Okay, so does anyone else find it odd that my OB said you should only gain 10-15 pounds the ENTIRE…

My doctor says the amount you're "supposed" to gain depends.. if you're underweight, "normal" weight or over weight before you got pregnant.. umm i still went over the recommend weight lol

@leahsmommi, My pre weight was 150

@mommy.to.sterling, really?? My pre weight was 150 and I'm 5'4' and they keep asking like what I eat and how often and to watch my weight and stuff but like?? 15 pound to gain the entire pregnancy? Like uh seems a little unrealistic

I'm short af I'm 5'2 and was 130 starting now I'm at 165 and he's like lets take it easy. I have a month left. He can kiss my ass lol

Hahaha exactly!

I'm 5'2, was around 120 at the start and around 150 now with three months to go. My dr said nothing, my step mom is overly concerned but everyone else says I'm all baby and look healthy. Online you can get guidelines based on previous weight and height, but muscle weighs more than fat so it's still an approximation. I think as long as you get the basic food groups and aren't just sitting all day just take it in stride.

Yeah, I'm 16 weeks and I've only gained 2 pounds and they're like freaking out about it. I mean idk what else I could do! Lol. I exercise everyday. I eat fruits and vegetables all day. I eat fish and chicken every now and then. They're making me drink 2 gallons of water a day... like idk but this seems excessive. I'm not high risk and I'm not diabetic and everything with baby is great! So idk.

Sounds like it's time for a new dr @alimtz0510, remember to tag cuz then we won't see it lol

That's crazy , iv gained 21 pounds through out my pregnancy and to me I thought I wasn't gaining enough but it does depend on the person , I was 100 when I started then in the first trimester I gained some and then lost it and now it's when am actually gaining some weight

If you're overweight it's like 15lb. But average bmi is 25-39 according to my dr. I gained like nothing the first four months. And then 20 lb over 3 months. everyone is different.
