How much weight has everyone gained thus far!?

chargerwest · October 2010

I had gained too much around week 20, but since then i have been walking alot and trying to maintain it. These days its a little more difficult because i've been craving dessert after every meal.. even breakfast!

Chick7806 · October 2010

So far? 24 pounds. 3 1/2 weeks left.. We'll see how much damage I can do.

lngcdr2009 · October 2010

13 lb so far, but we'll see what the coming weeks will bring.

Nicole0012 · October 2010

Had an appointment on Thursday - I've gained 10 lbs, but look (and feel) like I've gained WAY more.

AndysGrl08 · October 2010

At my last ob appointment I was up 14lbs. I'm really hoping to keep it under 20lbs overall, and if I do 1lb/week from now until I'm due it would be ideal for me.

PS
I was overweight pre-pg, so I was really hoping to keep the weight gain to a minimum.

tiffanyp · October 2010

About 25 pounds, and I still have 8 or 9 weeks left. Yikes.

LovesMM · October 2010

So far I'm still down 9 pounds from what I weighed the month before I got pregnant.

Edit: For the record, I was NOT overweight before pregnancy.

smiles325 · October 2010

Man! Y'all are so lucky! I have gained a whopping 32 pounds! I didn't want to go over 20. Yeah...I blew that. haha I'm hoping NOW to keep it under 40! Good news is I think it's mostly belly...yet I can tell in my hips that they are slightly bigger.

ETA: At my very first appointment with my MW, she told me that they'd like to see me gain more than the average pregnant woman. The average pregnant woman should gain 25-35 pounds. I told her there's no way. haha

paigeapoe · October 2010

As of last thursday, 21lbs.... 9 wks left...

It's so weird how different we all are. I have a really small bump. People can't believe I'm 7 months pregnant, and my OB says I'm measuring a bit small. Yet I've gained 25 lbs already.

bubbles231211 · October 2010

I'm at 31 lbs gained...but I go back today and will have my latest number then. However, I'm not looking forward to this time on the scale b/c I've had this insatiable hunger lately where I never feel full :-/ so i bet I've gained more....

This exactly.

neurda · October 2010

At week 33, 12 pounds. I started off a normal weight and with morning sickness I cannot gain weight.

bosha711 · October 2010

32 lbs as of 5 days ago.

28 max was my goal, but now I will settle for 40 max.

TtotheG · October 2010

25lbs. I honestly expect to be a few more lbs on Friday from sitting the last two weeks.

deziyou · October 2010

22 lbs. so far. I'm hoping to stay under 30 and I think I can do it!

irssy · October 2010

a whopping 45lbs!! OMG, everyone says that it's all in my belly since im not swollen or see any gain on my face, arms, legs...but i'm not stupid, my thighs are way bigger ww/stretch marks, my arms are also bigger (i see the fat bumps), and my face has a double chin now lol...my doc told me i was under weight to begin w/when i first found out i was pregnant. I hope all the weight gain is water because I have no idea what I would do w/an overweight baby coming out my whohaa or losing all this weight, yikes.

guppybaby · October 2010

I am right at 20 lbs.

TMNTgirl · October 2010

So far I've gained 32 pounds. And I've got 6 weeks left and they say you usually gain about a pound a week for the last month. So I have do doubts that I'll be close to 40 pounds when all is said and done, but I've accepted it and am not as freaked out as I used to be.

I was tiny pre-pregnancy at only 5'4" and 116 pounds, so my BMI was borderline between underweight and normal. And they say the average gain is 25-35 pounds, so even if I'm close to a 40 pound gain that's not so bad considering how skinny I was back in March.

