I am almost 22 weeks and i have gained 18 lbs.....i feel huge and the babies are big too..at the 20 week scan they were 13oz..and 17oz. Just wondering if you all have gained asuch weight?
I was really sick in the beginning - I lost 15 lbs. I am now back to my starting weight. So I guess I have gained 15 lbs. I was getting really worried because I know you are supposed to gain a certain amount to help make sure they are healthy. Now that I can eat, I am making up for it!
@kelseyjane2015 yea...i wasnt gaining to much at first but just in the last two weeks i have gained most of it...they also started kicking alot...maybe i just have big boys lol
At my OB I lost 2 pounds. The next day, I went to my MFM and gained 6. My girls are 7 ounces each and I'm measuring 20 weeks(18 weeks along). I read in a couple different books that weight gain with multiples would be more.
I don't own a scale (they are the devil) but at my 15 week appointment I had gained 10lbs. I was really skinny before I got pregnant and my MS had me living on carbs and eating every 2 hours for 6 straight weeks. I didn't gain anything between 7wks and 15wks though. I have my 20wk anatomy scan this week - hopefully I won't have gained a ton yet. My doctor says at 20weeks I should expect to gain a pound a week. Holy smokes!
I will say with a bella band all my pants still fit - I'm told I am all stomach (I disagree but appreciate the compliment. Lol)
@GoodSuri I should note that I am also fairly overweight, so the change in diet contributed to the weight loss as well. I'm just glad my boys are healthy At my 20 wk appointment they were 10oz and 11oz. I am 21+1 and I am just now feeling little kicks due to an anterior placenta.
Re: Moms with twins..how much weight have you gained?
