Weekly weigh in?

JujuB22

Would anyone be interested in sharing their weight gain? I'm just curious plus I need to be held accountable....I'm still in the normal weight gain range, but my God the cookies and ice cream have been calling me nonstop. Found pumpkin flavored ice cream and have been living off of it. Sweet tooth is rudiculous! Strong family history of diabetes so I really need to get my act together.

I'm 5'4, pre-preg weight 143ish, now at 150 at 14wks.

Thought I would share to remind everyone that everyone's weight gain is different and every pregnancy is different! I'm 5'2" and started at 115; I'm having a boy and have gained 10 lbs so far at 17 weeks. Verses my first pregnancy, I had gained less than 5 lbs at this point with a baby girl.

5'3" pre-130. week 14-137.

Dito @lyracelesti - trying to do my best without bringing back body image issues.

And a weekly weigh is a good idea just as long as it doesn't become a competition about who has gained the least. I do find it interesting to share and voice all of our fears - gaining all this weight during pregnancy is stressful to most women (all of whom I've spoken to).

Edit-added.

I am certainly interested in this thread to keep my weight gain in check. I know everyone gains differently, but I gained unnecessary weight last time and would like to avoid that this time around.
I have an appointment tomorrow so I will chime in with me weight then!

I don't think thats bad at all. In fact, I know my OB would love for me to ditch my scale. I just can't.

I don't own a scale. I weigh once every 3-4 weeks at the gym or Dr's office. This has kept me sane all my life. Haha

Bmcmullin01

I'm 5'7" and pre pregnancy I was 130. I will be 18 weeks tomorrow and I'm 137.2 (just weighed myself lol)

katekat8721

-8lbs at 14 wk 3 days w/twins (was -12 lbs so happy to have gained some back!)

llatendresse

5'7" and 153 pre-pregnancy. I had a ton of muscle because I worked out quite a bit. Now I weigh 161 at 17 weeks, but I have lost a significant amount of muscle mass which makes the weight gain feel like more. I just couldn't find the energy during the first tri! Doc is happy with my weight but I still struggle!

FeliciaTwo

I also don't own a scale so will only be able to update after a doctors appointment.
Height: 5' 7"
Pre-weight: 126
Weight at 16 weeks: 133.4

I do have a flexible measuring tape and have been following my waist expansion. I'm not sure what it was pre-pregnancy (probably between 27 and 29). At 16.5 weeks I'm at about 34.5!

I am 5'3".  Pre-pregnancy I was 154.  I was overweight, having never lost the weight from being pregnant with my daughter.  Now I am  15w 2d and hover between 149 and 150.  I was overeating before getting pregnant, and now I eat about a million times a day, but each meal or snack is considerably smaller than it was before pregnancy - I just can't fit more in without feeling sick.  I'm hoping to keep the weight gain reasonable, because I know I didn't lose after having my daughter.  But I'm not restricting any foods, just realizing that I actually can't fit as much in as I did before.  I agree with PPs that I'd love to do this kind of check in as long as we're sure that's it's not making body issues any worse for anyone who is already obsessing.   I'd love to continue it after baby comes (maybe taking a couple of months off to get through the beginning) because that's where I went wrong with my daughter.

ElTrain5

5'6 here. 168 pre preg, 172 at 16 weeks. Trying to keep gain at a minimum so I can get back to a healthier weight than my starting weight after the baby comes.

I'm 5'4". I was 113 prior to going off bc in June, then was 118 when I got my bfp. At 16 weeks, I'm 113 again. I think a lot of that had to do with adjusting hormone levels and also I had very little appetite for several weeks and is just starting to get back to normal.

Runningmomfam

I started out at 106 pre pregnancy lost 7 pounds in the first trimester and now at 17 weeks I'm 103. I gained a lot more by this time with my first pregnancy but I'm trying not to over think it. My dr. says everything looks fine.

MrsRahl

I'm 5'4, just lost 45 lbs before getting pregnant (took about a year and a half to do so) was down to 138 and now am up exactly 20 lbs at about 17 weeks. I was so super skinny until I hit college. Never had good eating habits and struggle with food in my adult years. I'm struggling with my weight now as I know I've gained unnecessary weight but can't eat "diet food and drinks" like I did to help lose the weight. Hoping that this teaches me a little about weight management without artificial sweetness etc as that's what I relied on before. Ditched all that junk when I got pregnant.

kd&cd

Only weigh in at OB appointments...I don't own a scale because I know I will weigh myself everyday. OB only wants me to gain total of 15lbs, luckily I have JUST started to be able to eat a full meal so it hasn't been an issue. Height: 5'6, Weight: pre-preg 175, 12 week appointment 175, next appointment will be 16w4d and will update after

megzep

I've lost 14.5 at 16w6d. I keep losing without trying. I can definitely afford to lose the weight but I'm just concerned about nutrients for baby. I def don't eat as much or as often. I sometimes have to force myself to eat when I realize it's been awhile since eating. I gained 35 with DS 10 yrs ago and I've never been at my starting weight since then.

Lynnja616

+4 lbs at 18 weeks. I'm 5'10 and was 140 pre-pregnancy so on the lean side.

kittenslove

15 weeks, down 5 lbs. I have fluctuated down 10 lbs to down 2 lbs,  but haven't been able eat a lot, so not really gaining. Doctor says everything's okay, and not to worry until 20 weeks about weight gain.
