avg weight gain per month

akaMrsL

I have been on bed rest for a month and gained 6-7 pounds during that time.  Prior to that I was pretty active.  What is/was an average gain per month for you?  TIA

I only gained 19 lbs in the first two trimesters. I felt horrible during the first and tried to make up for it in the second.  In the past 7 weeks, I have gained 14 lbs, so about 7 lbs a month.

But just like everything else- everyone is different. Some people are on bedrest, some continue to exercise.  Some people have huge appetites, others have a hard time eating.  Try not to worry too much about weight gain, just focus on eating good foods for the babies and taking it easy while on bedrest.

I have gained 33 so far and I gained 20 pounds by 20 weeks.  I give up on worrying about my weight gain because it was stressing me out!
