Do you mind me asking how much weight you gained by 24 weeks?

daisy365 · November 2008

I've gained 20lbs and I feel like I am gaining too much. I'm 5'1" and pretty active I worked out a lot before my pregnancy and have continued periodically. My starting weight was 127lbs. My dr. isn't concerned, and everyone keeps saying that I still looks so small. I was just curious what most people gain by this point in pregnancy.

I'm only 21w, but I've already gained about 20 lbs. ?I started out about the same as you and my doctor is also not worried. ?If your doctor isn't worried, then there's no need for you to be either. ?Your body is gaining what it needs to support the baby.

I am 5'9". My start weight was well within the range of healthy for my size. I have gained about 25 pounds at 24 weeks. I gained 45 with my DD, mostly in the 2nd tri and lost 60 pounds by 6 months.

I am 5'5" and my pre-pregnancy weight was 133 lbs. My weight last week at 21 weeks was 142.5. I have gained a total of 9.5 lbs so far, of course tomorrow is the day I weigh myself so we will see how much more I've gained. I've basically gained 1/2 lb a week.

I am not as far along as you, but at 22 weeks I have gained 10 pounds. My weight gain has been much faster in the last few weeks. With the holidays coming up I am pretty scared! I have to lay off of the sweets :-)

I'm 23 weeks and have gained about 15lbs so far. I don't see it anywhere except for my stomach.

I was still at something like 15lbs and went up slow until 26 weeks. ?Now its like a snowball and wont stop, Im at 27lbs at 31-ish weeks. ?We will see what it is on Tuesday, probably 30

I'm just about 24 weeks, but haven't gained anything yet (technically still about 14 down). I had hyperemesis though, so I had a lot of weight lost in the beginning. I was a little chubby to start, though, so I think my weight is just readjusting. My stomach is very small for 24 weeks though, but I am also 5'10".

I am 24 weeks- and have gained 20 lbs so far. Everyone keeps telling me it;s all in my belly (which it is as faras I can see) and my Dr. thinks I am right on track for my height and body build (5'5" and 138 pre-pregnancy), so I am not worryign about it. I really only worry or ask about my weight when at the Dr. and that said I just ask if it's in a good range--

I'm not 24 weeks yet, but I have gained probably a little less than 10 pounds. ?I was overweight to begin with, so am trying to watch it a little, but not that much. ?My doctor doesn't seem worried about it at all.

I am 22 weeks, and I have gained 11.4 lbs so far. I gained 5.5 lbs of it in the last month. It seems the weight gain is starting to pick up now. I dont notice it anywhere but my belly. This is also my 2nd baby though.

momquixote · November 2008

At my first appointment I was 128 lbs. and at my last (at 20 weeks) I was 143 lbs. I weighed myself last night and I'm up to 146. I'd say I'm consistently gaining 1 lb. per week now.

I'm 22 wks and I've gained somewhere around 17ish lbs. I was 5'9" and 125 lbs to start, so pretty thin. I gained between 35-40 with Kate and lost it all by 12 wks post pardum, so I am not worried about it at all.

PatsGirl81 · November 2008

I gained about 10 lbs by then.

Amarie13 · November 2008

I've gained about 5lbs. so far, but I was a little above average weight to begin with.

Em7.31.04 · November 2008

I am 5'5" and am approx. a size 10. With my 1st pregnancy 3 years ago, I had gained about 7 lbs by 24 weeks. This time I am the same starting size and at 16w I've gained 2 lbs. I only gained 19lbs total last time and I'm hoping to stay in that range this time too.

But....Everyone is different and really, comparing doesn't do much good.

I've gained about 20 pounds...I'm almost 6 feet tall though.
