Any tips on losing weight during the second trimester?? I gained 18lbs at 14 weeks but I was under…

If you were that underweight it's likely your baby NEEDS that extra weight and fat storage to grow. It'll be okay mama it happens babies need more then you think.

@thehowtohippie, good to know I'm worried about complications due to gaining weight so quickly

That's a really good thing! I just began gaining weight around 32 weeks and my little one was taking everything he could from me and now I'm the one with complications due to not being able to gain weight. You're very lucky!

weight gain usually happens fast in the beginning, then tapers off. If your doctor is concerned, he/she will let you know.

with how small you were you definitely had to gain extra! don't worry. unless your Dr says something I wouldn't sweat it I have gained about 32 pounds and I'm almost 33 weeks.

Some people/babies need more then others and at different times will they gain their weight. I gained almost 60 pounds with my son and he needed every single ounce of that. He was over 9 lbs at birth and I seemed to have extra of everything. I lost 40 lbs in the two days following delivery, and the rest came off in the following 8-10 weeks without me doing a thing. As long as your eating healthy and doing light work outs a few times a week you and baby will be fine.
