I gained 39. I think the recommendation was to gain 25-30, and oddly, those extra 9 lbs are the ones that are hanging on. Damn them for being right.

Son of a bitch! You're right. I've lost 30 of the pounds I gained and the rest is still hanging on for dear life.

I was in really good shape before I got Prego, then I ate all the food and gain between 55 adn 60. I have lost it fairly easily, but I am all flabby so I look heavier.

TREDgirl · September 2014

I started at 156 and topped out at 210. Although once I went on bed rest I lost 8 pounds of swelling/ water weight in like 2 days. Delivery day I was 202.

My dr never once told me to aim for x number. She told me straight up from the first apt that I was going to gain a good bit.

Add - A lot of mine came in the last half of the second trimester and thrid trimester. My doctor actually had a "talk" with me. I left that appt. in tears, called work to say I wasn't coming back, went to Smach Burger and ate my feelings.

As shown in FFFC, I gained 81 lbs. I was 120 lbs at my first drs appt (8 weeks preg) and I was 201 on labor day. Yeah, not good.

Yup, we are almost twinsies. 125 PP, 200 at last appt.

lefnc82 · September 2014

I gained about 25, I think the only thing that kept me from gaining a ton was the GD diet, otherwise I know I would have eaten all the food in sight!

Amjoy25 · September 2014

35 exactly. I gave no fucks about having "GD".

Ajoyd · September 2014

Somewheres between 30-35. Why I am still holding on to 15 of that is beyond me.

chelseyestelle · September 2014

55. Started at 127 and ended at 182. #fatty

ETA: I was also sick the entire time throwing up and ended up in the hospital twice for fluids. I lived on zofran. No idea how I gained so much.

Except I can't lose mine my goal weight is 135 and I am stuck at 165.

Are you still nursing? I can't remember. My weight wouldn't budge until I finally quit nursing and pumping about 8 weeks ago.

layali · September 2014

I gained 20ish, thanks GD diet (god damn, gestational diabetes, you pick). I gained more since, unfortunately, instead of getting closer to my pre-preg weight. I miss the gym, but I'm prioritizing sleep more these days.

PinkDahLia44 · September 2014

Flutterby00 · September 2014

I gained 25 lbs. But I was already overweight to begin with so, yeah. I am down 10lbs from PP weight, and want to lose another 20-30lbs.

Foofie&thebean · September 2014

Team sick during whole pregnancy but gained weight after birth.

I only gained 12 lbs and Emma wieghed 9.9 of those but it was so nice to be able to eat after she was born I haven't stopped!

countingthestars · September 2014

kelle017 · September 2014

I think about 35 but I was up 45 when I left the hospital because of all the I've fluids. I was back to my weight at about 3 1/2 months.

MissLauraPants · September 2014

40

carawasa · September 2014

too many #s to count

alimama33 · September 2014

30 on the dot. Those last five are making themselves comfortable though...

ashleymarie512 · September 2014

At my last OB appt before delivery I was up about 20-25lbs, at about 28 weeks. When I had LO at 29-6, they weighed me at the hospital, but I never saw it. I know it was quite a bit higher, but don't know what. It was all fluids from the pre-e. At two weeks pp, I was 7 away from pp weight, so lost the fluid quick.

Heather91011 · September 2014

I gained 27

mweav1025 · September 2014

I gained about 25 pounds. Which is what I gained with DD1. This time around they didn't tell me anything about gaining weight. With DD1, we were in a different state so a different OB and the first appointment I went to was with one of the midwives and she told me that it wouldn't be bad if I gained at least 50lbs. I left that appointment thinking 'yeah right' and I gained about half that and never worried one bit.

cassey910 · September 2014

I gained 24.
