FTM gaining too much weight??

Question

Hey guys,
I'm a FTM so I'm stressed that I might be gaining too much weight. I started at 125 and I'm now 14w5d, and I weigh 135! I googled it and it said I should have only gained like 5 lbs, but I'm already up 10. Is this an issue??

Answer

Your body will do what it wants sorry you only have so much control during pregnancy. I gained 50 lbs my first and nearly 20 of that was just swelling. I left the hospital 25 lbs lighter and lost the rest of the weight by the time my daughter was 2 
Just eat as best you can, walk frequently, and don’t step on the scale often. It’ll be what it’ll be and you can deal with weight loss afterwards. There’s no right or wrong with weight gain IMO as long as you’re not going to town eating super unhealthy.

Answer

Oh honey you’re fine. I gained 70lbs my first pregnancy. Gained 20 in the first trimester. 
It took about 6 months to lose and I hit three plateaus but I did lose it all. Except the last 5lbs. Never lost that. 
As long as you’re active and not over indulging you will be fine. 
This is my second pregnancy and I’m 13 weeks and have gained 5-7lbs, but I’m way more active with this one then with my first.

Answer

With my first I gained 15 lbs in the first 12 weeks. By then end I had gained 75lbs. My midwives never said a thing.

Answer

Everyone is different. Your doctor would let you know if they were concerned with your weight gain (however even then I thinks it’s BS because again eveyone is different). Sometimes people gain a bunch at one point and then it slows down. Some people don’t gain anything until their third trimester. I wouldn’t worry about it too much at this point.

Answer

Just do your best to watch your weight. In reality everybody and pregnancy is different so you may gain a lot now  and nothing later or a lot during this whole pregnancy. As long as everything is healthy I wouldn't stress. I gained 60lbs with my 1st baby and I'm 18 weeks with #2 and havent gained an ounce.

Answer

Same here I started off at 110 to 114 it fluctuated now I'm 126, so far my doctor doesn't see anything wrong with it plus I feel healthier weight wise. I think if you were gaining too fast your doc would tell you.

Answer

I was up 9.5 lbs at 12+6.
Not sure where I am not at 2.5 weeks later. This is my 4th and I've never gained so much so fast.
