2nd Trimester

Weight gain

I am 21 weeks and have gained 15 pounds and most of that being in the last 2 weeks :( I am trying to not gain as much as last times. How far a long are you and how much have you gained?

Re: Weight gain

  • I'm 21 weeks and have only gained 1.8lb and that was in the last week. In my past three pregnancies I gained between 45-56lb. I'm presuming I'll start piling it on now!
  • There are about a million threads about weight gain, you might find some information there.

    I'm 22 weeks and I've gained 4-6 lbs, depending on the day. My midwives aren't thrilled and would prefer me to gain more but they're okay with it as is.

  • I've gained 15 so far at 16 weeks. I'm working out and trying to eat healthy so it's frustrating. I hope it stops piling on.

    My weight fluctuates. I'm not supposed to gain weight anyway. But that's a different story.


    ETA: I lost 13 lbs in the beginning and then gained 2 back then dropped those again. I've gotten my appetite back. So let's see what the doc says on Friday. I may have to go back to the gym and do light workouts and swims. 
  • I'm around 18-19 weeks, and I haven't gained hardly any weight! But everything is fine, and baby is healthy so far. My issue is my high metabolism, that doesn't want to slow down! :-S
  • I've finally managed to gain a bit i think. I don't track my weight. That's why i have doctors. I have enough to worry about. The mirror says i look healthy enough for a pregnant person and nobody is yelling at me so I'm happy. 
  • every person and every pregnancy is different. with my daughter i lost about 8lbs in the 1st trimester, then gained that back easily in the 2nd, then by the end gained about 24lbs overall. this time i am 22 weeks currently, i lost 14lbs in the 1st trimester, and i have only gained about 5lbs back in the past few weeks. this time around my body seems to be going up a lb, then down a lb. at the moment i have kinda plateaued at the same weight for the last few weeks. i do have to keep in mind i AM about 30lbs overweight and every appointment the baby is just fine and healthy, so i am trying not to worry too much. my main problem i believe is just not being hungry that much. no morning sickness, just not hungry. and my cravings have been fruit lots and lots of fruit.
