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

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..

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

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.

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

@mommamustain, you'll be ok tho! Lol

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

@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.

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

All off lol

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

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

@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!

Food kept calling my name

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

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

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

98 with my 1st

21 with my 2nd

So far 16 with my 3rd @24wks.

43 lbs

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

@mommamustain you're welcome, anytime! 😊

@skyy12221, Thank you so much for your advice!

Don’t wish it on my worse enemy

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

@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!

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

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

@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?

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

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

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

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

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

@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. 😊

@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.

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)

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

@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!

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

@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.

@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!!

@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.

1st: 49lbs

2nd: 30lbs

3rd: so far 11

@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!

I gained 49 lbs. 😑
