How much weight gave you gained so far?

MrsJohnson0806 · October 2013

Due Jan 18 and so far I'm up 7lbs. I lost probably around 8 in the first tri and gained it all back. Doc keeps telling he to eat more which is hard because there's not much room in there, and I rarely feel hungry.

Omg @MarBee1214. If I had water in my mouth I would have done a spit take. Lol!

leslie1112 · October 2013

I will be going to get weighed in a couple of weeks.. My due date is Jan 29th. So far Since my last visit I only gained 6 lbs! The doctor said that was fine. Baby iseasuring perfectly. I am not complaining by any means!

Maggiechina · October 2013

I'm due Jan 15 and have gained 27 lbs... But I swear at least 50% of it is in my boobs... They are bigger than my belly... I can't find large enough bras, and I feel like a top heavy freak of nature.

aessary03 · October 2013

Geez enough with the weight posts. Especially if you're going to brag about your measly 7 lbs. Congratulations to you.

KariK2 · October 2013

No idea. And I dont want to know either! I get weighed at each OB visit and I guess she would let me know if my weight gain was abnormal. Im really happy not knowing! I eat healthy most of the time and exercise regularly. As long as LO is fine Im not going to bother about my weight gain too much. It happens!
Im very new here so I cant be sure but we havent we had WAY too many weight related posts here?? Urgh :-S

SunflowersBride · October 2013

Humblebrag? Anyway, I'm due January 17th and up about 17 lbs.

Here's my contribution to the 900th weight post this week .....I'm going to eat either coffee cake or a cheese mother fuckin Danish for breakfast or maybe even both- so you can probably guess how much I've gained so far!!!

peanutmuse · October 2013

I'm feeling a bit feisty.

I am 24 weeks today. I have gained 11 pounds. And I can do the coffee grinder.

One million pounds....is that bad!? :-/

(Ugh if only I could gif from my phone)

cpm1223 · October 2013

@peanutmuse you are awesome!

mrsjenni · October 2013

Sigh. But assuming you're asking this innocently enough (I must be in a good mood), I'm up 14lbs in 23 weeks. 7 of those pounds were gained in the last 4 weeks and I'm blaming it ALL on the baby. Ahem.

moosebaby2011 · October 2013

Mmmm.... Cheese danish. Unfortunately none to be found in my house so I'll settle for a pumpkin spice bagel slathered in cream cheese. Yum.

peanutmuse · October 2013

I am totally eating a pumpkin pie donut in about 20 minutes.

Roses87 · October 2013

There was like a weight poll like a few days ago. Go look at the results. Your question well be answered.

silentsiren11 · October 2013

I just got back from Tim Hortons, where I got an apple fritter and pumpkin donut AND a pumpkin pie white hot chocolate. Yum!

bnik · October 2013

No mooooore! No more weight posts!

I feel like this is attention and compliment seeking. If your Dr.'s are telling you what to do I would do that since they are the professionals. I've gained 18 so far.

I literally just ate this for breakfast... with bacon... of course

PreDempsey · October 2013

Peanut I'm almost inspired to get up and try that dance move but then I'd have to make a post called "23 weeks and I broke my nose" but that is pretty bad ass.

apickett925 · October 2013

Well, I bought these yesterday.....

Then I decided I also wanted these:

Then we went to Outback and I ordered this:

Sooooo, yeah. I'm still under 20lbs gained....

OSUWifey09 · October 2013

Another weight post. Yay.

24 weeks and up 18 pounds. Probably gained a couple of more since my last weigh-in since I ate my weight in cereal this morning. Nom.

Tylynngrace · October 2013

I'm 24 weeks today and I gained about 35 pounds cause I was really underweight when I got pregnant. And I just love fatty foods!

MindyBadger1 · October 2013

I've had a couple people I know IRL who've made comments about weight like this one.... One even "water loaded" before going to the OB so she wouldn't get in trouble for poor weight gain.

Get over yourself. Eat frequent small meals. You're growing a flippin' human being. Add butter or peanut butter or calorie dense foods to your diet. There IS room.

All of these women went into preterm labor, by the way. Luckily all with good outcomes.

25 weeks, up at least 15 pounds (maybe closer to 20?) and I look good!!

moosebaby2011 · October 2013

@apickett925 I ate an entire package of Double Stuffed Oreos this week by myself. Well, in 3 days. Mine were peanut butter and they were awesome.

I dipped them all in milk so that makes them good for me, right?

@mindybadger1 - I don't think this is very constructive. I'm 27w3d and have only been able to gain 4 lbs. I don't say this to "brag" - I say this because I have been really trying to gain weight, and can't. That's how I've been my whole life. I eat all the time, and make sure to eat lots of protein, and even eat more junk than I should.

Preterm labor is a huge fear of mine, and I feel like I'm doing something wrong every time I step on the scale to see if I've gained - so comments like yours about how everyone you know who didn't gain weight went into preterm labor really isn't helpful.

*side eyes OP* ... *runs away to eat another pumpkin pancake*

Dishylo · October 2013

Early morning food posts are not helpful!!! Luckily there's a Tim Hortons 3 blocks away so...if I walk there and back I'm getting some exercise an a treat!! Pumpkin spice donuts, here I come!!

monkeybutt61612 · October 2013

@COgirl29 I think the difference between you and OP is that you are actually trying to eat more for the health of your baby, OP does not seem to be doing the same. I think @Mindybadger1's point is that those she knew who went into PTL weren't eating enough,

This, exactly.

ETA-- it's the truth... some of my acquaintances were an extra special kind of crazy and were excessively exercising on top of it.

My biggest point is (not well worded, I get irritated with all these weight posts) is to listen to your doctor's concerns about too little (or too much) weight and take steps to work toward that goal. Obviously, cogirl, you're doing that.

RobynLovesDano · October 2013

@peanutmuse you are my hero!

Im 27 weeks, and on a see food diet :P. I plan to not look at the scale for the rest of my pregnancy lol

COgirl29 · October 2013

Well I apologize if I read into it wrong.

WinsyWade · October 2013

Mmmm... @apickett I lurve Alice Springs Chicken. Nomnomnom.

tootsscott · October 2013

We're on our way out of town and I said I needed to pick something up.. Something from Tim Hortons bc it's cheap and I can't do burgers anymore (I've probably had 50 this week!) and my husband suggests chicken burger from McD's... Okay... What do I do?? "NO LETTUCE ON MINE!"

cnctf · October 2013

13 lbs in 25 weeks..and now I want a pumpkin cream cheese muffin!

rcultrona · October 2013

(Facetious snobby tone) I am 26 weeks and have actually lost 45 pounds. I'm never hungry for anything besides lettuce and water and even though I am pregnant I still manage to run a half marathon every morning before work. Then when I get home I clean the entire house from top to bottom because I feel that great and have that much energy to spare. In the evenings (after I have made DH a 9 course dinner and have dined on my lettuce and water because, did I mention I feel fantastic and am NEVER hungry?) I work on my novel and then off to bed for a perfect uninterrupted 8 hours of sleep. Never in my life have I felt so skinny and pretty and perfect.

Now, someone please hand me a cheese danish and can we please stop with the obnoxious skinny pregnant chick posts!?
