Weight?

Msanchez1125

Beings I just ate a whole pack of those little white doughnuts =(   and I feel like a big fatty- esp. because I had a nice, healthly apple in the fridge @ work..... UGH.... NO self control.

How much weight has everyone gained thus far? I have an appt. on Monday.... and I wanted to have something to compare too. IF you dont mind sharing Thanks!

BetsyDavis

I've gained 0 so far. Sorry not much to compare too. Good luck at your appointment on Monday. 

TanyaKM

It varies so much by person that it is hard to compare. I'm still around the 4 pound mark at 19 weeks tomorrow.

I've gained about 9 and I'm almost 21W.  Doc says I am right on track and I should be able to stay within the 25-30lbs he suggested from the beginning.  I also eat whatever I want I don't restrict myself at all.

Msanchez1125

Thanks!

So far, I think I am at around 5lbs gained.

At my appt last week, I had gained 5lb so far.  But I was also a bit chunky before getting my BFP.  My dr is happy with my weight gain so far.

Wow! Nothing at all?

I have gained 5 pounds so far according to my appointment on Tuesday. I was overweight to begin with though and I only should gain 15 pounds the entire pregnancy. My doctor seems to think I am right on track so I"m happy with that.

Yep. I didn't gain with my DD either till 34 weeks. Doctors says it will probably go the same this time around too.  I had some weight to spare anyway.

Still down 8 pounds from pre-pregnancy this far. That being said, my pre-pregnancy weight was the biggest i'd be in my life and was not a healthy weight.  So- don't compare yourself to me!

At my 20 week I had gained 6 pounds, although I feel like this stretch will be more. My dr wants no more than 25 pounds which I think is pretty reasonable.

 

angiek1

I've gained 10

lololoco

I'm still down 2 or 3 from PP weight, was down 6 at 10 weeks, so I've gained a little since then.

With my DD, I had gained 15 by this point and gained 35 total.

Themetastic

I am right around 10 but have been super swollen, so not sure just how accurate that number is re: pounds I have actually put on.

actres

At my 18 week I had gained 6 pounds. My doctor didn't seem concerned but she did mention she did not want to gain 5 pounds each month! lol. At my 14 week I had only gained one pound so that is what she is talking about. I have started doing water aerobics about 2-3 times a week and of course walking or doing the stationary bike on the other other days. I also don't usually restrict what I eat. I just try to make sure I am getting things from each food group! Even if that means having sweets

laurenharrison

Im up 5 lbs from my 16 weeks apt so total gain is 7 lbs. I too have no self control I must eat chick-fil-a atleast twice a week

fancefpp

i've gained about 9 lbs.

snoopy3319

Nice job ladies. I've gained 13 pounds as of the other day, but it's usually fluctuating right around 10 pounds or so. I'm almost 19 weeks. I was only supposed to gain 10, which I thought was a crock. Oh well.

Fisherman'sWife

Ugh... I think I lost about 7 during the first trimester and I think in the past 3 weeks I have gained it all back (totally in my stomach and boobs).  It should be an interesting appointment next week! 

LCCollins

Goodness! I am up nearly 15 at 22 weeks. Yikes. But I feel great, my doc is happy, and I am still exercising every day, sometimes I can't help but let my sweet tooth win!

animalcrckers

at my 20 wk appointment i'd gained 6 so far. but i think this next 4 weeks are going to be my "big gaining" weeks.....

laurenbncha#

10 pounds.

megd06

as of this wk--3 lbs (started at 135). I was pretty sick early on and lost about 4 lbs.

Kondasa

About 7.5 at my 20 week appointment. I used to be a runner and volleyball player and had to stop so I am very nervous about weight gain when I have used such intense workouts to control my weight pre-pregnancy.

rickey

Wow! Im 18wks 2 days and up 8lbs (ticker off) I was on the same track last preg. and gained 28lbs total and went exactly 40wks, Im not too concerned. Started at 122 lbs and 5'5 so I think Im fine!

jed15@case.edu

I had only gained 1 pound up until 19 weeks, and between 19 and 20, I think I put on 4 pounds! I did have ice cream like 3 times that week oops! I just feel so much more hungry! No more ice cream every other day!

orchidanna

Wow, I feel like a fatty!  I've gained 18 and I'm 20w4d.  My doctor is a little concerned because in the last month I gained 2 lbs a week, but I'm doing about 60 minutes of cardio a day plus dog walking, and I'm 6' tall, so I don't think you can really tell.  That's what I tell myself, anyway...

krispy6372

these posts are so depressing! Wow I thought I was doing so well being up about 11lbs at 20 and a half weeks 

 

 

Temp123197812503460

up about 20 lbs at 18 weeks.  But I was thin to start with and having twins.  The doctor was very happy with my weight gain at the appointment this week, there is some evidence that gaining more with twins helps prevent pre term labor.

Matt Dvorak

8 lbs - I had thought I had gained more, but that was my weight after a work trip with too much fattening food (as often happens!), so I dropped back a bit and have been steady here for a few days. I gained 4 of the lbs in the past month, and the other 4 more slowly prior to that. 

tourqeyes

I'm still down a few pounds. Not sure how much but the doctor told me I've lost weight.

I was a similar size pre pregnancy to you and up the same amount of weight :-) 

B&R+A=love

I gained back what I lost when I had morning sickness but besides that I haven't put on any additional weight. Which is a good thing because my Dr. said to only gain 10lbs the entire pregnancy.

EMunion777

 I've gained 5 lbs and i'll be 21 weeks tomorrow.

duchess0727

It's pretty normal to gain about 5-10 lbs per trimester totalling 20-30 lbs.  Almost everyone I know IRL has gained this way - except a handful of friends who gained 50-70 lbs.  Not really sure how that happens!  It's pretty normal to gain weight when your having a baby - your body is designed that way.  I have gained 9 lbs at 19 weeks which is a few less than my first 2 pregnancies.  I gained 25 lbs with both the first time and I'm guessing this one will be the same. 

eleopard

12 pounds so far, which doctor says is normal.  I think 5 went to my boobs.

I am with you, I am up 15 lbs, but started under weight so the doc is not concerned. I gained 75 lbs. with my DD so on a much better weight gain this time around. I am all basketball belly.

alioopsiedaisy

I've gained 6 pounds at 22 1/2 weeks.

I didnt gain anything up until week 21, then I swear in the last week and a half its piled on. Dr says its fine and was actually warning me that I would have a big sudden gain because I hadn't gained anything. I'm hoping to stay under 25 pounds (started at 135).

alliapistor

My weight seems to really fluctuate.  Like the other night, I weighed before going to bed and then weighed again the next morning and the morning weight was 4 lbs. lighter than the night weight.  On average, I would say that I have gained 10 to 12 lbs.

alubins

Ha!  I think I've gained maybe a total of 10lbs?  I'll find out for sure at today's appointment, and I have to agree with a pp, I think a good portion of the weight went to my boobs!

NativeFloridian

I'm up 5 pounds from my pre-pregnancy weight.  My doctor told me I am right on track and very healthy, and I'm pretty sure there's a little leeway in there, like a range they consider to be acceptable for specific points in pregnancy.  I honestly thought I'd have gained, like, 15 pounds because of the way I stuff my face some days, lol!
