How much weight has everyone gained so far?

Question

Okay so I finally got a new obgyn because I wasn't too crazy about my last and I'm so excited it's all I've been able to talk about for the last week. But I'm scared she's gonna tell me I'm not gaining weight the way I should. My last doctor told me he wanted to see me gain 5lbs by this month and last time I checked I've only gained 1. I'm worried I won't be able to gain the weight my doctor wants me to. How much weight has everyone else gained by this time?

Answer

I am 20 weeks and gained about 12 pounds - all in the breast and belly. I couldn't believe that by about 16 weeks I had already gone up 2 cup sizes!

Answer

I'm still only about 45kg, but I did lose a lot through hyperemesis I was hospitalised for. I've got a little bump and my boobs are already an E cup! I wouldn't worry as everyone carries differently. Some put on hardly any weight, some carry a lot of water. Big bumps, small bumps..,As long as you're feeling fine and eating I wouldn't worry too much.

Answer

I'm 17.5 weeks and initially lost 8 pounds- gained about 3 back, but still 5 down from my pre-pregnancy weight.  My midwife told me to maintain this weight through second trimester and try to gain about 12 in the third.

Answer

At 8 weeks I was a certain weight (about what I usually am and was in April -- I don't own a scale); at 12 weeks I'd lost 2.5, and I gained .75 when I went back at 16 weeks. Do, a net loss of almost two pounds. The midwives don't seem concerned an I don't think not gaining an issue till later in the second trimester. Hope that helps!

Answer

I'm 18 weeks tomorrow and haven't gained a pound. My doctor is not concerned, he said it's pretty normal sometimes. As long as I'm eating how I should, everything's fine. Baby is growing good. ?

Answer

I'm 19 and a half weeks and am 8lbs lighter so don't panic :)

Answer

Thank you for all the comments, ladies. I definitely feel better now :). And I must say I'm very jealous you've all gotten such big breasts from your pregnancies. Still very much apart of the itty bitty committee! Lol

Answer

I've only put on 2lbs so far (though I'm due a weigh-in this Sunday so who knows if that's changed) and I'm 19 weeks. I've been really worried about it but my midwife and doctor are happy and lots of people say it's normal. Physically, it looks a bit like my arms and legs have melted and it's all gone in my belly. Kinda weird. But I'm sure I'll start gaining soon.

Answer

I'm almost 21 weeks and am down 4lbs. Don't panic :):) I'm getting a bump but losing fat from being sick lol. Baby is all good tho :)

Answer
