How much weight were you up at 28 weeks?

This entire pregnancy I have been crazy over how little weight I have gained. It is making me crazy at this point b/c I did not gain any weight at my last appointment from the previous one. I also had to go back today, a week later, and still the same weight, using the same scale. I am starting to feel that i am hurting the baby. I eat a lot, at least I think I do and have only gained 10 pounds the entire pregnancy at the 28 week mark. The baby and my stomach are growing but I feel that I should be gaining more. Please let me know what you gained at your 28 week mark! TIA!

Re: How much weight were you up at 28 weeks?

i was up about 25-26 lbs at that point - but jaime, seriously, don't worry. your baby is taking what it needs from you, and your belly is growing fine!

i know tons of people who gained less than 20 lbs the whole time - and you being so petite, that probably has something to do with it.

just think how fast you'll get back into your pre-pregnancy jeans Chat Icon Chat Icon

Honestly, and I never thought I would say this, but I could give a rat's behind about fitting into the jeans after. I just want to make sure the baby is healthy.

J, as long as the doc isn't concerned and baby is growing okay I am sure you are totally fine. I was up 3 lbs at 22 weeks, but I was overweight to start with so doc doesn't want me to gain more than like 20 lbs. I've sure if they had any concern they would let you know. Chat Icon

Re: How much weight were you up at 28 weeks?

Just a thought...could it be that I was between 5 and 7 pounds heavier when I got pregnant than I have ever been in my entire life? Just a thought?

Re: How much weight were you up at 28 weeks?

Well, they say that a woman should gain about 25-30 pounds and you have already gained 10 and still have 3 months to go, which can be the time where most of the pounds are packed on. You may only gain 18-20 pounds for the whole pregnancy. I think that's ok and if your dr. is concerned, he will definitely mention it to you.

At 27 weeks I was up 11 pounds, but now at almost 32 weeks it looks like I am close to 20 pounds so I have a feeling I am going to be a late gainer Chat Icon

Re: How much weight were you up at 28 weeks?

depends how much you weighed before you got pregnant.....

I was heavy, so I'm not supposed to gain that much. I lost 5 during the first trimester, and then gained 11 from week 11-29...... so the net gain for the pregnancy was only 6 lbs....

That's actually pretty much on target for someone like me......

hth!

I am average weight but very petite (normally a size 2-4, I have a slim, athletic build). I started this pregnancy at 128 which is "heavy" for me by almost 5 to 7 pounds. I am now wondering if that is why I am not gaining more, becuase my body already had the fat stores present??? I am also very active and do continue to exercise, which the doctor told me I should still continue to do despite my lack of weight gain.

This is what happened to me... I was gaining a pound per week for 8 straight weeks , then at my 27 week appointment I had gained nothing, and still nothing a week later. Now that I just hit my 3rd trimesterChat Icon , I am wondering if I will pack on the weight or not. I guess only time will tell.

Re: How much weight were you up at 28 weeks?

I gained 16 punds at 17 weeks but did not gain at all in the two weeks between that and my level 2. I was overweight to begin with. Ii said Oh good to the nurse and she said well I don't know if the Dr will think its good. But they didn't say anything. Actually they have never said anything to me about weight at allChat Icon

I ahve read in many of my baby books that the baby takes what it needs. You are exercising and probably eating healthy so I wouldn't worry about it. Maybe take a calcium pill?
