Re: Just got on the scale!
I was up 15 lbs at that point. I think with my first I was up about 12 lbs by then.

Re: Just got on the scale!
I gained all my weight in the first half and the really stayed steady.....maybe another pound or two here and there....and this was being on modified best rest. I definitely ate the 2nd half.
You might not gain much later so I wouldn't worry

Re: Just got on the scale!
I gained 20 lbs and I'm only 22 weeks! I was also 5 pounds underweight pre-pregnancy so I guess I kind of gained 15?

Re: Just got on the scale!
My sister gained 35-40 pounds during her pregnancy and lost it all in a little over a month without even trying! I think it's just you're body type. Also, if you're eating well or in some sort of portion control - I think you're okay :) Its just your body transforming for awhile to make room for baby!

Re: Just got on the scale!
I've averaged 1-1.5 pounds a WEEK. I refuse to weigh myself anymore.

Re: Just got on the scale!
I'm up @ least 20 @ 24 weeks. It is scary to see that number on the scale but hopefully it will all be ok!

Re: Just got on the scale!
I had definitely gained more than that by 24 weeks! I think I gained 13 lbs in the first trimester alone.  I've asked the office to stop telling me the number

Re: Just got on the scale!
That doesn't sound bad at all. I am only in my 11th weeks, and I think I have gained about 5 full pounds so far. (and that is with barely eating). Once I have an appetite again, I know I'll be seeing even bigger gains.

Re: Just got on the scale!
I've gained A LOT of weight as well.
I am at the point where I tell myself "it is what it is"
I eat healthy sometimes but also sometimes not-so-healthy.
I was in shape when I got pregnant (very active..ran half marathons & other races) so I am confident I will be able to return to that post-preg.
sometimes you just have to "let go" & realize that you are gonna gain as much weight as your baby needs & although it may be uncomfortable/not what you are used to, it's the way things have to be. it s*cks but Im looking at it as one of the many many many sacrifices I will make for my 
PS- I also stopped looking at the scale when they weigh me (stopped at 24 weeks haha)

I could've written this word for word...down to the we're having and when I asked them to stop telling me the number 
I was also in the best shape of my life shortly before pregnancy because I had just gotten married and it was depressing to see my body do a 180 so fast but I am determined to get back in shape after baby too! 
we can all encourage each other after baby

My coworker has 4 kids and she is very thin. She was 109 when she had the first one and said she went over 200 lbs for each of her pregnancies. That's unbelievable and gives me tons of hope as well

Re: Just got on the scale!
i know its so hard not to worry about it- but just try to not too- its really a waste of time.
i am pregnant for the second time and worried about it as well (because i am just nuts) but i can tell you that i gained 35 pounds with my last pregnancy and i just looked and i was up 17 pounds at the 24 week mark too. I lost all the weight without even trying at the 3 month mark PP. I lost 10 more after that. I am so not the type of person to lose weight for no reason. I usually gain weight when i look at food. i did nurse so maybe that helped.
You will lose it- i promise. Just enjoy eatting the extra calories while you can.Go have a sundae
