2nd Trimester

15 weeks, 2nd baby, no weight gain?

Is it just me?  I'd gained like 10-12 lbs at this point with my first pregnancy (and the kids will be less than 2 years apart). I don't have an increased appetite, at all, as I did last time...

Should I be concerned?  The baby's checking out healthy in the sono, doppler, and etc.  Not that I want to be a fatass either of course... :)  

Re: 15 weeks, 2nd baby, no weight gain?

  • Same here.  I gained 5 lbs in the first 8 weeks with the last one, and haven't gained a pound yet with this one.  But, I was also holding onto a bit of baby weight still when I became pregnant this time.

    If your doctor isn't worried, you shouldn't be worried.

  • I'm almost 24 weeks, and I'm still at -2 from when I got pg with this one.  I'm also not starving all the time like I was with my first.  I actually have a very hard time eating (hence the -2),  Baby is growing fine and my MW's are not concerned so i'm not either.  I just listen to my body better, eat when i'm hungry, and stop when i'm not, even if it's only 2 bites.  If you're OB isn't concerned don't worry about it.

  • Same here. I am just now up about 2 lbs.  I am sure it was at least 10+ with my first.

  • I'm 20 weeks with my 3rd and this is the first pregnancy where I havent gained anything by this point. I'm average sized to begin with and had gained some 'normal' amount at this point with my other 2. This time i'm just not very hungry. I eat when I'm hungry, I'm eating healthy foods, and I eat until I'm satisfied. At my last appt my MW wasn't too concerned; she just told me to make sure I'm not eating any less than I am.  My belly is definitely growing, so I'm sure baby is too, and baby does so much growing in the next 20 weeks I'm confident things will even out.

  • For my second, I only gained 8 pounds total.  I gained all of that during the last 2-3 weeks of that pregnancy.

  • Same boat here-I am down 4 lbs at this point. When I was preg with DD I know I had already gained at least 5 lbs by the end of 1st Tri. I am much sicker this time around and for some reason I have been really sick at night the past few weeks. Surely the weight gain will catch up eventually
