Too much weight gain?!

Question

Today my doctor told me that I’ve already gained a total of 30 pounds and I’m only 30 weeks. My baby weighed 3.3 pounds according to my ultra sound so it’s not like she’s a huge baby. I do workout. The first two trimesters i will still lofting pretty heavy. It’s this last trimester that I’ve kind of been slacking. I won’t lie i do drink a lot of juice but i don’t feel fat. Should i be concerned. I feel like i should eat nothing but salad and drink water now 😭😭😭

Answer

I’ve gained almost 40 pounds at 33 weeks, it’s mainly water and baby

Answer

You’re fine. I gained 55lbs and my doctor wasn’t concerned. I have a friend that gained 75lbs her last pregnancy and she is skinny now. It’ll come off fast.

Answer

I too have gained about 30 or more pounds and am about to be 31 weeks my doc hasn't said anything so far but she did say at my last appointment that I should try not to gain over 36 pounds. I think sometimes it's just something you can't help I started gaining weight as soon as I got pregnant I was sick for about 5 months give or take and I still was steady gaining weight. I think it's just the way some body's work.

Answer

The concern is that baby gains more weight, which can make their exit tougher. Or the shoulders get too big and get stuck. I think liver functions and stuff comes into play with diabetes. 🤔
*disclaimer-this is what I’ve read on internet searches. Because they told me I’m gaining a little too much weight too and I’m not a big girl by any means. So I was wondering what the big deal was 😅
I’m just trying to decrease my sugar intake from drinks. I like sweet iced tea and lemonade a lot. So 😒 trying to do more water and less of that. It sucks. But only a few more weeks I guess.

Answer

I’ve gained almost 50 🙄 I walk daily eat healthy still eat some crap at night but am just worrying about getting ir off after baby

Answer

You’ll be fine. Toward the end, your weight gain tends to slow. I gained probably close to 50 lbs w my daughter. I think they shouldn’t say anything about your weight. My midwife was nice enough to never say anything. You’re pregnant, eat what you want. Although I’m saying this, I’m 9 weeks pp & I still have like 20 lbs to get back to my prepregnancy weight.
