I know everyone hates weight posts but what is the most you have gained in one month?

9lbs between 12wk and 17wks.
10lb
It seems pretty common to have a big jump in weight around the 20 week appointment
Since we're all sharing, how much did you gain that makes you feel like you need to be comforted??
I normally don't reply to weight posts, but I just had a bad month and know how you feel - so I'll share.
Nothing through most of first tri.
3 pounds between weeks 10-14
4 pounds between weeks 14-18
8 pounds between weeks 18-22!!!
My doc did express concern over 8lbs in 4 weeks, so now I'm officially a cranky pregnant woman trying to balance "not dieting" with "weight watching."
UGH! dont even get me started on this, I thought I had only gained about 15 pounds, when I went in last week for my 20 week appt my midwife said I have gained 23 pounds since my first visit, she rolled her eyes and said that I have gained too much. WTH! I know I am not fat, yeah I have eaten way too many french fries. She then persisted to let me know that I have 20 weeks left and a pound a week from here on out. GRR! I guess I assumed this would be the one time I wouldn't have to hear about weight.
of course I am writing all of this now while eating an ice cream sandwich one for my employees just gave me.
i say dont worrry about the gain!
I have gained a total of 20 pounds so far! ?At each appointment I have gained between 3 and 6 lbs. ?I think I may beat my own record at my next appointment.
With my DS my doc commented on my weight gain one appt. ?I think I had gained 6lbs. She said something in front of my husband and I was so embarrassed, even though I know I shouldn't have been. I have a history of weight issues and have always been underweight or more recently a normal healthy weight. ?I am always scared they are going to say something again. ?
I just had my 22 week appt and gained 9 lbs. I almost fell over!! The dr said typically you will have one month where you gain alot. It sucks :-(
Between 5 weeks (when we found out I was pregnant) and 10 weeks I gained 1lb.
Between 10 weeks and 16 weeks, I gained 10 pounds!!
I DID cry! My doctor said it is kind of a lot, they like to keep it around 1lb a week, but she said I "needed it".
Like you, I have always been under weight, even now with my 10lb weight gain, I'm still under weight for my height, but it still came as a shocker!
I have gained too much and I am a petite so it shows. Trying to walk it off when I get the energy. It is scary to gain so much at barely 17 weeks.
Okay, so I haven't paid any attention to the lbs. gained per month, but I went in at my 24 week appt and found out I'd gained a total of 27 lbs. Yikes! I got the "we don't encourage pregnant women to diet, but...". Honestly, I don't see where I've gained that much weight, but whatever. So, now I'm watching what I eat and trying to maintain.
Sorry you're feeling down, but know you're not alone.
