I gained 60 lbs. 205 the day I had my son. Thank goodness I am 5'10 because I did not look like I weighed 205 but my wide *kitten* said otherwise.
I'm 5'9" and was big as a house. See?
I think you look absolutely stunning!
AweThanks darlin. I could hardly walk my pelvis hurt so dam* bad *LOL* I hated being pregnant.

I gained 20-25 kilos in all my pregnancies... in pounds that would be 44-55lb - totally worth it. however with my first 2 the weight fell right off without me trying. After #3 however, not so much. There was 6kg (13lb) that i couldnt shed till I started with this website only a month ago - I have only 1.9kg (about 4lb) to go! My baby is 18months, so I had plenty of time before to lose the weight but it wasnt happening without effort lol0

30lbs with DD (she was 7lbs 4oz)
32lbs with DS (he was 6lbs 15oz)
I ended up weighing 140lbs at the end of both pregnancies. I lost weight really fast after DD and went under my pre-pregnancy weight. After DS, the weight took longer to come off, but I got back to my pre-1st pregnancy weight.0 -
Pre-preggers: 95 lbs
Day of delivery: 125 lbs
Gained: 30 lbs
Daughter: 6 lbs 9 oz
I lost 20 lbs very quickly after she was born. The next 10 lbs came off slowly as I BF and got back in the gym, etc.
I ate healthy and clean and was in the gym literally the day before I delivered. I managed to have a nearly med free delivery and attribute a huge part of that to being active!0 -
55lb with both kids. Ate everything in site and loved every minute of it!0

I think I gained about 60 pounds. I was doing good until about 3 weeks before I gave birth when I stopped teaching my step classes. I'm 5'3" and started turning my back to the scale at 195, but I now I ended up well over 200. I lived on pj&j's, milk, and twizzlers.
Milk was my downfall!!!! I drank about 4-5 gallons of skim a week. My weight was going up, up, up. One month I gained 10 pounds and as I am sitting on the table waiting for my dr to come in CRYING, I hear her pick up my chart, say "Holy *kitten*" throw open the door and ask me what in the hell I am doing!! While I am crying on the table my husband starts asking her how much milk is too much. She looked at me and them him and asked what he meant. He went on to explain how much I was drinking and she very quickly told me to STOP because that was WAY too much! Once we figured that out my weight gain became "normal" but at that point it was too late.
7 lb 10 oz, 22 1/2 in long0 -
I lost 50 with my first and 30 with my second. They were both healthy babies. I think heavy people tend to lose when they're pregnant. Of course, all of that came right back on :sad:0

My doctor told me I should gain 30-35 lbs. So, I gained 35 lbs. All but 14 were gone when we left the hospital. Now I'm 18 lbs over my highest pregnancy weight--and my kid is in college. Guess it's time to lose the baby weight, along with the rest of it.0

36 pounds both times and my doctors said I gained too much both times.0

I gained back 23 of the 48 I had lost before getting pregnant...I ate at least 3 BoBerry biscuits every time I passed a Bojangles and I got two GIANT pickles EVERY day from a local Sub shop...My son's first nickname was Boberry. I really liked Boberry biscuits!0
