How much weight did you mommas gain during your pregnancies? My doc says I need to slow down, which I understand and can…

I gained 49 lbs. 😑

@rikki.ferguson, that’s what I’m afraid of! I have always been really conscious of calories and my nutrition.... when I got pregnant, I was just enjoying not having to watch what I eat. 😂😂 now I’m going to have to pull back on the reigns!

1st: 49lbs

2nd: 30lbs

3rd: so far 11

@mommamustain my doctor never got concerned about the weight gain. Some worry about it and some realize that it's just kind of a whatever thing. I did lose like 20 lbs shortly after I had my daughter, then gained almost all of it back, then lost some again. Lol. I didn't want to get fat but I wanted to eat everything during pregnancy.. eating won. Haha.

@rikki.ferguson, that’s how I am too!! 😂😂😂 I have a craving and I let myself have it!! I haven’t necessarily had any like “I’m going to die if I don’t have it” cravings.. but I do enjoy sweets!!

@skyy12221, this makes me feel better. The doctor just made me feel really bad about it. I mean I knew I was going overboard I just didn’t realize how bad.

Most insurances cover a nutritionist I had opposite problem I lost 68 with first and 12 with second

@mommysbabies, holy moly! I wish I would have lost. I know how to manage my weight, I just wasn’t doing it and using pregnancy as an excuse. 🙄🙄 I don’t even know why I let myself!

@mommamustain I craved tons of sweets and if I didn't get it I had a melt down. Lol

I gained 55 lbs(I dropped like 30 lbs after giving birth though so if you are personally worried the weight will stick it won't)

@rikki.ferguson, 😂😂😂😂 my husband tip toes around my cravings. He’s said things a few times like “could you not eat the junk” but then I about bit his head off.

@mommamustain just snack multiple times a day, watch what you eat and how much, drink water and 100% juice and you should be fine and its ok to cheat with junk every now and then just watch how much. 😊

@mommamustain, I don’t wish it on anyone I was super sick both times

@skyy12221, thanks girl!!! I really haven’t been drinking water much.. I don’t get thirsty! I think that will help a lot!

@mommysbabies, I didn’t even have any morning sickness. I didn’t know I was pregnant until I was 12 weeks!

@mommamustain, I had whole pregnancy sickness with my second I was in hospital a couple days before I got induced

@mommysbabies, oh no!! That sounds terrible!!!!

@mommamustain I know the feeling! Lol just ask yourself throughout the day if you've had water. Hot tea and hot chocolate count too! Are you staying active?

And I couldn’t take the meds that worked the best because it caused liver problems and I was already having them without needing the meds to make it worse

@mommysbabies, I can’t even imagine what that would be like!

@skyy12221, I wasn’t, but i have been this past week! Im a teacher and am on my feet allll day and was always exhausted when I got home! I’m just now getting to where I don’t feel so exhausted!

@mommamustain that's good! Keep it up! That'll also help burn off calories and keep some weight off

Don’t wish it on my worse enemy

@skyy12221, Thank you so much for your advice!

@mommamustain you're welcome, anytime! 😊

@nickee, that is partially what I am worried about! Lol I’m a thicker girl, so it’s easy for me to gain weight!

43 lbs

98 with my 1st

21 with my 2nd

So far 16 with my 3rd @24wks.

@boymom_lmb, I’m just happy to hear that I’m not the only one gaining weight! You guys are making me feel better!

@mercutia, my goal is to not gain more than 45!

My goal was not to gain more than 30, but I couldn’t really control it😂😂

Food kept calling my name

@mommamustain, eh it happens to

Us all at some point or another so it seems lol I'm down about gaining what I've even gained so far but long as babies are healthy I just try to not think so much about it.. I can get real depressed lol real curious to see how much I will gain, I've been having a normal appetite and now that all my energy is usually back I walk a lot so we will see!

@mercutia, 🙋🏼🤦🏼‍♀️ mine too but I'm almost @20 already so I doubt I'll get it right lol

@mercutia, that’s my problem too! 😂😂 I have just been letting myself have it!

@mommamustain, 1st baby? That was what I did, 98lbs of happiness 😂 .. till I had to work it

All off lol

@boymom_lmb, yessss!! Lol this is our first! That’s what my husband keeps saying “you’re gonna hate yourself when you have to work it all off”... and he’s right.

I've gained around 20-25 so far. Gained most of it in the beginning. I'm 36 weeks

@mommamustain, you'll be ok tho! Lol

I’m hoping that I’ve gained the majority of what I’m going to gain!

My problem seems to be that I lose weight that I don't need to lose. This pregnancy and with our daughter. With her I lost so much I looked like I was on crack.

@stevie.savoie22, I can see where that would be an issue too!!! Our bodies are so weird!

I’m 22 weeks as well! I’ve been concerned about not gaining enough weight. I’ve only gained 7 pounds. This is my first pregnancy..
