YES! I have weekly appts already because my blood pressure has started to get a little high. At my 32 week appt I gained 3 lbs and at my 33 week appt I gained 3 more!! Thats 6 lbs in 2 weeks...not cool!
last week at my 35w appt. i found i had somehow managed to gain 12lbs. in 2 weeks! (after having gradual, "right on track" weight gain the first 33wks.) i didnt change my daily activity or diet. and i also have zero swelling of my face/hands/feet. and i dont have GD. so both me and my OB were like: WTH? she put me on a somewhat "diet" to see what would happen.. do not drink your calories, no processed food, cut back on milk/juice intake. i did just that.. i cut out almost all sugar, ate just about everything fresh and healthy, drank a ton of water or sugar free sparkling bevs. went to my 36wk appt. this morning and found i had dropped 5lbs. since last week. i dont know if it was water weight or diet or both?
With my first, I had only gained about 5 lbs up to probably 28 weeks or so...I gained about 20-25 lbs total so you do the math, ha. Everyone's different (and even this pregnancy is different...gained a lot more at the beginning this time). My DD was 6 lbs 10 oz and almost a week overdue. I ate the exact same all pregnancy. It's just how it happened.
I have the opposite problem. I have lost three pounds over the last month, and that is with eating high calorie food. DD is getting bigger, so I guess I don't care THAT much, but I would rather gain the pound or two a week and skip the worry altogether.
