I started at 5'8 126 I was 142 at my appointment today. So I am up 16 pounds at 28 weeks. I eat really well during the day but consistently wake up around 2:30 am to eat and my choices are not great at that time.
I've gained about 35 lbs so I don't even want to think about what I will end up weighing by the end of this pregnancy.
This! When my doctor came into the room I said, "lets talk about my weight" and he told me to relax and that I was fine. He said there is a guideline of what you should gain and that I had surpassed it, however, both baby and I are healthy...well that is until I got my GD results this morning. Either way, he told me he knew a lady that gained 90 lbs in her pregnancy and both mom and baby were perfectly healthy.
I gained 76 with DS. We were both fine, his apgar was 10 and all that. However, I was never able to loose it all. I lost about 50 at one point, but had some stressful life issues and ate too much and gained 20 back. I started this preg about 25-30 overweight, so I am trying SO hard to eat ok. But alas, I still am gaining steadily.
I'm 5'9" and started at 145lbs and at my 27wk appt I weighed 170...but she said I looked great even though I gained 10lbs this past month. My dr said it could be a growth spurt.
