I wouldn't worry about it May, I think some doctors aren't happy unless they have you in a panic. 5lbs 13oz is nothing at week 36. Our LO was roughly 5lbs 8oz by week 32.

I had a growth scan last Thursday at week 36, she's coming in at about 7lbs 3oz. I was relieved, i thought they would tell me she was 8lbs something!

She's gone from 97th percentile to 84th percentile. At least she's slowing down I guess ?

I've gained just over 40 and I'm perfectly fine with it! I'm embracing my thunder thighs and double chin! ?

If only y'all could see my pile Easter candy wrappers sitting next to me?

Mr dr has not once mentioned anything about my weight gain. Except, "You gain more in the third trimester."

I'm pretty sure all the weight I've gained hasn't affected the baby, because at 36 weeks, she weighed 5lbs 13oz. I know it can be off by a pound...but at least she's not too big because of it.

I normally gain over forty to sixty pounds per pregnancy, which I don't mind because I've signed up for the weight gain, its part of the process. I'm normally a bit hard on women that try to gain no weight or even lose weight in pregnancy, because it's not a time for dieting. Your baby has nutritional needs for their development.

I weighed myself at home about two weeks ago and got the shock of my life. The hospital weighs me in kilos, so I didn't know what the translation was into stones and pounds. I nearly fell off the scales when I realised I was nearly a stone lighter (14lbs) than BEFORE I got pregnant. The fault lies with gestational diabetes, and the misery of the controlled diet I've had to live on. However, I do know that this is a large baby, and I know she isn't suffering. She's been gaining weight quickly while my body has been losing it. She was 97th percentile and now recently I was told she's 84th percentile, she's a monster like her brother's lol :)

I'm 34 weeks and my doctor sent me to a nutritionist (I do not have gestational diabetes) because they don't want me to have a big baby and I've only gained 33 pounds so far ? and this lady checks what I eat weekly and weighs me weekly ☹️ how did you all get so lucky

50lbs for me also and yes I don't even care...I'm sure I'll miss eating whatever I want after the baby. Let's enjoy this pregnancy ladies cuz we won't have much time left until our prince/princess arrives. ????

Lol @ busted can of biscuits ???

My first I ended at 45 lbs and lost before 4 months.

Same ?? I'm lookin like a busted can of biscuits over here! ???

I'm around 30+ and my legs are chunk a lunks and shorts are a disaster! I have really wide saddlebags so I can't wear maxi skirts. Boo.

I have gained 50 pounds too and I am 37 weeks and 5 days. I felt horrible when the doctor told me on accident. I haven't checked my weight gain since 1st trimester cause I didn't want to know. And at last appt I had a different doc and she slipped and told me. Aw well it is what it is. Hopefully it will come off afterwards.

Same here lol. Whatever. I'm not worried because my body is doing its thing growing a healthy baby. :) if I wasn't pregnant I would totally be freaking out though haha

I'm at 45. I find it more funny than anything bc it really doesn't look like that much and it's all belly. How I'm not falling over is beyond me.

@policewife yea my love handles have stretch marks, and my back needs a bra. But whatevs.

Also gained about 50 pounds. It makes me self conscious to be over 200 pounds, but at the same time I know I can lose it and get back to my prepregnancy weight after he's here and just enjoy the pregnancy.

I'm at 30 Gained. My legs are now like fat tree trunks and got awesome love handles with stretch marks. Gotta love pregnancy. I only gained 20 with or first and never got one stretch mark.

I've gained about 35lbs and don't care one bit! Going to enjoy my last few weeks before I'm on what seems a constant diet. I'll worry about it after the baby comes! I'm sure I'll be plenty busy.

Yea....if it wasn't for the scale...i wouldn't be reminded every week that I'm over 200lbs!!! But oh well lol

I didn't care either love well I did once I got on the scale but I guess it didn't affect me much since I would still eat literally all the time lol but now I'm not hungry at all I'll eat maybe once the rest of the day drink water and I hate water lol m

I've gained 60 and really not worrying about it either lol This is our fourth and every pregnancy this has been my normal weight gain. My husband says when I'm pregnant I stop caring and give baby what baby wants ????
