Less Weight Gain in Third Trimester

Did anyone gain less weight in their third trimester?

I was gaining at least 1 lb a week for my entire second trimester, but now in the last 2-3 weeks, I have only gained maybe 1 lb total. I will be 30 weeks tomorrow and I am up 19-20 lbs.

I actually gained the most in my third trimester during both pregnancies. I think it's normal to have weeks you don't gain that much.

I have gained about the same amount of weight in the third trimester as I did in the second. I have had weeks where I do not gain and I had a few weeks where I gained more than 1 pound.

I gained less my 3rd trimester. I gave birth at 40w3d and gained 21lbs. DS was 8lbs10oz (but he pooped twice before being weighed) and almost 23inches. I gained very little the last few weeks. The last 5 weeks I think I gained maybe 1 lb. I even lost a pound 1 week. And DS was definitely gaining even though I wasn't bc I had growth sonos every 3 weeks due to medical issues and he gained steadily. I had no food aversions and had a healthy appetite so that played no part in my not gaining more.

I have been a pretty consistant fata$$ my whole pregnancy. About a lb a week, sometimes more, but never less.

I gained the most at the end of my 1st and into the 2nd. My weight slowed as I went on
