Weight Gain

I went to the dr this morning and I have gained 8 lbs so far at 16 weeks. Curious, where are other moms at so far with their weight gain or loss? How far a long? Are you happy with it, or what are you planning on changing to meet your weight goals!? 

I think i  I I need to amp up the walking and skip some snacks! I don't want to keep gaining 8 a month! 

Share mamas!

    yea everyone is different and there are a lot of factors that play a role. just because you gained 8lbs in the first 16 weeks doesnt mean that is what it will be for the next 2 trimesters. and BTW your gains seems well in the normal range.

    @kmornelas29 I gained about 8 pounds when I was at 16 weeks. I was a little shocked myself. My doctor said my weight gain was normal though.

    I really feel like i haven't been eating that much more than I usually do... although DH said, "I think you might be hungrier than you think," okay... I know some of the weight is the baby growing.

    I do think that I need to start working out more. DH and I planned a gym date for Saturday morning!

    I've gained 7 at 16 weeks.  But I had already gained 7 at 14 weeks, so in the past 2 weeks there's been no change.  I don't think you can look at your gain to date and assume that you'll keep gaining at steady intervals.

    Well everyone is different. I've gained well over 8lbs and im 17 weeks. Most of my weight gain was in the first trimester and ive started to slow down. My doctor hasn't said anything about my weight so im not going to stress about it. I'm growing a human, thats enough to worry about.

    Edit to add: Also, I just ate a box of Walkers Shortbread cookies. No shame. None.

    @dumbledoredies Thanks for the pizza gif. I saw a pizza hut commercial about a half hour ago that is making me want to order some something fierce. Give me all the carbs!! Said as I just finished a giant bowl of cheesy potato soup...

    I asked google about my weight gain, and like everyone else said, everyone is different. I did however ask my mom how she gained during her pregnancies to get an idea of what MIGHT happen, and it eased my mind. But with that being said; definitely consult your doctor. If they are concerned they'll address it.

    The purpose of this was not to ask someone's weight, rather the weight gain or loss. It's. Question my friends and I often talk about in person, and it's helpful to know where others are in relation to you. I for one, find it very helpful. 

    In addition, I was not asking to simply give moms a range of where others are. I am very well informed that everyone is not the same. I'm not even the same as my first pregnancy. 

    It is however a pegnancy topic that some like to discuss, because it helps keep you accountable. If you don't want to share or find it sentive to talk about then don't share. I never have found weight to be a sensitive topic, it's real life issues we all deal with. 

    Thanks to those who have shared with me and others on the board.  As I can see, we're all within a similar range. Good to know as a guideline.
