bad hun. Perhaps you should try eating more foods that are protein rich...they'll help keep you fuller longer. I also found that if I eat fast food I'm always hungry soon after...so I try to cook most of my meals. I'm not saying that you eat a lot of fast food, but I can tell you that when I was preggers with DS, I ate out a lot, was always hungry and gained nearly 50 lbs. This time around I cook a lot (or OH cooks for me) and I find that I'm not hungry as often. Just some thoughts.

During both my pregnancies I put on a stone a trimester, I'm only a size 8 so it was hard work!

Here is what you should be aiming to gain by the 40th week of pregnancy
according to your pre-pregnancy weight.

2nd and 3rd trimester (average range/week)

Underweight Less than 18.5 13kg to 18kg (28lb to 40lb) 0.5kg to 0.6kg (1lb to 1.3lb)

Normal weight 18.5 to 24.9 11kg to 16kg (25lb to 35lb) 0.4kg to 0.5kg (0.8lb to 1lb)

Overweight 25 to 29.9 7kg to 11kg (15lb to 25lb) 0.2kg to 0.3kg (0.5lb to 0.7lb)

I was weighed at 26 weeks and i'd put on 6.5 kilos which my consultant said was the perfect weight. ONly three months to go! x

 

[PurpleKisses]

I'm only 23 weeks and I've gained about 20lbs...the charts say that I'm over but my mw hasn't said anything about my weight so I'm not worried.
