Weight gain at 19-20 wks

HisBetterHalf · December 2008

One of my books says 8-14lbs is normal weight gain for this point. I've only gained 3. I'm pretty excited because I gained a total of 45 with DD and I DO NOT want that to happen again. Luckily I was able to get back to my pre preg weight after DD was born.

The booklet the hospital gave me says 8 pounds at 20 weeks is ideal. I've already gained about 12. Sigh.

I was up 2 at 21 weeks, but in the last week, I have gained half a pound already, so I am sure it will be all too quick to pile on from now on.

I didn't gain that much early on or even at the half way point with DD. The pounds packed on believe it in the last 7 weeks. This time I have been gaining a little more, but all within range my Dr says.

B!tches! I was up 20lbs at 20wks. Damn you all!

Oh well... everyone is different, right?

I think my book said 10-15 is normal at this point. As of yesterday, I've gained 9 lbs. I'm okay with that. My doc said my gains have been perfect.

My sis is 18 weeks pg and has gained 15 lbs.

I was up 20lbs at my last appointment, which was at 19 weeks. I don't feel like I've gained that much and my doctor hasn't yelled at me, so I guess I don't really care.

I'm at 23lbs at 22 weeks.

Oh well. I'm over it.

My doctor hasn't yelled at me either (although we'll see if he does on this time on Friday). I don't know where it's going either because I don't look that big. Everyone even says that I look so small for 24 weeks. Oh well... c'est la vie.

I was up 8 lbs at that point..

LWright · December 2008

At 19/20 weeks, I was up 15 lbs. UGHH!!

animalcrckers · December 2008

i'm back to my pre-pregnacy weight. i was shocked when the doctor said i'd only gained a pound from my last visit!

moore05 · December 2008

Yeah thats what my book says....I'm 22 weeks and still haven't gained any. I'm sure my time is coming though. I've heard you really pack on the pounds in your 3rd tri.

MissLMS · December 2008

My doctor says everyone gains differently.. some people more in the beginning, some people all along, others more in the third tri.

I've gained about 18 pounds at 22 weeks. I expressed concern to my doctor, who said I'm perfectly fine and as long as I stay within the 1 pound a week mark from here on out I'll still be within my recommended weight gain.

I was up 12 pounds at my 20 week appt (although, that appt was the morning after Thanksgiving- unfair!)

I broke my own rule and stepped on my scale at home two days ago. I think I'm up 20. I eat like crap though, so I'm pretty sure it's my own fault.

same here. The # sounds big (especially compared to you all) but I dont feel like I have gained anything excessive, so it must be OK.