Cymarkus · October 2010

I'm at 39 pounds Embarrassed

I started out about 20 pounds under-weight so my doc says I can afford to gain 50, I was hoping to not go above 40. I've been eating healthy, but large portions. Everyone says I'm all belly and look small for being 34 weeks, so I'm not going to worry about it. As long as my doc isn't worried, I'm not worried.

lulu8109 · October 2010

I think I've gained about 28 lbs at 31 weeks. I still have 9 weeks to go! I wanted to gain no more than the recommended max of 35 pounds, but not sure if that's going to happen. I've definitely been gaining at a faster rate than recommended. I just keep telling myself it's ok and it's for LO. Most of the weight is in my boobs and belly, though I know my thighs have gotten bigger. Siiigh.

lulu3061 · October 2010

I have gained 12lbs but I am still less than I was before BFP. I had gained 16lbs and was very happy with that but at my last appointment I had lost again. Baby is doing well though so I guess it's just what my body does. Who knows?!

abovewedding · October 2010

I've gained 50 so far. Cool

mandiroo · October 2010

30 pounds as of my last appt. Dr. wanted me to gain more than average anyway....good thing since I still have 8 weeks to go! Yikes!

Hey lulu, How much are you still down from your pre-preg weight??

rfkenney · October 2010

Okay, I'll be brave and say it without excuses--

I have gained 60 lbs.

missesru · October 2010

According to my doctor's paperwork - 26 lbs... but that's not really the case.

I gained 5-10 lbs for my first pregnancy which ended in m/c right before this pregnancy.... My dr. is good with my weight gain so I don't mind too much...

chargerwest · October 2010

Everyone is sooo different!!! I have gained 25 lbs... im hoping to gain no more than 10 more in these last 8 wks!

jenescort · October 2010

I've gained 12 pounds so far. At my last apptointment I didn't gain any weight from the previous appointment, even though OB wasn't concerned. I'm hoping next week I will have gained a little something. I was a normal weight before BFP.

LittleDucky · October 2010

I've gained 40 lbs already and I was on the higher side of normal (maybe even borderline overweight) before I got pg. I have no idea how I've gained so much. I don't feel like I've been eating that much but the weight just keeps coming! Part of it was that I gained too much just during the first trimester because I never actually threw up from morning sickness but I felt nauseated all the time and eating carbs and cheese was the only thing that made me feel better.

heyitsme · October 2010

54 pounds from the weight I was 1 week prior to my BFP... 46 pounds since my 1st appointment (I was 10w5d). Embarrassed

KJKNAJ · October 2010

28lbs, the exact same as my 1st pg so far.

Hey lulu, How much are you still down from your pre-preg weight??

I'm now only down 4lbs from pre-preg. weight. I had an appointment yesterday and a big fat booooo to losing the rest of weight I had worked to gain. I'm measuring on track still and he's growing like a weed (the kid is ridiculously long) so I don't know what to think about it anymore, I guess I'm not going to worry. Paige-y-poo still measuring alright?

minimonstersmum · October 2010

I've gained almost 11lbs and hoping to not gain too much more!

Eh, last Dr. appointment my fundal height didn't go up. At 34 weeks it measured 31. I have an appointment on Thursday and another ultrasound next week. Last one she was in the normal growth classification.

MrsNoPhun · October 2010

I lost 13 lbs in first tri with morning sickness (and that was with being on medicine) and I gained all of that back plus an additional 5 lbs. I stayed the same for a really long time and now I am starting to see the scale start to go up.

SmilingMrsF · October 2010

At 31 weeks I've gained 30 lbs.

Dana86 · October 2010

I have gained 10lbs so far.

bisabelm · October 2010

At my last appointment (3 weeks ago) I had gained 24 pounds. I have an appointment tomorrow so we'll see how much I've gained since then. I think I gained about 3 since then...I've been starving lately!! I think in the end I will fall somewhere between 35-40 which is what my doctor suggested for my height and body type.

jax63081 · October 2010

As of last week i had gained 27 pounds...i have been averaging about a pound a week for the last couple weeks.

DaisyCakes18 · October 2010

I was up 15 pounds at my appt. a week ago. I'm starting to get back into my 1st trimester feelings of being grossed out by healthy food and only wanting junk so I'm hoping I don't pile another 15 on in the next 8 weeks.
