11 week weight gain?

sarahjanisse · November 2013

How much have you all gained at 11 weeks? I'm up about 6-7 lbs and feel discouraged about it! They just upped my synthroid by 50 mg though...hope it helps!

I'm down 3 lbs thanks to m/s.

Chellbell20 · November 2013

I'm up 2-3lbs at 12 weeks. Everyone gains differently, and as long as you eat right and get some exercise in (when you can, m/s and other complications may make that impossible) then you're doing fine.

I haven't weighed myself this week, but at 10 weeks I was same as my pre-pregnancy weight. I think its safe to assume everybody is going to gain weight differently, but everyone says it evens out in the end.

ckandi007 · November 2013

I'm also down 3 lbs but the nausea has subsided and my appetite is back so I'm sure I'll be making up for it.

2014poppy · November 2013

Up around 5 lbs at 12 weeks (was there are 11 weeks). I'm slightly worried it will just keep going up and up but hoping it will work itself out. I haven't exercised since becoming pregnant so I'm hoping to soon.

I'm up about 6-7, but I was the same way with DS and only ended up gaining 24 total. It evens out as long as you're not going crazy. I was doing WW for about 9 months and stopped when I got pregnant, so I'm sure a little bit of the gain is from stopping and eating a little differently than when I was on it.

I'm up 2-3, but with my first I definitely gained more and faster, with my second I gained significantly less and put it on slowly, this time I guess we'll see

I'm actually down 8 lbs at 11 weeks with twins ... however, I started out over 200, had really bad morning sickness for several weeks, and I'm being proactive about GD (my grandmother, mother, aunt, and sister all had it for every pregnancy) so I'm eating much better stuff than before I was pregnant.

Empireceo · November 2013

At my appointment yesterday, I was up 2.5 pounds at 14 weeks. I had to make sure she didn't say 12.5 because I've been eating like a monster.

dp1320 · November 2013

I'm up 5-6 at 12 weeks...feels like 20 though.

CallMeMrsChaos · November 2013

I am up 6-8 pounds at 12 weeks. But my doctor said not to worry it all evens out in the end. I did not have any morning sickness to combat it, and i started pretty small to begin with.

LUCKY22 · November 2013

I up about 6lbs and am fairly certain that can be attributed to an additional 3lbs per boob.

CookingStar · November 2013

I'm down 4 pounds but that's okay, I'm overweight. Hard for me to figure out what I feel like eating, so most of time I just starve....

julesf817 · November 2013

Gah...i'm up 9 lbs at almost 12 weeks.

i'm hoping what some folks said about it evening out in the end is true, because i've still been walking quite a bit and while i've definitely been eating more, i haven't been going crazy or eating much junk.

i ordered a pre-natal exercise DVD to start doing so i hope that helps too.

Sarac2288 · November 2013

I'm 12 weeks and have gained about 3 lb Which surprises me with the way I eat

momo214 · November 2013

I'm down a pound or two from ms. If I could manage food I would prob be up 10.

QOTR · November 2013

I'm down 8 due to nausea & food aversions. However, my sweet tooth is finally returning so I expect to make up for lost time over the coming weeks!

blibby0713 · November 2013

I'm up 4-5lbs. Been stressing about school, so that doesn't help. The end is in sight though, 2 weeks. Hope to keep my again to 25lbs through my pregnancy.

deanna1313 · November 2013

I am up 1 pound. First, I lost two then went back to my normal weight and finally gained a pound. You said you are on synthroid so with a thyroid problem weight gain may be very different for you compared to people without. My Mom has a thyroid problem, too.
6-7 Lbs doesn't sound bad to me

alyssajanell5 · November 2013

Down 3 pounds at 13 weeks. Not due to ms but the fact that I get full so easily now. Don't know why.

KaraS12 · November 2013

I am up 2 pounds at 12w3d. However, my doctor's scale weighs me about 6 pounds more than my own, but similar weight gain...I'm going to pretend mine is more accurate

RachelCA29 · November 2013

I dropped 6 lbs by week 11 (and I didn't have a lot of morning sickness, but was definitely not as hungry as normal). Now I'm in that "hungry all the time" phase, and I graze all day (trying to make it super healthy snacks) but I've only gained about 3 lbs back, so at almost 13 weeks I'm still lower than my pre-pregnancy weight!

