how much weight have you gained

jamie31

Hey all, I am 10 weeks 5 days pregnant and had another appt yesterday. I have gained 9lbs, and am freaking out a little. The dr didnt say anything about the weight gain though. I am still working out and burn alot of calories, i am still eating at a deficit ( some days its a 1000 calorie deficit!) What was your weight gain at this point? is alot of this water retention???

Weeeeeee sudden jumps!

@karen_thinmint You're so close- it'll be back under any day now. Also you know there's all that water weight at the end that you sweat out post delivery (if no one has mentioned PP sweating, look that up, it's a thing that requires much laundry).

rachelcalsbeek

Hi all! I've been MIA for a while. We moved again (settled for the long term now!), and weighing was stressing me out, so I stopped doing it myself outside of doctor's appointments. As of today, I'm 39+4 and up 34.2 lbs. Not too bad! I am very very ready to not be pregnant anymore.

See you all in the post partum group. Tomorrow is as far as they'll let me go without intervention.

Hello all! Just getting to the point where we think this pregnancy will actually stick. With my first, I started at 173, ended at 213, and then got back to my SW within 6 months post-partum. But then I got pregnant in August, gained weight, lost the baby, but didn't lose the weight. I'm hoping to gain less this time and that I can get back to my ultimate goal weight of 169 or less after the baby arrives.

@karen_thinmint Was there a separate PP group? I've been checking in for your update on the babe!! Hope everything went smoothly for you, but assuming those first couple weeks of sleep deprivation are SPARTA!

hesn92

There is a group called "fit fabulous and postpartum" I just realized. I hope you all join over there when you have your babies

It's pretty inactive...

karen_thinmint

@noel2fit and @hesn92 Yes I'm in the Post Partum Pack group, I was in that one for last round as well. It's pretty dead.

I'll check out Fit Fabulous and Postpartum.... edit: no one's posted since 2018 so I'll be in the PPP group.

noel2fit

@karen_thinmint Congrats on the little one!!! Joined both PP groups for 10 weeks from now (wishful thinking hoping it'll be 8...) They both look a smidge dead, but stick around and maybe ladies from here can liven them up a bit. Maybe there's a water challenge or a stroller jogging challenge or something like that everyone could do together?

karen_thinmint

@noel2fit sounds like a plan. Best of luck. And fingers crossed for 8.

The midwife telling me my baby is huge- measuring 2 weeks ahead- is not motivating me to put on weight for the sake of it! She said I don't need to worry at this point since he's so big and we know it's not possible that his due date is wrong. I'm sure a few holiday pounds will show up!

Hello...where is all the pregnant ladies at??? Doesn’t seem very active at the moment.
Any who i like to join, just so i can track this pregnancy weight! 1st baby i gained 32lbs, 2nd baby 27lbs. I’m really hoping i can keep it under 20lbs this time as my BMI is considered overweight.
As for symptoms...i have little nausea, little exhaustion, sore boobs and lots of bloat.

How did they measure, ultrasound or fundal height? Sometimes those ultrasounds can be way off! It's funny I had the opposite problem, mine was measuring about 2 weeks behind, so I was worried so I kept eating! He ended up being a tiny but still within normal, born 39+6 at 6lbs 15oz, so you never know.

^^ My dr told me that the methods they use to measure how big the baby is are extremely inaccurate, and you're better off to just take a wild guess lol

The midwives are just going off fundal height at this point. My first son always measured a week ahead and was born at 8.5lbs. They said second babies are usually a bit bigger than firsts, but because it went so smoothly it's likely a good thing- I just grow them big, but that's the right size for me. They're just using his size as a gauge for wether or not I should be worried about my weight gain, but I bet they'd tell me not to worry regardless. There's not a ton of time left and I'm clearly not making it to the recommendations.

I'm 24 years old and this is my first baby. Due August 23rd

I gained about 7 lbs between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Oops. I'm not mad though. It's my own doing. I'm guessing that I'll likely lose some or most of that during the first trimester, as my appetite has been crap.
