How much have you gained?

[melody330]

I'm 20 weeks and at my appointment I was up one lb from where I started. I'm heavy to begin with, so I'm hoping to keep the weight gain around 10 lbs

[Ray]

Update: 21 weeks and +13lbs lol

[those3words]

0 according to the ob. But I lost a lot of weight in 1st tri...so really-6 but I was down to -12 at one point. I put on 6 lbs between weeks 16 and 19.

[mrss44]

Only about 2 pounds from the weight I was when I found out. But I lost about 8 in the beginning so I guess technically 10 since I gained the 8 lbs back then 2 additional.

[TheTuna15]

I'm 20 on the dot. I'm up 8lbs right now. After a sandwich, because I eat sandwiches at 10am now.

[cabbagecabbage]

Reviving this thread because I feel STARVING all the time. At 28 weeks I was up 16 pounds. My belly is huge and growing and I'm fascinated but dreading the scale next week.

[tikoberry99]

I've gained 35 and im at 33 weeks and honestly I don't give a fuck. I'm growing a baby and eating the best I can and I'll deal with the weight gain later it's just not a priority. My parents are constantly asking how much weight I've gained and if I'm exercising and my response is always the same...."I'm growing a human so of course I've gained weight and walking the dogs and cleaning the house is enough exercise for me thanks."

Lol almost 33 weeks now and I'm up 35lbs. So much for the 25 I was hoping for around 20 weeks lol

I did the same thing, ha!

I think I am up between 30-35 lbs. I try not to think about it because it does get to me. I've never been over a certain weight my entire life, and have been generally on the thinner side, so it's been difficult for me. That sounds like a braigplaint and I don't mean it to be. But my doctor isn't worried so I try not to be either.

I thought I would be able to stay under 35 by the end bc I didn't start gaining until 16 weeks, but the past 2 months baby has grown a ton! It's my first so I'm laid back about the whole thing...if i want a muffin im eating a muffin, etc...I'm more concerned about wrinkles then weight gain in general. Though my 20 yr high school reunion is in 3 yrs so that's when I'll get my shit together weight wise lol!

[ellebelle]

I'm 32 weeks have gained about 28-29 pounds so far. With DD I gained a pound a week the last month so I know I'm going to be up between 35-40 lbs from pre pregnancy weight. I'm not going to stress about it, my doctor isn't worried so no need for me to be.

[lostinfaith225]

I the one you all hate.

I'm 33 weeks and from my starting weight, I am up maybe 3 or 4 lbs.

I lost 10 lbs in the first trimester. Iv fluids helped me gain that back.

But, baby girl is on track per my growth scan last week.

[cavewmn]

28-32 pounds and that is where it will stay. I'm not suppose to gain and I am not suppose to lose any. So in some ways it is good I have GD and other ways it is really annoying. lol

I will deal with the weight later on after I deal with a few health issues. PCOS and Hypersomnia mainly.

[tootsie]

I'm up 26 lbs at 32 weeks. I figure that's like, 4 lbs of baby, then another 4 of placenta and fluid... right? And then a couple lbs in my knockers. So really I've barely gained anything!

I am actually surprised at how little I care this time around. I was super self-conscious and miserable about weight gain with my first pregnancy, and this time I'm sitting here plowing through a bag of laffy taffy, looking forward to my afternoon snack. I'M GROWING A BABY DAMMIT.

[littlesthobo]

I'm up 25 (32 weeks tomorrow). I was actually surprised at the OB office that I only went up one pound in two weeks. I have not been watching what I eat at all.

I'm not concerned about weight gain right now, but I will definitely get back to my healthy eating habits once baby arrives so that I don't struggle to lose the weight like I did after DS.

[housecarder]

I'm actually down 7 lbs from my start weight. But I was waaaay over weight. I'm still huge.

I snapped at H last night while shopping. I'm not worried about being big, but he is constantly commenting on it, and was doing so very loudly in the store. He then started to say something about my belly crossing the aisles before the rest of me and I told him to just stop. He got all all butt hurt but I don't care.

[harlowjune1984]

I am almost 32 weeks and am up 29 pounds. Part of me is like "29 pounds?! Holy shitballs!" since I am only suppose to gain between 10-15 pounds according to the bullshit pregnancy weight gain chart. But I am eating healthy, watching my calories, exercising a couple of times a week, etc. My first pregnancy, I gained 70+ pounds by the end, so I think that 29 pounds at 32 weeks is pretty dang good! Plus, with both pregnancies, I retained a lot of water, so who knows how much of this pregnancy is actual weight, and how much of it is water just sitting there......

[mcktymck]

I'm 32 weeks and as of my checkup today am up 27 lbs. 14 of those were gained from 24-28 weeks haha, I indulged a little too frequently! I'm hoping the gain slows down for the remainder of the pregnancy but my appetite is still going full force so we'll see...

[beebe918]

I'm 36 weeks and am up 18 pounds. I gained 35 last time so I'm impressed with myself this time.

[glaze]

At my 34 week checkup I was up 30 pounds. I hadn't gained any in the two weeks prior so I'm hoping not to gain much more but I'm thinking I'll end up around 35 pounds. More than I wanted but still not too shabby.

[rungirlrun]

I'm 31 weeks and up about 20. I am happy with how I look, but again I can't help but compare myself to my last pregnancy where I gained 20 pounds total at 41 weeks, and I started out the same size. I have some body image issues going back to my adolescence so it's hard for me to see the numbers on the scale. But no one else is concerned except for me so I'm trying my best to chill.

I've struggled with the same issues since I was young as well. When I had my 28 week checkup and saw I had gained so much in such a short amount of time, I went home and cried I was so upset with myself. But you are absolutely right, as long as the doctor is okay with it and thinks it's fine, then we need to let it go and not stress so much over it! And fwiw, I think you look great!

[melody330]

I'm 31 weeks and up about 15. I was overweight to begin with so I'm hoping not to gain too much more. My goal was under 20 but I think I'll go a little over that. Currently I weigh what I did went I delivered DS. Not happy about that since I have 9 weeks left, but it is what it is

[sarcaztic10]

I am 31 weeks and I still don't know how much I have gained. My OB says I am fine and hasn't mentioned any concerns so I don't care to know. I assume it's around 20 lbs but I couldn't put a real estimate on it since I haven't looked at the scale at all.

[prvc678]

31 weeks and up 29lbs. The weight I'm at now is the same weight I was when I delivered DD. Zero fucks given.

This was me with DS1, I lost 11 lbs in the first few months and then gained that 11 back plus 8 lbs. L ended up weighing 8 lbs 6 oz so between loosing him and the placenta I actually walked out of the birth center weighing slightly less than my pre pregnancy weight. Loosing those 11 lbs was miserable so I was just happy L got what he needed by the end.

That was me with ds. I lost 10 lbs in the first trimester and gained it back over the course of the pregnancy. He was 6 lbs 13 oz.

After delivery, I was down 20 lbs from pre pregnancy weight, but I hemorrhaged. In the end, down 10 lbs from pre pregnancy weight.

[ginabini]

At my 32 week appointment 2 weeks ago I had gained 25 on the dot. Our scale at home is very finicky so I try to avoid it. I'm definitely struggling a little bit with the number but it will totally be worth it in the end!

[those3words]

32 weeks and about 10 lbs from my starting weight. I lost 12 lbs or so in 1st tri - So, since week 14 or so I've gained over 20 lbs.
