How much weight did everyone gain by there 16th week?

shainatay4 · January 2013

I have noticed i have only gained like may be 3 pounds since i have been pregnant. I have gotten really huge but for some reason haven't gained much weight. I do take care of my self in what i eat and i still do things.. Am i normal or is the doctor going to tell me to gain more weight at the doctor tomorrow?

At 16 weeks I was still down 5-10lbs after losing 20 right away in the pregnancy.

I lost about 9-10 pounds, which was weird because I wasn't even really that sick. I am only just now reaching my prepregnancy weight.. My midwife mentioned the weight loss, but said she wasn't concerned as long as my belly was growing and that I WAS eating... which of course, I am. So no worries, I would say!

about 4 lbs but then I lost it again and probably gained it back by now

Probably 2 lbs? I was lucky not to have any m/s, and I swear weight in my butt and thighs moved to my boobs and my belly a little bit - so more like a "weight reallocation."

At 16 weeks, I was only up about 1 pound.

I hadn't stepped on the scale in a few weeks, but the first time I noticed any weight gain at all was 18 weeks.

I just had my 16 week check today and I have gained 1.1 lbs since November, which was when I saw my Dr for the first time. I asked her to double check that since I am all belly already! (I am small) She told me it was ok to gain a little more weight, so I had a chocolate shake after supper with my daughter. It was her first one (she is 2 1/2) and she loved it. I won't make a habit of it since that is all I wanted when I was pregnant with her.

I seriously also had this reallocation you mentioned. I've gained 2 to 3 lbs but my boobs are huge my stomach is still not big but it's significantly chunkier looking than usual and my legs are thinner. Even my husband noticed.

I'm with the whole "weight allocation" theory. I've only gained 4 lbs, at 17.5 weeks, but I have a bump and my arms and thighs are definitely smaller.

At 16w, I had gained 6 lbs.

shainatay4 · January 2013

Oh good. I have only gained may be 2 lbs. But i was worried because i haven't gained anything for a month or so. I have a huge tummy i am pretty sure it looks like i have twins! My chest has also grown a cup size. I am eating but i do have a lot of morning sickness still. My doctor actually makes me get Iv's because i can never get fully hydrated! But i am doing the best i can.

With DD, 16w was the first week I gained anything and I gained 1lb. With this pg, I'm almost 15w and I've gained between 2-4lbs (it fluctuates).

I have gained 2 pounds. I am little bit of a heavier girl in the first place but I am not a bigger girl, just solid as a rock as my DH calls me when I am throwing cattle around. My boobs and belly have grown and I am thankful my Butt hasnt outgrown my saddle. ( I ride/walk in a round pin only) Just to play it safe and make sure my horse doesnt get too big for his britches!

0 pounds

Jdawnl · January 2013

At 16 weeks, I had gained 6-7 lbs. 5'10, 158, pre-pregnancy. FTM.

SLSeibert1 · January 2013

I'm down 2 lbs. right now, but with DD I gained all of my weight in the 3rd trimester.

Luthy · January 2013

I weighed myself at 16w1d and had gained 2 lbs.

I've also had this "reallocation" PPs have spoken of! My arms and legs are thinner and it's all in my boobs, belly, hips and face. Seriously, I can't fit any of my pre-pregnancy pants over my hips, let alone my belly. But I swear I've only gained 2 lbs! And I have a double chin now. Sigh.
