How much weight have you gained?

Question

My doctor told me my goal weight gain before today’s appointment (17 weeks) was 6-10 pounds. I’m petite but I wouldn’t have said under weight. I’ve been eating a lot but also sick a lot and I’ve gained 3.8 pounds... baby is healthy but she said to make an extra effort to gain some. 
I’m just curious what others have gained/are trying to gain at this point. This is my third baby and it was easier to gain with the other two bc I wasn’t so sick...

Answer

Almost 18 weeks and I’ve gained 14 lbs. ugh. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I feel like that’s too much but my doctor hasn’t said anything yet.

Answer

18 weeks and I’ve down 25lbs. I’ve had to start eating more carbs and protein to stabilize my weight... but I hate food this pregnancy!

Answer

My doc told me that the pounds you gain before week 20 are the ones you will have trouble losing after baby. He said he suggests to try to keep any weight gain til after then for all moms. I am pretty in shape and he said I only need to gain 15-25 pounds total. I just hit 20 weeks and have only gained like 2 pounds. He was very happy with that!

Answer

20 weeks today and I’m losing weight. I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes so I’ve drastically changed my diet and don’t eat any sugar and only a few carbs (whole wheats). My doctor isn’t concerned at all because I’m not underweight and baby is measuring perfectly. He said he would only be concerned if I dropped a ton of weight quickly, but losing a pound or so a week isn’t bad. Who knew I’d get pregnant and lose weight?! Definitely wasn’t the case for my first baby 😂😂😂

Answer

I’m 20 weeks and between my first three appointments I didn’t gain or lose anything. At my appointment last week I somehow lost 5 pounds. I’m not sure how bc I eat all the time. My husband thinks it’s because we’ve been walking more and I’m pretty good about eating smaller lunches and snacks throughout the day. They said last week though that baby is growing just fine and getting everything he needs 🙂

Answer

18 weeks -4lbs. Didn’t have any nausea or any sickness, but i am at the weight of 8th month of my first pregnancy, so i am overweight and recommended not to gain any weight until 3rd trimester - trying my best - running 4 times a week, walking every day, some yoga, some training and calorie control.

Answer

I’m 20 weeks and 2 days nearly and I’m not a small lady by no means... I’m 5’10 and 184. When the pregnancy began I was like 3-5 pounds lighter but I definitely feel like I’m getting a belly and I have 36DDD boobs. It’s cray but I’m glad I’ve made it this far not gaining too much. Also I’ve only thrown up a handful of times.
