Have you gained weight during pregnancy ?

Question

For those of you ladies that haven't gained any weight , or for those who are like 30 weeks and have only gained like 10 pounds please tell me how you do it ? 
I can't help but wonder like I don't mean to offend anyone by saying " do you not eat " but do you ladies watch what you eat or what is it that you do ? I'm curious because i'm a little chubby and don't want to gain so much weight during this pregnancy any comments are welcomed and once again I don't mean to offend any of you ladies

Answer

Ok here's the thing- you can only control this to a certain extent. Do not drive yourself crazy over it. Do what you can to eat the right things and to make healthy choices, but at the end of the day you are going to gain the weight you need to. I'm 17 weeks and haven't gained anything (yet ) but I swear I've been eating like a pig...I was also overweight when I got pregnant, so I didn't need to gain anything. Don't stress too much and if you're worried, ask your doctor for advice. :-)

Answer

I gained about 5-6 pounds in 17 weeks. Since I am trying to save up $$, I eat at home almost always. that keeps me eating healthy! But I was almost underweight before I got pregnant and they want me to gain about 30 pounds. You have to gain some weight, or at least most people do, so my advice to you would be to let go for now. Make smart choices but don't forget to indulge every now and then.

Answer

35weeks and have gained 5lbs.  I eat a good amount of food I just make good choices.  I eat wholes foods and try and avoid processed foods as much as possible.  I eat a lot of lean protein, fruits and veggies.  I splurge but only once a week.  I'm also very active because I have two boys 6 and 4.

Answer

I'm almost 27 weeks and have gained 7lbs. I eat healthy and work out. Not saying I never give into cravings, but I'm vegan so even my "unhealthy" would be considered healthy to most. There's really no secret though. Just regular healthy eating and exercise! Good luck!

Answer

With my first I gained 50 lbs total. Now I am 33 weeks and have only gained 20 lbs. I don't really watch what I eat but I do chase a 15 month old around all day. But who cares if you gain more weight your making a human 🐣

Answer

With my first I gained about 60 lbs and now I'm 20 weeks and lost 12 lbs. I know sometimes it's tough to talk about your weight but all you can do is eat healthy and exercise. I was very fit before both pregnancies so I have no problem keeping bad weight off. Just watch your fat and sugary intake , do not drink soda. Drink water as much as you can . While pregnant it is healthy to gain about 25 lbs per pregnancy. Keep that in mind.

Answer

I'm only 17 weeks, but I haven't gained any weight yet. I'm eating on the healthier side, but not watching what I eat. So I know I'm eating MORE than enough through out the day. My dr says I should have gained at least 5 pounds by now 😒 even before I was pregnant I couldn't gain any weight.
