Too much weight not good during pregnancy ?!

Question

So I’m curious now. I’ve always been petite 5’1 always weighing in around 110-114 tops. So far I’ve put on 31lbs this pregnancy and I’m 28 weeks 2 days (doc told me today that I’m measuring at 29 weeks though) so we’ll see. But second time I’m hearing that I need to slow down with the weight gain I laughed it off the first time because I’ve always been small and return to my normal size after pregnancy (this being my 4th) should I really be worried?! My kids all were born early as well my first 2 at 34weeks and my last at 36 weeks. I’m on progesterone shot to help this one stay in longer but I’m really wondering is this really of any major concern. I think I still look pretty small 🤷🏽‍♀️

Answer

I think you look beautiful...and growing a beautiful blessing...

Answer

I think we gain what we need if were being smart about our eating habits if you’re healthy baby is healthy I wouldn’t worry too much. With my first I gained so much but we were both healthy my sister was the opposite just like you she is smaller. She never gained anything more than 10 pounds. She had her 6th baby last year and doesn’t look like she’s had one baby meanwhile I just had my second almost two weeks ago and I look like it  lol

Answer

You are small and all baby! But I would try to slow down gaining weight. At the same time this could be your normal weight gain. If it is then don’t worry about it. I gained 50 pounds but it went everywhere and i struggled to get back down.

Answer

I’m 34 weeks same size and height as you. I’ve gained about 30 and haven’t been told anything about my weight. My first I only gain about 22-25

Answer

I'm in the same boat as you, only this is my first pregnancy so idk how it will go after. I've always been tall and thin, 5'7" and about 120-125lbs. I've gained 55 lbs this pregnancy and my Dr. Has also told me that I need to slow down on the weight gain. I haven't taken her very seriously because I've never been capable of gaining weight before and so I haven't really worried about it. But I'm also curious!

Answer

I went from 115 to 156 and my doctor doesn’t seemed phased by it. I’m 39 weeks
