Is my lack of weight gain healthy? Please read description below first, please!

Question

Brief background: my pre-baby weight was 232 and I'm 6 foot, so that means my bmi was barely overweight. I and 19 weeks today and during my 19 weeks I had gained 4 lbs but by the end of this week I am back down to 232... I feel like I eat a lot even if it's not as healthy as I should and I do not over exercise, just go walking some. Is it healthy that I have not gained any weight and I'm about half way through my pregnancy?

Answer

Sry accidentally voted no. I'm sure you're fine! You already have some on  reserve ;)

Yes it's absolutely fine. As long as baby is growing, no worries!

If your doctor isn't worried, don't sweat it

Answer

I lost 5 pounds I am also 19 weeks also and it's been 2 weeks without vomiting so I have gain 3 pounds since I found out I was pregnant

Answer

I'm 6'2" and have similar stats, maybe weighed a little more pre-pregnancy. I lost 14 lbs at the beginning and have only gained about 4lbs since. Baby is growing and measuring on schedule, so not too worried. Tall women may just grow differently. I'm sure you are doing just fine :)

Answer

I'm 20 weeks and have only gained two pounds you are fine every time is different my other two I gained a lot and ate very little compared to this one I Also have had a sweet tooth which is not me I can't stand my favorite veggies now I love fresh veggies I can't explain why but I'm happy as long as my lil boy is healthy

Answer

My doctor said she herself only gained 4 lbs with her last pregnancy.

Answer

I'm overweight (5'6 and weighed 245) and I've lost about 10 pounds over the past 19 weeks. I eat the same as I used to also. Y doctor said as long as the baby is getting what it needs its ok

Answer

My doc always says it's the bun that matters. Once she's measuring within the timeline we are good to go, big belly small belly, no belly. I was underweight and lost 20 more lbs but baby was doing fine. I'm putting it back on now. You just maintain a healthy diet and you both will be fine :)

Answer

I was 225 pre pregnancy at 5'6" and got down to 202. I'm now at 210 at 22 weeks
