What has been your weight gaining "pattern"

Im 10 weeks today, and am down 1lbChat Icon

I have had no M/S whatsoever, and have been eating 3 complete meals/day and snacks in between. I really try to make HEALTHY choices.

With my first I gained 50lbs, but didnt begin gaining until about 16-20weeks...Im really not concerned, but am curious to see what everyone else is like..

Re: What has been your weight gaining "pattern"

With my first, I gained 36 lbs. The Dr. told me that they wanted me closer to 25 this time. I think from running around after DD and from eating the same healthy foods that I feed her, this pregnancy is very different.

At my 20 week, I was up a total of 5 lbs. My last visit, at 28 weeks I was up a total of 17 but I think that some of it was water weight from the pickles I had at lunch and the take out from the night before.

Re: What has been your weight gaining "pattern"

I have been gaining weight pretty consistently throughout the whole pregnancy. It slowed down a little in the second tri though. Now I am really trying to monitor because I am getting up there, and I really don't want to gain more than 30lbs, 35lbs at the most.

Although this has not been easy since my appetite is starting to change.

The weight just keeps coming though-- no matter what I eat.. Chat Icon

If you are eating the same amount of calories that you always eat, then you would lose weight. Your body is burning up more calories daily.

I have just been gaining but honestly, I have been eating sooo much so I should be gaining a lot.

by 22 weeks i hadnt gained a lb..i had really bad MS though...at my 32 week appt yesterday ive officially gained a total of 13 lbs..im hoping not to go over 15 really...which is possible because i think i may be induced at 37 weeks because of health related issues..(in the last 3 weeks ive only gained a lb) so it seems its starting to slow down...i hope anyway lol

I think you are only suppose to gain between 3 - 5 lbs your first trimester.

At 10 weeks I hadn't gained anything. I am now 16.5 weeks and I am up 3 lbs.

Same here. 1st PG no m/s or anything, and I did not gain a pound until 16 weeks. I ate like a horse, and even splurged with junk food every now and again. And even then I did not gain the bulk of my weight until the last month or so (35 lbs total.)

This PG seems to be the same "pattern" although I look way further progressed. At 18 weeks I looked the way I did at 25 weeks last time. So far I only gained 5 lbs, which is on par with last time. This time I had horrible m/s and hardly eat. I have no appetite most days, and really am not eating as well as I could. My dr is not concerned and she has been monitoring my blood work to make sure I am not malnourished b/c of what I tell her I eat, but not because of my weight.

I was down 4 lbs at the end of the first tri. I too was not throwing up (although I did have m/s - it was just nausea) and eating plenty.

They say you gain less with the 2nd and so far that's been true for me - I hope it stays that way through to the end. I also gained a ton with my first.

I think I'm up about 5 lbs total and at first my mid-wife expressed concern but once I had my level II and they found that Baby Bee was measuring perfectly, they haven't said a word since.

I am 29 weeks. I was up 13. But as of today, I lost 2 lbs. So total 11 lbs.

So far, most of my weight gain has been in my 2nd.
