    Age: 37, 5th pregnancy (1 DD)
    Height 5'6"
    SW: 115.8 (3 weeks, 4 days)

    4 weeks: 113 (-2.8)
    5 weeks: 114.2 (-1.6)
    6 weeks: 115.0 (-0.8)
    7 weeks 116.8 (+1.0)
    8 weeks 115.6 (-0.2)

    This may be my last week tracking. Went in for first u/s on Friday at 7 weeks, 3 days, and they couldn't find a heartbeat. I have a follow up appointment this Friday. I don't know why I have such a hard time getting pregnant and keeping babies. All my test come out normal.

    28 yo and 1st pregnancy
    Height: 5'3"
    SW: 115
    Goal: 25-30 lb. gain

    Week 17: 116 (+1)
    Week 18: 117 (+2)
    Week 19: 119.5 (+4.5)
    Week 20: 120 (+5)
    Week 21: 121 (+6)
    Week 22: 123.5 (+8.5)
    Week 23: 124.5 (+9.5)
    Week 24: 124.5 (+9.5)
    Week 25: 125.5 (+10.5)
    Week 26: 126.5 (+11.5)
    Week 27: 126.5 (+11.5)
    Week 28: 128 (+13)
    Week 29: 128.5 (+13.5)
    Week 30: 129 (+14)
    Week 31: 129 (+14)
    Week 32: 129 (+14)
    Week 33: 129.5 (+14.5)
    Week 34: 130 (+15)
    Week 35: 130.5 (+15.5)
    Week 36: 130 (+15, cumulative)

    The doctor said the baby is head down, but there's no action going on yet. (Not that there needs to be. She can stay in as long as she needs to.) I do think she may be starting to drop because I have been absolutely ravenous the last 3 or 4 days (more room in stomach now?). I'm measuring a bit behind, and after feeling around, the doctor thinks I'm having a small baby. Maybe that's why my weight gain has slowed so dramatically? I just hope I'm eating enough to help her bulk up before the big day!

    How's everyone else feeling these days?

    Thank you! It's weird. In the past when I've miscarried, it just happened pretty quickly (within days of finding out the pregnancy wasn't viable). The only difference is that I am on progesterone this time, so I don't know if it's postponing the inevitable. It is hard living with the unknown for another week though.

    Pre pregnant weight- 132.5lbs

    Been going up and down this whole week 157-159. I cut out grains and sugar from my diet 4 weeks ago and what a difference does it make!! Today I cheated and had some crackers, chips and Nutella, but onward I hope to stay committed to clean eating the rest of the time!

    Is that the only change you've made? Are you eating less calories now that you cut out sugar and grains, or are you still eating the same amount with just different foods? Just curious! I would love for my weight gain to slow down! Problem is I am absolutely STARVING every two hours it seems like.

    Hi there! Yes those are the main changes I made. I cut those extra things out but added higher fat and more protein at every meal to make up for my calorie cutback. It seems to be going well, I'm not losing anything which is great! I don't want to lose while pregnant, just wanting to slow things down!! Also about a month ago We also purchased a house with 3 acres that we are remodeling and cleaning up the yard so I'm doing a lot more work with the added activity level. I'm sure those things combined have made an effect. My belly measurements are growing right on track and baby is moving like crazy so everything seems to be growing wonderfully. I'll keep updating this weekly. But I must admit, I did have a 3 days "carb spree" this weekend.

    28 and 2nd pregnancy
    Height: 5'7"
    SW: 154
    Goal: ~25 lb. gain

    Week 18: 164.7 (+10.7)
    Week 19: 164.7 (+0/+10.7)
    Week 20: 164 (-0.7/+10)
    Week 21: 165.25 (+1.25/+11.25)
    Week 22: 167 (+1.75/+13)
    Week 23: 168 (+1/+14)

    Putting on my first whole stone feels scary! I've tried eating better this week but still eating a bit of junk which I need to completely cut out. If I manage to only put on another stone between now and giving birth I'd be really happy but its hard to predict how quickly ill put on weight during the last trimester.

    I appreciate it! My doctor said the same thing, but at 3 weeks, 4 days, my HCG was 298 I think already, so it is not likely. My DH still has hope, but having been through this before multiple times, it is hard for me to be optimistic.

    Pregnancy weight gain is really so individual. All you have to do is read a couple of other posts to see that we all gain different amounts at different times. I've pretty much just decided to dial in my calories and let whatever happens, happen. You're doing great; don't worry about the future or how far you have left to go just yet!

    Thank you I needed a reminder not to get too stressed over it! I just need to get back to putting only healthy foods in me and let nature take its course! X

    31 yo and 1st pregnancy
    Height: 5'7"
    SW: 168
    Goal: ~20 lb. gain

    Week 8: 168.0 (+0)
    Week 9: 167.8 (-0.2/-0.2)
    Week 10: 168.6 (+0.8/+0.6)
    Week 11: 167.4 (-1.2/-0.6)

    Week 15: 169.6 (+0.0/+1.4)
    Week 16: 171.2 (+1.6/+3.2)
    Week 17: 171.0 (-0.2/+3.0)
    Week 18: 171.8 (+0.8/+3.8)
    Week 19: 171.0 (-0.8/+3.0)

    *I was 172.2 yesterday, but I was so thirsty and drank soo much water, not sure if that's why I'm down again. Or because Wednesday night I had Chinese food and it bumped me up.

    I can't wait till our kitchens done and I can finally cook and make my own meals again! I'm sure my sodium intake is crazy now even when I'm aiming for healthier options.
