No weight gain?

Question

Hey lovely mamas! 
So I’m 18 + 5 and haven’t gained a pound!! I fluctuate between 220lb/225lb and am 5’5. I know anyone who is heavier (my doctors say obese pregnancy - don’t y’all hate that word?!?!) is considered high risk, so I’ve been trying to eat as healthy as possible, but it still worries me that I haven’t gained anything. I know it’s common to not gain during the 1st trimester, but I’m almost 1/2 done! Baby looks good and they actually moved my EDD up two days. 
Anyone else not gain anything this far along? Is this more common in plus size gals? 
Thanks!!

Answer

I started this pregnancy at 209. I'm due on Sunday and weigh 224

Answer

I started at 220, lost 12 pounds in the first 9 weeks of being pregnant, and still haven’t gained anything, and I’m almost 22 weeks. 
My docs don’t want me to gain any more than 15 pounds at most from this point on though.

Answer

I didn’t gain not even a single pound until I was 28 weeks along...I’m now 35 weeks and I’ve gained close to 15 lbs. baby boy is healthy as can be. I wouldn’t let it worry you the weight gain will come and then you’ll be wondering why you were ever wanting it in the first place! 😂

Answer

I'm at 32 weeks, and I've lost about 20 lbs. Haven't gained anything, not even my weight lost back.

Answer

I lost 5 lbs in the first trimester and am just maintaining now so still down 5lbs. I'm 19 weeks now. I'm not worried. With my first two I lost so much I was just back to starting weight when they were born and it wasn't a big deal. Most people gain the most in the 3rd trimester, but if you don't it just means your body is using fat to support the baby. Good luck!

Answer

Answer

Im 6 weeks and I gained 6lbs in the last two weeks!!! I know it’s just swelling, as I can barely eat and my ankles are huge, but how on earth am I going to stay within 10lbs?! How are you ladies not gaining weight? Consider it a blessing!

Answer

Currently 21+3. I'm 5'10" and started at 270 - now down 4 lbs at 266. My body composition is changing now that I'm eating healthier. My bump is growing nicely, as is my little guy. :)

Answer

I’ve gained 11 pounds and my doctor acted like I hung the moon! I was super worried about weight gain because I started out already overweight, but when I went to my 20 week anatomy scan, she said I had gained exactly what she wanted me to gain. I was super glad at that.