If I don't start seeing more add on, I might make an extra appointment to see my doctor, because I thought the 1/lb per week gain was supposed to start at week 12. I don't want to gain too little weight and risk babies health.

That being said, even though I am hungry all the time, I can only eat small portions. I get so full so fast, and them I'm hungry like an hour later. I hope that's normal!

When I went to my family doctor for my first appointment with her (not my OB) the nurse screwed up my weight so bad. I guess she was in a rush, but I still had my coat and boots on, and she weighed me like 2.5 kg more than I actually weigh! My doc came in and looked at me, and looked at what the nurse wrote down and was like, you don't look like you weight that at all!

It only bugged me because I know I have lost weight in my first trimester and I feel like they should accurately track that in case something with my weight gain is wrong.

TrendyTina · November 2013

I'm still down 3 pounds and am almost 13 weeks. I'm hoping to start gaining soon.

IBackBevo · November 2013

I don't even want to know how much I have gained....

Sdufort1216 · November 2013

I used to eat basically vegetarian and not alot of protein... Used to consume about 1200 cal a day and since I got pregnant I'm tryin to eat healthier and now that I'm eating like a normal person I feel like I'm gaining alot. It's so depressing but if I kept eating like I used to my baby wouldn't be getting nourished ! Ahhh Idk what to do about it

megmegs · November 2013

I'm down 6 pounds at 14 weeks; stupid m/s.

Meg&Austin · November 2013

you need to keep eating. 1200 calories is really, really low even for someone trying to lose weight, and protein is SO important for your baby. eating a normal amount of calories is probably why it feels like you are gaining fast, but it'll even out. i try to remind myself that i have 9 months to be pregnant and the rest of my life to lose the weight after.

Ndunny3 · November 2013

My OB told me with my 1st oregnancy that some woman gain more in the beginning, less in the middle or less in the beginning more in the middle/end. It all evens itself out and all that matters is you have a healthy baby!!
With DD I Gaines 10 lb first trimester, with the pregnancy 1st trimester has been a 3lb weight gain. Don't stress!

kedbsn · November 2013

Ive lost 7 pounds so far, which amazes me because all I want to eat is dry carbs and I hardly had any energy to work out.

jntaylor11 · November 2013

5 lbs at 13 wks. Last time around I gained 12. Lol

arrowmama · November 2013

I've lost 5 pounds, however I'm overweight and my doctor told me I'm not allowed to gain any weight

that I can stay the same or lose some weight as long as I'm eating plent. I've been trying to make better choices in food, eating less food more often.

sparklingdiamond · November 2013

I think I have gained maybe 1-2 lbs.

jfletcher3113 · November 2013

I'm 13 weeks and down a couple pounds but I think I've lost some muscle definition since I'm not doing the crazy workouts I was before so that may explain it. I definitely have a belly forming though and I'm sure I'll make up for it in due time.

kiyamurph · November 2013

I'm 10 weeks and I just had my first OB appt on Monday. I didn't weigh myself when I found out I was pregnant, but the number was about the same as the last time I weighed myself (forever ago) so I don't think I've really gained weight yet. At most, I probably gained maybe a pound or two.

kat8805 · November 2013

14 weeks today, up 17lbs. Was a fatty before, was a fatty the last pregnancy, will be a fatty until I'm done baking this one. Then on to getting serious about getting skinny LOL

And it does even out. I lost my baby weight fairly quickly after DD.

RedInLove · November 2013

I've started to peak above the high of my pre-pg normal range, but it has gone back down to within my normal. I'm almost 13 weeks and have noticed this occur two times.

SpinelliSmith · November 2013

It changes daily because of the water weight but i know for a fact ther e's about 2lbs extra as of a couple days ago. I'm having twins so i'm surr every day that i feel good i'll just pack it on!!

DoodleDara · November 2013

I'm 12 weeks today and have gained about 1-2lbs or so. Wih all the crap I've been eating I'm surprised its not more, but I just can't stomach the healthy stuff that used to be a staple in my diet. I think I've probably gained more than that since I haven't been exercising as much I think I'm losing muscle and gaining more fat unfortunately but at least the scale is in my favor, lol.
