First time mom; at my 28 week appt I found out I've gained 26 lbs so far....doctor wants me to maintain weight by cutting out carbs, eating more greens & walk/exercise more.....I've felt so discouraged & disgusting since then...I didn't expect to gain this much so far with my first pregnancy but I'm always hungry!
I gained over 60 with my first and second and it came off very quickly! I didn't gain it again until they were in preschool.
tell your doctor to kick rocks. you're still in the normal range and this is when the baby fattens up, so you need to keep eating
I gained a lot of weight too and I'm a FTM. We're doing all this for our baby, cheer up! Go for walks around the neighborhood or park, it'll make you feel a lot better. Or swim if you can.
I went from being 117 pounds before pregnancy to being almost 180 pounds by the time I went into labor. The weight will easily come off after having your little one, especially if you breastfeed :) Even with a C-section, working out will help tone you back up. Don't worry. Gaining is good while pregnant
How much have you ladies gained so far ?? I've gained 64lbs 😳 my husband makes me feel shitty when I indulge by reminding me how hard it's gonna be to lose the weight once baby comes. I don't know if it hurts my feelings or pisses me off but my dr doesn't seem to be concerned about all this weight I've gained I started at 106lb so I was small to begin with. Talk about stressful
Weight Gain
What week are you and how much weight have you gained so far?
Up 30 lbs ?
Went to the doctor today and yup.... I've gained 30 pounds already. I'm 22w1d. My doctor is not worried at all. I was on phentermine pills (diet pills that help decrease appetite) before I got pregnant so my body was used to only eating once a day but I stopped taking them as soon as I thought I was pregnant. So now my body is just in shock with eating 3 meals plus snacks a day. I'm just like WOW 30lbs! I gained 45 with my first but I was heavier to start with my first . Oh well. Wh...
1st Trimester Weight Gain
Who else gained more than the "average" 4 lbs during the first trimester?? Just found out I gained 10 lbs!!!! Ughhh!! Super upset about that!!!
so far I am 27 weeks pregnant and weigh 131, prepregnancy weight was 115. So I've gained 16 pounds, no stretch marks also no weight gain in face or anywhere but my baby bump luckily. How much have you gained? How far along are you? I know everyone is different I'm just curious.
I'm only 14 weeks and I was 121 a month ago and now I'm 128....
