What has everyone gained during pregnancy? My mom gained 60 pounds with both my brother & i. I've heard you normally have pregnancies like your mother. Should I expect to end up gaining about that much or is that a high amount ?
@paigesanchez14, that's the way I am I don't eat for two and I eat healthy for the most part. I just can't help but gain this weight and I don't want my doctor to go and put me on a diet . I'm just scared .
Your doctor? My doctor already nags at me about gaining weight and makes jokes @morgans_mommie I try to ignore it also cause I really have been trying to not eat junk food and eat 24/7 . And I feel like yes 8 pounds in only almost 18 weeks is a lot but it's not like I'm sitting on my ass eating all day I work, and am raising my 1 year old nephew.Just feel like he's going to end up putting me on a diet it's my worst fear . My first pregnancy and I don't think I would be able to handle being told to go on a diet .
@countrymommy0916, my doctor only wanted me to gain 15-20 lbs and I am way past that. I never over ate or used the excuse I'm eating for 2 my body just gained what it wanted to lol
@countrymommy0916, no no diet. I couldn't do that. I have to completely ignore it to avoid falling into bad habits. I just wish she would shut up sometimes. Lol
Did your doctor tell you you've gained too much? @morgans_mommie if so has he put you on a diet ? I eat pretty healthy fruit and vegetables as snacks and regular three meals a day and I try not to over do it . Just feel like with how much I've already gained that I'm going to gain a ton also!
My mom gained almost 80, breastfed and it ALL fell off. That's crazy!
I'm thinking I'll gain a lot without meaning to. Already gained too much!
@earthmama, @paigesanchez14 @taylorraye @wyatts_mommy_0106 thanks ladies! My doctor hasn't told me about how much I should gain! Im going to have to ask now!
I was 122 pre pregnancy. I'm currently 134 lbs and 33 weeks pregnant. So far only 12 lbs but my doctor expects me to gain about 10 more in the next 7 weeks.
I'm 35 weeks and I've gained 40 so far, but I look like I'm all baby.
That's normal weight gain. 30 for the whole pregnancy is what my midwives said is the max I should gain. I've gained 12, and I'm going to be 22 tomorrow.
I'm sure your okay, everyone gains differently honestly depends on you metabolism. I was sick a lot so i didn't even gain 10 lbs before 25 weeks. but if your worried try not to over eat or over due it on the snacks and transfat
I've gained 30 so far and I'm preggo with twins. Im 34 weeks and babies are currently measuring 5+ lbs. Hoping they come earlier but have csection scheduled for 38 weeks.
Honestly I wouldn't worry unless your dr says something about your weight gain. I was slightly overweight when I started this pregnancy and I was worried about the weight gain as well but my dr hasn't said anything about it
surprisingly I only gained 26 lbs with this recent pregnancy. My mom gained 40+ with me. But we both ended up having 9 lb babies.
Thank you ladies! I've gained what I feel is a lot already! 8 pounds and I'm only almost 18 weeks . That's why I'm so concerned ! @ftm0903 @mahaylasmomma @raelynnsmommy @santistevanmommie
I went from being 110 before pregnant to 147 now. I'm almost 37 weeks.
It really depends on your body. Some will gain a lot and some won't. I've just passed the normal 35lbs weight gain. You might be like your mom and you might not
I've gained about 45 pounds so far and I'm due next month.
my mom gained a lot, she's always been on the heavier side, i on the other hand have anyways been tiny and have only gained 17lbs. I'll be 35 weeks on Saturday. i only gained 14 lbs by week 30. most of the weight comes during the last trimester anyways
everyone is different some gain a lot some gain a little some gain none. my cousin gained what her son weighed at birth which was like 7 pounds lol just eat right and you'll be fine
Thank goodness @ftm0903 @martinajjones I really don't wanna be gaining 60 pounds lol!!
my mom gained a lot with me I haven't gained hardly any weight.
lol, my mom gained 40 with me and I'm 33 weeks and I've only gained 10 pounds. and that was just within the last two weeks. I think it just depends on who you are and what going on in the pregnancy
Is it normal to only have gained 1 pound my whole pregnancy? My doctor says it’s fine but to me it sounds like a serious problem. With my first I gained 40 pounds lol.
I gained 26 pounds my whole pregnancy
10lbs away from my pre-pregnancy weight 🙌🏼 (although i could use to loose another 15 after that lol) 😆
I gained 65lbs with my first child, and 40lbs with my second.
What did you all gain with yours?
what kind of bra does everyone wear? I had big boobs before pregnancy and I've gained in my boobs already, my bra is too tight. I need something with good support and no underwire.
my doctor said i should only gain 10 to 15 pounds during my pregnancy!!! any one else??? This sounds impossible to me!!
Thank you @junebaby
