I've just worked it out I've put a stone on ( actually 15lbs) since Feb 16th when I found out I was…

That's a pound a week every week when you average it out!

I'm 32 weeks now and last time I weighed myself I was about 22 weeks and had put on 2 stones and I'm classed as obese, I wouldn't let it stress you out too much as long as you and baby are healthy then enjoy the time where it's ok to put on weight lol xxx

I gained a stone quickly then it slowed down don't worry to much we all gain weight differently

I'm not gonna lie by 33 weeks I put on 4 stone!! still trying to lose the baby weight and he's months old Saturday x

@briony1994, thanks honey, just feel like it's spiralling a bit, me and baby are healthy and I'm thankful about that, think I'm just worrying how I'm guna manage work till 35 weeks (I'm in my feet all day in hospital) and also how much I'll have to lose after, on top of what I needed to lose anyway!

@ljay, @gemloudow thanks ladies, it's nice to hear I'm not the only one! I'm going to try and be heather now, it was my birthday at the weekend and all we did is go out for meals and eat cake etc all weekend lol healthy new start today!!

tbh I wouldn't worry too much you'll get rid of the baby weight after. it's sometimes unavoidable :( your growing a beautiful baby♡

Don't worry too much over it, like I said as long as you and baby are healthy then it's ok and you can also loose the weight after baby is here even by going for walks with Baby that will help xxx

I wouldn't worry, as long as your midwife is keeping a good eye on blood pressure and urine. I was a 16, and overweight when I got pregnant, and am 40 weeks now and have put on 2 stone, but that's not including the extra 9lbs that went back on after losing them in the first trimester! Weight isn't really something they worry about, more the other symptoms surrounding it 😊 just watch out for oedema X

@ooohjaadiie, thanks honey, what's the symptoms of oedema please?

it's just the swelling of the hands and feet, water retention. They'll make sure your blood pressure is good and urine is free of sugar, you don't get weighed throughout pregnancy anyway. If you think you are swelling too much though, mention it to midwife 😊

@ooohjaadiie, thank you I'm ok at moment for swelling so all good! Think I'm just trying to be aware of my weight, rather than let it creep and creep till I'm massive lol

other than eating sensibly, and trying to do as much exercise as you're comfortable, there isn't anything you can do. It's not down to you how much weight you're putting on, it's all the waters and god knows what else that happens to the body 😊

@ooohjaadiie, I also get pain in my pubic area which I'm sure us the start of psd, so probably only swimming that would be ok for exercise, to be honest around my working hours and other things to fit into life I feel too tired to exercise lol probably being lazy but there ya go lol

yeah I got sciatica from 10 weeks and SPD, swimming is good 😊
