Up 20 lbs already?!

Question

Just got back from the midwife and I’m up 7 this month for a total of 20. That’s all I gained total with my first. 😭 I’m struggling much more the second time around! Ugh. Gotta get back to better eating habits.

Answer

23w and I’ve gained 25lb 🤷‍♀️ I’m normally 130 at 5’7” and I gained 40 ish lbs with my other 2 pregnancies. And lost it all...and then some within about 14 weeks post partum. Granted, I was able to exclusively BF and I’m sure that helped. Try not to stress about it!

I’ve gained just over 20 already and I’m 24 weeks! Honestly makes me feel better to hear the same from others. 😅 My midwife doesn’t seem concerned....yet.....😬

Answer

I’ve gained 6 so far (23 weeks), I did lose weight in the first trimester because of nausea, buuuut I’m dreading my third trimester because it’s always when I gain the most lol. I want to eat everything lol.

Answer

Lots of ladies gain in spurts in the second trimester and then level off in the third. Don’t worry too much about it. I know it sucks when you have something else in your mind, but it’s just a number and it’s normal.

Answer

Same here! I’ve put on about 21 pounds at 24 weeks. My doctor wasn’t super concerned. She suggested I try eating differently, but I’m probably retaining a lot of water because as a driver I don’t move around a lot.
