Is Anyone who was originally thin before pregnancy not gaining enough weight?

Question

Im 29 weeks and super frustrated cus I eat and eat as much as possible and have only gained 10 lbs. Ultrasounds have shown baby is growing fine but still cant stop worrying. I’ve always been able to eat anything I want without gaining weight but now in pregnancy that blessing seems like a curse.

Answer

I only gained 17lbs my entire first pregnancy and the doctor wasn’t concerned at all. If they haven’t mentioned it, I wouldn’t worry 😊

Answer

I’m in the same position. I’m just about 30 weeks and have only gained 9lbs. My doctor says that your body will give you cues if it needs more calories otherwise you shouldn’t worry. So I’m just eating normally and not stressing about it. There’s also plenty of growing yet to do!

Answer

You say that you eat and eat but you don’t say what you’re eating. If all you’re eating is salad and fruit and veggies then you will fill up from the fiber but gain nothing.
You should be eating a balanced diet with protein, fat, carbs, etc. and aiming for a specific caloric intake for the day that is tailored to your body and how much you want or feel you should gain.
