How much have you gained so far?

I saw my OB yesterday and so far gained 5.5lbs. That hardly seems like enough.

aerobaby · February 2010

still down 10lbs but will find out Monday when I go for my 20wk

mrsjenni · February 2010

7lbs at 23w

rohansmom · February 2010

last I knew 4lbs at 24 week appt.

Somewhere around ten pounds. I was worried early too, because I didn't think I had gained enough, but it will come, I promise. And your doctor will not be afraid to say something if they feel you are not gaining enough, but feel free to ask at your next appointment. Hearing it from the horse's mouth is always more comforting!

+6 lbs at 20w appt.

You are doing fine! Thats normal. I was only up 3 at that point and I was still in the normal range.

Holy Heck!! I'm up 14 at 19.5 weeks!! And it could be a few more but my scale is unreliable

What the heck...

I had gained less than 1 lb at 13 weeks (last week). I have a feeling I've made up for it this week though!

ta78 · February 2010

I was up 8 at my 20 week appt. Your dr will tell you if you aren't gaining enough.. it's early still. I was up 4 at my 16 week and my dr said that was good.

MrsEmm · February 2010

I was up 8 lbs at 16 weeks, havent been on a scale since

jess60 · February 2010

I've gained 2 lbs as of my 20 week appt.

Everyone is different so "enough" to one person might be too much or too little to someone else.

Here are some customizable charts you can use as a general guideline:

Even if you aren't within "normal" on the charts, as long as your doctor isn't concerned, you shouldn't be either.

Hth!

LuvBug53 · February 2010

Zip!! and right on track to only gain 15 lbs. total. (i have diabetes and approx. 25-30 lbs. overweight before pg)

delg23 · February 2010

7! but I haven't weighed myself in a week. I'm still not in the overweight category for bmi so it seems ok to me. Not that I'll worry when I am in that category because I'm pregnant duh Stick out tongue

I actually lost 18lbs due to morning sickness. Finally gained 2lbs at my dr appt last friday. I'm having twins and the dr said that the babies are getting everything they need and are doing just fine. It really is different for everyone.. I wouldn't be worried at all but talk to your dr for your peace of mind. That always makes me feel better : )

Dreamsicle23 · February 2010

I think about 5-6 lbs. but I hadn't weighed myself for months before getting PG so I'm not positive what I started at.

Brougham7-15-06 · February 2010

between 12-13 weeks I was down about 2 lbs...I go back Monday and think it will be a totally different story.

jorden&kristin · February 2010

Up until 23 weeks I'd only gained 7lbs. Then between 23 and 24 I gained 4lbs in that one week! Now I'm up to 11. My midwife has been fine w/my gain so I'm not worried.

I definately recognize you from another board. You never post there anymore though.

meghan_marie · February 2010

Okay good deal! According to the calculator link, I'm in the normal ranges. Makes me feel better. :] I'm going to talk to my doctor when I go back in a month though.

Mouseygail · February 2010

i'm still down 10 pounds...you sound pretty normal!! there is a wide range and as long as your doc isn't concerned, you are fine!!

MrsHunter2Be · February 2010

I'm still down about 6lbs as of my 19 week appointment. I've gained back about 3 of what I lost, but over the last 5 weeks haven't gained or lost anything. My doctor wasn't concerned.
