Why hasnt my weight changed?

[Wagamamma]

I had my almost 38week appointment today and my weight hasnt changed since 29 weeks it has stayed the same at 71kgs! How can this be possible when obvoiusly my belly/baby has grown????

I wouldn't worry about it too much. If the doctor/midwife says that you and baby are healthy, I wouldn't worry about it. My daughter in law actually only gained 2 lbs her entire pregnancy and our granddaughter weighed 7 lbs 11 oz! She is the only person I know who came out weighing less than she did prepregnancy! LOL! But seriously, if your dr of mw is saying you and baby are ok, I wouldn't worry too much. Good luck!

I lost weight with my daughter, staying same this time. Baby will get what it needs from what you eat. Metabolisms can speed up during pregnancy and there isn't a huge increase in calories whilst pregnant. So really it works out that you've lost weight but the baby is gaining, so you'll stay around the same.

It's what's happening to me

I have not gained any weight since I was 28 weeks. I am now 33 weeks. The doctor is not worried. My baby is growing and thats all that matters. Also, I have put on 22 pounds in total so i believe it is all just evening out.

Im 39 weeks and I weight half a stone less now than I did before I was pregnant lol, Neither the midwife or consultant is worried because baby has always measured fine for my dates. xx

I've been at the same weight for the past 4 weeks. While my belly is getting bigger, I have noticed that I'm eating less since I am becoming fuller quicker- I'm thinking maybe that has something to do with it.

Im 33 weeks and have only put on 2lb during the whole time Despite the fact the last few weeks I cant stop eating. I asked the midwife about this as I was super worried, she wasnt, said everything is measuring fine and the baby will be getting what it needs!

I have been thinking about this to. LO has been getting bigger these past few weeks, and yet i have only put on 5lbs throughout the whole pregnancy so far. Im not complaining as i still fit into most of my 12-14 pre-pregnancy clothes at the mo! And baby is happy and healthy. I just had this idea in my head that when i got preganant i would balloon in weight all over and nothing would fit! Doesnt mean to say that closer towards the end i wont have a sudden major growth spurt though.
