Weight gain... where are you ladies at with regards weight?

[icegurl470]

icegurl, thats what happened to me last time. At15 weeks I had gained 2lb, 5lb by 25 weeks, 9lb by 28 weeks and I was weighed at 34 weeks the day before I delivered and I had gained 2st 11lb! I was very slim then so even thou I gained a lot at the end I was well within the healthy weight gain range. I am over weight this time and my predicted weight gain is 15-25lb. 18 weeks and 0 gain so far but have a big bump already lol!

Yes same with me healthy weight first time around and I gained 35lbs so just within the high end of the recommended range. This time around I'm slightly overweight due to not losing the baby weight from the first and hoping to stay within the recommended 15-25lb range. I'm also sporting a huge bump, showing a lot more this time around. I lost 15lbs just having my first so i hoped to lose most of what I gained this time around, but at this rate who knows!

Im down 8lbs still no matter what I eat I keep losing I lost 30lbs with my lg but assumed it was due to the gd but i passed this time and dont have gd so not sure why im losing weightI am quite big to start with

Have you had your thyroid checked? A pregnancy related overactive thyroid could cause you to lose weight without trying. It's considered an endocrine disorder so especially if you have a history of gd in a past pregnancy I would get it checked out.

So far I think I win the weight gaining contest I started out the pregnancy at 9 stone 3 (so fairly slim as I am 5ft6) and as of today weigh 11 stone 3! Gained 2 whole stone at 26 weeks

I've been eating non-stop as I feel ravenous all the time , and if I don't eat I feel really sick. We'll see what the midwife says when I see her in a couple of weeks. The only saving grace is my belly is now so big I am now eating little portions and feeling really full quickly.

Saying all this, I put on nearly 3 stone with DD and was back to my pre-pregnancy weight within a few months. Fingers crossed the weight falls off as easily this time xx

I haven't been weighed since 9 weeks, but at that time I had lost 3 lbs. I'm hoping it keeps going in that direction as I've got plenty that needs to go!

 

[EleanoirRigby]

21 weeks and only gained 5 lbs. The doctor's scale was kinder than my own, that was a first! I feel as though I would have gained a LOT more if it weren't for the spontaneous morning sickness.

I am 19+5 but have only gained about three lbs. I'm not exactly a twig though.

My arms and bum look huge but the worst are my legs they got so chunky looking :L
