Had my monthly OB appt this am and I've gained 10 lbs so far!! OB felt that was more on the higher side.
I was normal weight to start, 5'10" 148 and now I'm 158!!!
She said watch carbs & fruit. I had a lot of morning sickness the 1st tri so I would just eat anything that made me feel better.
Anyone else gain around 10 lbs at this point?
Re: 16 wks & gained 10 lbs!! Anyone else???
I have my 16 weeks appt. in 20 minutes and I think I'm up about that much - my scale at home isnt very reliable, so we'll see based on their scale.
I'm 5'4'', started at 120 and I think I'm about 129/130. I'm active, walk at least 5K every day, and I know I'm eating a bit too much but I'll wait and see what my OB has to say. I don't think 10 lbs is that bad, honestly.
Around 16 weeks I had gained 9 pounds my doctor just told me to watch what I'm eating.
But only certain foods sound good to me still at this point so I'm going to eat what sounds good. And with my daughter at this point I hadn't gained any weight but at the end I gained 50 pounds. And I was able to lose that weight.
I have gained 11 in 18 weeks. My doctor did not say anything about my weight.
I started at 129, and I am now at 140.
I was up 12-15 at my 14 week appointment (can't remember, exactly). My OB told me to watch the pacing of my gain. It was okay that I gained 6lbs in 4 weeks, but to cut back on dairy (cheeses, ice cream, etc). Surprisingly, the hunger dissipated in intensity after that appointment. I wasn't really eating cheese, ice cream or other dairy (because of an allergy) and I've only gained 2 lbs since my last appt. We have the big ultrasound appt today and I am a little worried about my weight/comments about the gain.
I've been told by many women, however, that your body is going to react to being pregnant the way it's going to react. That might mean I gain more weight than I would like, even while eating normal/healthy. But in the end, it works itself out okay and my baby will be healthy. Plus, you'll bounce back after birth (so I hear). I'm trying my darnedest to just enjoy being pregnant.
I am at 8 (and I'm sure that # will show as 10+ on the drs office scale since they won't let me weigh in naked ) and am 16 weeks today. I am a fatty patty so my mw said not to gain more than 10 by 20 weeks, so I know I am high. I haven't been exercising at all and haven't been making great food choices, clearly.
