I am 23 weeks tomorrow and I also have my appointment where I will get my updated weight. But so far I have gained 1 pound and my doctor is fine with it. I also was not big at all before I got pregnant - I was a size 0/2

Re: at 23 weeks... how much weight did u gain?

at 23 weeks I think I was up 10 or 12 pounds. They say you gain the most of it at the end so I think your fine. Your doc would tell you if you werent gaining enough. Tell those people to mind their biz!

Re: at 23 weeks... how much weight did u gain?

Isn't it funny how everyone thinks they are the know all of everything when they talk to you! I can't even tell you how many times I get a "you should do this or that" opinion. The other day one of the ladies at my job told me she was hoping I wasn't planinng on getting an epidural, its so bad, I'll have problems for years blah blah blah for a good 10 mins and I was like yeeeeeah I don't know about that, I dont want to feel the pain!

At 23 weeks I did not gain anything. I lost a lot of weight in the first trimester because I was so sick so by 23 weeks I was back to 0.

Re: at 23 weeks... how much weight did u gain?

I only gained 16 lbs. my entire pregnancy (1st time). Don't worry...as long as your OB isn't concerned, it shouldn't be an issue. Chat Icon

Re: at 23 weeks... how much weight did u gain?

In the same day I get people asking if I eat enough b/c I am not showing much at 20 weeks and then I get someone "reminding" me that maybe I should slow down since I have 20 weeks left.

You are skinny, you are going to have to gain more to make a comfortable home for baby! I think 13 lbs is perfect! Chat Icon

At 20w I am up 9lbs.

According to this: Weight Gain Calculator I am on the lower end of normal.

I'll be 23 weeks on Saturday and I'm just shy of 10lbs.

Don't worry about what others think. Everyone gains weight differently!

I am 24 weeks and in between appts and I also gained 13 lbs exactly at my last appt (that was 22 weeks).
The Dr and nurse did not seem concerned or say a word.
And I will tell you I am carrying VERY small.
A lot of people don't even know I am pregnant and when they find out how far along I am they nearly faint.

However, I was concerned 13 lbs was TOO much to have gained by my 22 week appointment. I'm also 5 foot 9 so 13 lbs on me does NOT show.

My advice- screw what everyone else says- if you were gaining more they'd say you are gaining too much.
I've learned these past months that opinions are like azzholes- everyone seems to have one! Chat Icon
Just go by what your Dr says and discuss your concerns wit them! Chat Icon

7 pounds at that point and my doctor did say I could/should be gaining more. He wasn't overly concerned though.

Re: at 23 weeks... how much weight did u gain?

I think I was on par with my weeks at that point- I was prob @ 20-22 lbs. at 23 weeks. I gained so much in the 2nd trimester and than it tapered off for the 3rd trimester. My dr. has never said anything to me about my gain. I believe I will hit 40 lbs. by the end. However, I'm 6' so 40 lbs. on me is like 30 lbs. on a shorter/average height girl (at least that's what I like to tell myself LOL).

Re: at 23 weeks... how much weight did u gain?

at my 24 w appt, i was only up 6lbs over my pre-preg weight.

everyone gains differently, so really, don't worry about what people are telling you and try to block them out. the only opinion that matters is that of your doctor!

At 22 weeks I was up 10lbs.... but really 7, because I lost 3lbs my first month of pregnancy.

At 22 weeks last pregnancy I was up 20-something pounds! Don't feel bad!
