Re: weight, wtf???
It slows down. Eventually there's no more room for food in there.

Re: weight, wtf???
Do not worry. People gain at different rates and at different times of their pregnancy. I promise it all comes off if you want it to.
I gained all my weight in the first half and then only put on a few more pounds the 2nd half. I gained 40 in total and at 15 weeks pp it was all gone. I worked to get it off. You will lose a bunch right after birth but it will all go away.
Just know that you need to gain for the baby an unless your dr says something there is nothing to stress about and do not compare yourself to other preggers. We are all different.

Re: weight, wtf???
It happens to me too. I stay at a very consistent weight and then one day- BAM, a 2-3 pound gain. But then it stays consistent again until the next large gain. 14 weeks and 8 pounds is NOTHING to worry about. you probably just needed those extra pounds. Try not to get upset. I know I still do sometimes, but you are pregnant NOT fat remember that. I am entering my 23rd week today and just jumped from a 10 pound gain to a 12+ pound gain. EEK.

Re: weight, wtf???
Thats fine!
I gained 7 lbs last month! Then this month I gained 1. With my first pregnancy I had a month where I gained 8! My doc is fine with it as long as it evens out.
Last 2 months they say you can gain 1/2 lb a week!

Re: weight, wtf???
I totally agree. I think i slowed down also theres not much room to eat alot but also make nutritious choices. I did great up to about six months then my sweet tooth/carbs kicked in and I found out I had GD so my gain has stalled. Not saying that will happen but eat if you want. you are making a baby!!!

Re: weight, wtf???
If you want to feel better I gained 12 and I'm only 9 1/2 weeks! I'm starving all the time! It's only 9AM and I'm on my second breakfast but if I don't eat I get soooo nauseaous. I'm hoping it slows down!

Re: weight, wtf???
Yay you're in your second trimester!! Don't worry about the weight gain, your body is just preparing for whats ahead. Everyone gains differently- some alot in the beginning, some alot towards the end. I gain the most in the 2nd trimester and slow down at the end. I've actually gained less now at 22 weeks with the twins then I did with my DS at 22 weeks! I think it's just hard to eat alot at this point- my belly has full on taken over!
You want to gain a good amount with twins, its very good for them!

Re: weight, wtf???
Dont stress about it, everyone gains at different times. You'll probably slow down soon. I gained very slowly in the beginning and now I've really been packing it on. 5 lbs. in 2 weeks, then 2 weeks later was another 4 and we'll see on Tuesday what the past 2 weeks has been. My dr.'s not concerned because he looks at the total weight gain overall.

Re: weight, wtf???
i don't own a scale lol
why weigh yourself so much? you're growing a human, and you're going to gain weight. the average i think is between 30-40lbs so stop stressing and just relax. gaining weight is healthy for you and the baby.

It will come off quickly in the beginning!!!! So do nto stress to much about the gain during!
I left the hospital 20lbs lighter. I lost it all by 15 weeks so it is not an unsurmountable task. I know many of the mommies will tell you the same!!!!!

Re: weight, wtf???
I agree with the PP's. Everyone gains at different times. For me I didnt gain that much in the beginning. I started gaining about 1.5-2 lbs a week later, around week 24. I'm hoping it wil slow down now that I'm at week 35
