Ive only gained 1.5 lbs at 26 weeks. But i was quite overweight to begin with and have been the healthiest in my life since getting pregnant. Dr says baby measures fine and not to worry. Hoping that it will all balance out post partum and i will actually lose quite a bit post partum since i seem to have lost in fat whatever ive gained in baby weight so far.
I am the exact same way! I'm just not hungry! Last time I went to the doctor I had only gained 3 pounds. So I'm not sure how much I've gained now. But I just don't feel hungry- ever!
Uh I'm huge, my dr doesn't weigh at every appointment- maybe coz last time I cried lol Someone said something on this group about swelling up like a tick when they are pregnant, and I thought "that's me!" But, I know I'll get it off- most comes off in the few weeks after birth I just wish I was more like my mum- she walked out of hospital in size 4 jeans the day after giving birth
That's me! I blow up like a tick when I'm pregnant! I gain about 60 lbs and am on track to do the same this pregnancy. Try not to stress. I was back in my skinny jeans in 3 months! Besides, my hubby likes having a thick girl for a little while! Lol
Lol, my DH isn't complaining either- he's amazed at the boobs. They are so huge, My 3yo asked if I have two babies in them too
26 wks tomorrow and gained about 23 pounds. I started just underweight, always been thin. I know it's okay to gain 45ish pounds but I don't want to! Like some others I think my body is gaining some weight it just naturally needed. I haven't had food aversions or cravings. I do pretty good healthy eating wise but I definitely love to cheat!

This is me, too. My body doesn't know how to do skinny and pregnant.
With DD I think I gained around 70 pounds? With DS, it was almost 80. And right now at 24w I am up 30 pounds.
With DD I ate healthy (lots of food allergies = tons of restrictions) and worked out 3x/week. With DS I had to stop working out at 13w and my diet was even more restricted. This go-around I'm working out 3x/week and eating pretty well, and it's the same deal. I hate feeling like a whale and don't like looking in the mirror, but I keep reminding myself that I've had 2 successful full-term pregnancies, with healthy-weight babies and uncomplicated deliveries.... So this is the norm for my body. With my pregnancy with DD I lost all the weight by 6m. With DS I kept 10 pounds even after, but I was underweight when I got pregnant with him.

I'm 24 wks. 2 days and haven't gained a single oz. I've had almost no appetite and lost quite a bit of weight due to Hypermesis Gravidarum! My belly is huge though and baby is measuring large and looks really large in ultra sound and is very active! Just happy she's healthy!
