RANT: Well...I'm a whale!

Had my dr appointment today. Overall, at 30 weeks tomorrow, I have gained 35 lbs this pregnancy!!!!! Omg!! I have no idea how much I'm supposed to be gaining these last 10 weeks, but I think it'll be more than 15 lbs??? Ugh. I don't wanna gain 50+ lbs!!!

I've gained 40 already ?

Also sick of seeing "I've only gained 5 pounds this pregnancy!" posts. I mean, good for those of you who can say that, I wish I could say the same ?

Please tell me what you are doing to gain weight. I'm like the complete opposite and cannot figure out how everyone else is doing it.

I haven't stepped on the scale in a while cause I'm afraid of what it will be. With my first, I gained 46lbs, with my second I gained 57 lbs. I'm hoping I don't gain like 68 lbs!!!

You all complaining about gaining weight. I wish could gain some weight. I've tried everything but I just never have a big appetite.

Me too ?? I just turned 30wks and I have gained 33lbs ? I just hope what they say about breastfeeding is true and that I can lose it after she arrives?

I've gained 25lbs, and I'm at 26 weeks, and I was overweight when I started. My doctor hasn't said anything about it, and I have been eating way healthier this pregnancy than last so I try not to let it bother me! My legs and back are starting to hurt though from carrying all this extra top-heavy weight.

I sure hope my doctor is wrong...2lbs a week for the next 12 weeks seems like a lot doesn't it......some only gain that amount their entire pregnancy....

I'm with you...I gained a lot as well and my doc told me to expect gaining 2 lbs a week from this point ?.......

Oh no don't worry you are not a whale!! :) I can totally relate though. I'm almost 29 weeks and I've gained about 33 pounds. It's just our bodies growing healthy little babies.

30 weeks and was up 22 pounds at my 28 week appointment. I gained 65 my first time around but started this pregnancy 20 pounds heavier. I HATE the scale and hadn't even looked at it until my last appointment. I'm guessing I'll end this one around a 35 pound gain and also dreading summer completely! I went through this same thing almost six years ago too ?

Well maybe your body was just really prepping itself for pregnancy then ??? Hang in there!!! Breastfeeding does wonders for weight loss...

I just had an appt 2 days ago at 27 weeks and was up exactly 30lbs. My doctor got on me a little and said aim for no more than 10 the rest of pregnancy. Oops!

@sweetmelissa yea I started out "overweight" according to the charts. I actually gained 45 lbs in a year BEFORE I got pregnant. Ugh.

I feel you. I'm literally scared to step on the scale. ???. Try not to compare yourself to others though- most of those who have lost weight or not gained any were overweight to begin with as it's not humanely possible to not gain a large amount of weight if you stared out really small since your body must gain enough to support and nourish your baby. Not judging those who started out overweight- just saying there's a reason why some gain 50 and some gain 5- and it's usually because your body does what it needs to. Enjoy the extra goodies for now and we'll get those bodies back soon enough!!! I need to tell myself this too- I HATE seeing the scale rise so much. ???

From 20 weeks to 24 I gained 11 too! I just try to not let it get to me. I did soooo good the first 20 weeks with eating and walking but as soon as I quit my job I started eating 24/7 and sleeping whenever I can!

I'm soooo glad y'all can relate!! I can't stand seeing posts, "I lost 15 lbs and only gained back 5 so far" or something else to that affect.

Also not looking forward to the summer. After birth, I'm gonna be pale and full of cellulite, and maybe stretch marks...wanting to get in a swimsuit will be the LAST thing I wanna do!!! Ugh.

I'm with ya girl!! At my 26 week check up I was up 30lbs. And I feel it too. This 30 pound belly is really weighing me down. Feels like I've got a bunch of bricks in my belly.

I gained 7 lbs in less than 3 weeks!!!! Ahhh!!! If I keep that up...I'll be gaining another 21 lbs by time this baby comes!!!! I guess I shouldn't be too surprised...I'm not being too cautious with what I'm eating.

Нравится Ответить

I'm in the same boat! I kinda had a melt down in the office because In two weeks I've gained like 5 pounds! My doctor a lot is water weight and as long as I'm eating a well rounded diet to not worry. Yea a well rounded diet means lots of cookies right???

I know everyone’s pregnancy is different, but is it normal if you only gained 25 lbs? I’m already at 36 weeks & 4 days. I have not gained any more lbs since my last appointment which was 3 weeks ago.
