Can we do another weight gain check in?

Amaher01 · July 2014

I'm 25 weeks and have gained 15 pounds. My doctor said 25 pounds would be ideal for my height, weight, BMI. I think I will probably go over that with 15 weeks to go. I'm hopeful to not go over 30, but baby wants what baby wants!!

26 weeks and 20lbs. My doc says she wants me to gain 35, though. So I think I am on track....

20 lbs at 25 weeks.

jacquelinef09 · July 2014

I've gained 11 lbs and I'm 28+2... This is mostly because I'm having gallbladder issues and it hurts to eat... But I'm hungry all the time! Smdh

I'm at 28 weeks and gained 25 pounds! I started under weight, I am a fitness instructor too so i have been very active and are great foods, my body just needed the gain I suppose!

erinchrisitne424 · July 2014

Down 5lbs since last appointment. Net gain of +2 at 26 weeks1 day. My OB said I'm measuring fine even when I seemed concerned. So that was a relief

Up 12 pounds at 25 weeks

andrieya · July 2014

29 weeks--up 25lbs. I freaked a few weeks back because I gained 12lbs in 4 weeks, but at my appt on Thursday, no change.

jillcbarnett22 · July 2014

29 weeks and up 24 lbs. from my conception date. My doctor isn't concerned and told me I looked great but the # is kinda bothering me. Like katesandandy I am also a fitness instructor and I've stayed pretty active, but it's hard. My belly is measuring right on track, thankfully.

Amaher01 · July 2014

28 weeks (tomorrow) and I'm up almost 20 lbs. 19.5 to be exact

feeling pretty good, except I have some foot swelling and I can't really bend over!

Justabean3 · July 2014

28w up 17

KingsDaughter76 · July 2014

I am 26/4 and I have gained 25 lbs total so far....Midwifes are happy with that, so I am too.

shelly2314 · July 2014

I am currently 29 weeks with twins and have gained 38 lbs so far.

Caseymama · July 2014

I am at 28 weeks 2 days and I had gained 16lbs.

This thread makes me feel huge. I'm up 30 pounds at 26 weeks.

MrsSinner402 · July 2014

At my 28w appt I was up about 19 lbs. I'll give or take +/- 3 or 4 lbs because I dont know my exact weight when I conceived, just the first weigh in at my 8w appt.

That's how I am too. I don't know how much I weight when I got pregnant. I'm just going by what the doctor tells me. I'm not as much of a freak about keeping track this time around.

Its scary seeing the number so high because I used to be very overweight. I lost 50lbs before we conceived. Used to be almost 200 lba at 5'4". Got down to 136 before Christmas. So I was the lowest I'd been since 10th grade. Now I see that number creeping up and its scary. I know its for a good reason, but when you've lost a lot of weight it will always be an underlying worry. :-S

pnwlover12 · July 2014

I only weigh myself the days I have appointments so I don't freak out too badly about the #s. Last week I had an appt and was up 9lbs in one friggen month, which was by far the most I've gained in a month's period. I cried a little at my MW appt but she wasn't concerned. I'm up a total of 28lbs.

Ravenbaby · July 2014

Up 26lbs at 29weeks.

willamina28 · July 2014

I'm up 12 lbs at 27 weeks.

I started out considered overweight though (171 and 5'5") so I was told to aim for 15-20 lbs (which already I can see at least another 10lb gain which will put me at 22 lbs total, so we'll see.

atraveller · July 2014

Okay, reading all these posts, I feel huge. I'm at 27 pounds at 29 weeks, days. At this point, I'm just hoping to not go over 35 pounds, but fear with 2 1/2 months to go I probably will.

Acoyston · July 2014

26 weeks and 2 days up 15 pounds I think..... Fear is that I have gained to much already ....

melaniedel · July 2014

Hmm. My OB 's scale says 10-11, but its a dial scale so not sure. Mine is always off because I have to move it so often. It is digital and said 15 today. So who knows?!

roundabout2 · July 2014

28 lbs at 29 weeks. I normally gain 40 so hoping to stay under that this time, though looks like I'm on track to gain that 40 again

imagine7696030614 · July 2014

I'll check in again too. I'm up about 25 pounds at 29 weeks. Wonder what the max possible weight gain is for the remaining 11 weeks?

Liss1481 · July 2014

Just had my appointment and I'm up about 18 pounds at 26w3d

kgrisham18 · July 2014

I'm up 25lbs at 30 weeks. Looks like I'm right on track for 35lb weight gain. I'd hate to see how much I would have gained if I didn't keep up the workouts.

lrobi13 · July 2014

Well I started off with a bit of extra "fluff", thanks holidays! I have gained 12 and I am 29w 6d. I will say that I am kinda grateful to the gd diet for keeping me in line. Not being able to eat my feelings has helped bunches.

I am supposed to only gain 15-20 so hopefully I manage but this baby seems to be getting so much bigger everyday.

CraftonKirkpatrick · July 2014

I am 28 weeks and 2 days, I have gained about 17ibs. I get so nervous about gaining a lot and it makes me emotional! your girls made me feel better!

dreab737 · July 2014

26 weeks and at 5'9 I've gained a total of 10lbs the baby weighs 2lbs. My pants all still button although my tshirts have become belly shirts. I feel like these next few month's are going to catch up to me.

Runner313 · July 2014

I am 30 weeks and up 26 pounds.

With DD, I gained 43 lbs and lost 38 of that. I was hoping not to gain as much but it looks like that is impossible for me to do.

[Deleted User] · July 2014

So my appointments for the past few months have been in the late afternoon, so they're weighing me with all my bloat and lunch and snacks for the day. When I would weigh myself pre-pregnancy, I'd do it in the morning with no clothes on, before I've eaten, and after I've used the bathroom. I was 133. My last doctor's appointment on Thursday they weighed me at 147 - perfect weight gain in my doc's opinion.

This morning I weighed myself for the first time since becoming pregnant. I did it exactly the way I used to (before shower, breakfast, etc), and I registered at 131. What?! Maybe my bathroom scale is off but that doesn't seem right. I weigh less now than I did pre-pregnancy, yet there is a 16 lb difference if I'm weighed at the OB office in late afternoon? Weirdness.

archi35 · July 2014

Up 17 at 27 but I've been working out pretty religiously up until this week. Now I've got all kinds of hip and knee pain which is limiting some of what I was doing before. I'm sure the weight will kick in quickly because my appetite has increased this week too. Argh.

megaddie · July 2014

I am at 29 weeks and have gained 10 pounds. I started out over my normal weight though--I had put on 20 pounds after two consecutive losses when I got pregnant again. I think I am doing good--the doctor seems pleased.

kaclovesbill · July 2014

16 weeks and 5 days and up 7 lbs :-) I workout/ crossfit everyday.. Loving it! :-)

@MrsSinner402‌ way to go losing 50lbs! And you're right, you're gaining for a great reason and you always look stunning every HDBD.

From my 1st appt at 12 weeks to my last appt at 25 weeks, I was up 6 lbs but I'm not sure how much I weighed before my BFP so who knows.

Thanks love! It was a great feeling hitting that 50 lbs mark. Aaaaand now I'm creeping back up there and its scary! However this time its all in my belly and boobs, not evenly distributed so I'm not too terribly concerned about losing it after bebe.

Bnjarrell13 · July 2014
