How much weight did u gain for ur first pregnancy ?

Question

Answer

I am 5 foot and i was 89 lbs when I found out I was pregnant. Not anorexic not bulimic just petite and tiny. I was flat as a board until 20 weeks. I was 116 lbs at delivery day at 41 weeks. My daughter was born at 41 weeks via non induced vaginal delivery.  She was 7 lbs 1 ounce and 19 inches long. She scored a 9.9 out of 10 on her Apgar tests.  She's perfect. I was all belly. Unfortunately,  I went back to 89 lbs within 4 weeks after birth. (I prayed for the weight to stick on me, but no luck. The pic is me the day before I went in labor at 41 weeks.

Answer

Only gained 1 pound! Complete opposite to how my body was pre-pregnancy. Before, I would gain 5 pounds looking at a donut. During pregnancy, I ate a little healthier but still satisfied my cravings; still only 1 pound gained.

Answer

With my first, I gained 100lbs...... no joke.... it was bad. It was a combination of being terrified (I had had a miscarriage and was under the impression at the time that it was something I did, so when we got pregnant with my son I didn't want to move), getting a desk job, and that desk job was at a hospital in the NICU (which made me even more parinoid about my growing baby) alsonthere were always treats in the break room, donuts, cookies, bagels, everything you could want while pregnant just there all the time haha, not to mention I made friends with the cafeteria cook that hooked me up for lunch time. Add all that on top of PCOS problems, hashimotos, and a crazy amount of stress/depletion/ and anxiety....... yup 100 lbs. so terrible. But my son came out totally healthy at one day shy of 40 weeks at 9lbs 3 oz. I worked really hard to loose the weight to be able to try for baby number two, I never quite made it all the way, but 3.5 years and 60lbs later I got a positive test! I'm 26w and so far have gained 30 lbs :(. I've still been going to the gym almost daily during the week, eating pretty well, and staying busy. Honestly I'm just happy to be having another baby so I'm ok with gaining /some/ weight..... but as long as it's not 100 more lbs haha

Answer

18lbs lost 12lbs of it by the time I left the hospital.

Answer

35 lbs. I think that was a bit high for me though...

Answer

I gained about 3 stone 😂 I was 120 and shot up to 154. 5 months later I'm 135, I'm not interested in going back to my prepregnancy weight though, I'll be happy with just losing maybe 5 more pounds.

Answer

I'm 16 weeks today and have only gained 0.5lbs. It's mainly because of morning (all-day) sickness, and the fact that I only want water and pregnant me doesn't want anything sweet or surgary. By the way, I'm 5'6 and weigh 170lbs.

Answer

Nothing! I lost loads of weight during my first pregnancy. Don't be alarmed though - Im obese so it wasn't a big deal. I wasn't dieting in any way but I was making sure I took a half hour walk each day and ate loads of fresh fruit and veggies. And my drs were keeping an eye on me - they were so proud of me for not gaining weight 😉

Answer

Depends on what you consider "a lot" or "a bit"

I'm 6' and 143lbs pre pregnancy. I gained nearly 40 pounds at 179 pounds the week I gave birth (41 weeks). I was basically all baby. By 3 weeks post partum I was 151lbs - 8lbs over my pre pregnancy weight. And by 12 weeks pp I was back to my pre pregnancy weight.

Answer

39 weeks and I've gained about 30 lbs.
