Finally hit 20lbs!

I was so excited last night when I stepped on the scale and realized I had fianlly reached a 20 lb gain.  Crazy to think I am happy about gaining weight, but I was worried when I didn't hit the 20 lbs by 20 weeks, so I am a few weeks late (23 weeks), but I made it.

  • Yay! That is great!!

    I remember having a slow point or two where I wasn't meeting my targets but then you'll have weeks where you are able to catch up without even trying.

    Way to go!Yes

  • I know what you mean.  I'm 17 weeks and I've only gained 13pounds and last week I only gained 1 pound.  Then you start thinking "are they not growing" "am I not getting enough calories or protein".  I actually got depressed when I saw I only gained a pound in one week.  Crazy!
  • Yay!! I was nervous too when it seemed I was struggling to put on any weight. There are weeks when the lbs seem to slip on w/o problem. Sounds like you are on the right track!
  • I just had my appt yesterday and gained 4 lbs in two weeks, my OB said that I should be gaining pretty fast from now on. I'm right on track so I'm not worried about it at all. I was worried at first too about my slow weight gain.
