I did it - 20 pounds in 20 weeks

I will be 20 weeks Thurs and I have gained 20 pounds.  That was hard work and I can't wait until the day I can stop eating.  I've grown to hate food of all sorts and resent the fact that I have to eat but I do feel a sense of accomplishment.  Now how many pounds do I have to go?

    It depends on how small you were before hand. I was 5'7" and 120-125. By 20 weeks I had gained maybe 12lbs, but by 36 weeks I gained 56lbs! The last month or two was when my weight just exploded.

    Congrats!?

    I have gained 17 pounds in 20 weeks and it scarily wasn't very hard to do.  At all.  I just allowed myself to have things I normally wouldn't (like cheese on my sandwiches, an occasional milk shake, an extra snack, etc.).  I should probably tone it down a bit in the coming weeks.  =/


    After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!

    Well done!!  I'm pretty close - I've gained 18 lbs and am just starting my 19th week.  I'm with Kimarino in that it (yikes!) wasn't very difficult.

    Way to go!! Keep up the good work! Just remember it's only a temp. time in your life to indulge--hopefully with the holidays coming up eating lots won't be so hard! Big Smile

    Congratulations!!!  Maybe 20 more to go, but hopefully it will come on easy now that the babies are bigger? 

    I hope to be where you are in 8 weeks.  :)

    Congrats!! It was a difficult achievement for me too. My peri follows Dr. Luke's weight gain goals. She wants me to gain a total of 55 lbs (I think it is 45lbs + 5 for previous m/c + 5 for IF treatments). The most crucial weight gain times are 20 weeks and 28 weeks.
