I lost weight until about week 19 of my pregnancy. Like you I was over 200lbs to start with. After then I put back on everything I'd lost by the time I got to about 35 weeks, but it is mostly baby weight rather than fat this time. I will finish this pregnancy only about 5lbs heavier than I started out, so am hoping after delivery I'll be about 5lbs lighter than I was at 4 weeks. I ate at maintenance throughout this pregnancy, eating more when I felt I needed it and I mostly ate back my exercise calories too. I put my weight loss down to exercise and refusing to slow down much this whole pregnancy. I walk a few miles everyday and swim when I can, it doesn't have to be all running and workouts.I feel a bit better knowing some of you lost weight during the pregnancy. I guess I'm having first time mommy issues. I cut out gluten since sunday and I went down 5lbs and haven't needed to 'go' in the middle of the night. Flipped me out at first bc I thought something was wrong, but I'm starting to think maybe losing that bloat has helped ease the pressure on my bladder? I even ate horrible (HORRIBLE) yesterday and I still went down! Upped my calories from maintenance to 200 calories more per day.
You're also at the stage where baby 'pops' out of the pelvis and off your bladder and you'll find you have a bigger baby bump Not needing to get up in the middle of the night doesn't last long though so enjoy a full nights sleep while you can get it! Good luck! 0 -
Don't freak out! It could definitely be water weight or maybe a backlog of food in your system. It's normal to fluctuate by up to 5lbs up and down without really gaining weight. Another reason to only weigh on the same day each week and not worry about what the scales say too much. You really have very little control over weight gain during pregnancy anyway and we can only do our best.Wow so I posted that I weighed 119.4 a few days ago and I all of the sudden jumped up to 122! What the hell happened? Is this water weight because I'm totally freaking out right now. That's almost 3 pounds in about 3 days0 -

With my first pregnancy I had gained 11lbs by week 26 and then I found out I GD. I started following the diet about week 30 and lost 9lbs over the next 3 weeks. At delivery I was 1lb up from pre-pregnancy weight and after delivery I was down 15. I was overweight to begin with so my doctor wasn't really concerned. Right now I am just eating what I can to make the naseau go away (mostly carbs), but I've lost a little so once I feel better and I can start running again and eating normal I hope to keep the gain to a minimum. Best of luck. There is only so much you can control and everyone seems to be doing really well so far!!!0 -

Still feeling pretty yucky. My grandma passed away last week and we had some really long days/nights. I have no energy to do anything and carbs and carbonated beverages are really the only thing that seems to help settle my stomach a little. It only lasts for a few minutes, but I guess it's better than nothing. Hoping this phase passes soon. I had the naseau all day last pregnancy from weeks 6-16.
I couldn't imagine having it the whole time (I totally feel for the ones that do)!!! 0 -

Went to my midwife today & am up 7 pounds in 2 weeks! She's not worried because I had only gained 5 before that & I'm almost 35 weeks. It's a huge hit for me tho. So I'm up 12 pounds total right before turning 35 weeks.0

At this point you're probably starting to retain water, even if you're not noticing it yet and baby is starting to lay down fat stores, so I wouldn't worry.Went to my midwife today & am up 7 pounds in 2 weeks! She's not worried because I had only gained 5 before that & I'm almost 35 weeks. It's a huge hit for me tho. So I'm up 12 pounds total right before turning 35 weeks.0 -
With my first child, I lost 30lbs, then gained 60lbs. (Long story, short: terrible morning sickness, then anti nausea medication and IV lines with dextrose water for forced weight gain, which worked way too well.)
I have every intention of having thing go very differently this time around. Granted I am only 6 weeks now, but as of this morning I am up 0.8lbs. Hoping to keep the weight gain very very slow and steady. No crazy weight gain but I don't want to lose again either.0 -
Kcasey155: you have done sooooo well this pregnancy! I think you are so inspiring! Can't wait for you to join us over at the post-partum pack!0

This is my 3rd pregnancy, gained about 32 with each of my kids. Unfortunately I still had about 15lbs left from them both when I got pregnant. (My kids are 21 months, 7 months, and I just started 2nd tri.)
6 weeks: 200
7 weeks: 199.8
8 weeks: 197.6
9 weeks: 197.4
10 weeks: 197

12 weeks: 196
13 weeks: 195
Pretty proud of myself so far! I'm not really showing yet, which is amazing because even with my 1st pregnancy I was showing so much so fast, they kept checking for twins. Baby is growing well, so my dr said the weight loss is perfectly fine.0 -

Weight update! Starting weight 115 @ 5'4. Now at 19 weeks I weigh 121.4 so about 6 1/2 pounds gained. Been picking up my walking about 3 miles a day 5 days a week. Its getting cold out so my workouts are going from morning to afternoon which makes it hard to stay motivated as I'm a morning exerciser. How is everyone else doing with their weight gain? Its been a struggle to stay consistent since I have crohn's disease. I'll be getting induced at 38 weeks because of it so I am officially half way done0

Still not feeling great and not eating great either. Hoping this goes away soon!! My next appt is on the 29th. Should be able to hear a heartbeat. Can't wait!!!0 -
Finally my scale seems to be taking a break! I'll be 36 weeks Sunday & my total gain is 9 pounds! I'm pretty happy w that & wouldn't mind a little more but thankful the scale is backing off. I was gaining 2-4 pounds a week for a second. I'm 3 pounds lighter than I was starting the week & happy! Still drinking plenty of water but have definitely noticed swelling. W my last pregnancy I started gaining big numbers the last few weeks. Would love to finish this pregnancy under a 20 pound gain.:-)0

Possibly my last weigh in, yay! Waist measurement still fluctuating between 118 and 122cm, depending which position baby is in. Had an indulgent day yesterday - pizza, chocolate, cake and custard, sweets, etc. Yum. Probably slacked on my diet a couple of other days this week too
Hopefully baby will arrive soon as I'm sooooo ready to meet her, as are her four big brothers. Our household is bursting with excitement! 0 -
Gained 3.8kg at 18 weeks not bad so far on for the recommended amount so Im happy with that!0

38w 5d and so far I've gained 30lbs which is more than I would've liked - I've constantly craved sweet stuff though so it's hardly suprising I've gained a little more than I did during my 1st pregnancy (28lbs although he was born at 36 weeks).
I've found the weigh gain a lot harder to deal with this time as after our son was born I lost 53lbs and had just started feeling happier and more confident with my body when I got pregnant again. I think because I was smaller when I got pregnant this time I feel much bigger.
Can't wait to get back on track again!0 -

So inspirational! I'm hoping to keep the gain to a minimum. I gained 23 lbs with my son, I was already 22 lbs overweight (157 to start)). Lost 10 lbs between pregnancies (147 to start), gained 46 lbs with my daughter. UGH. I had gestational diabetes with my son, thinking I would have it again ate everything I could before the GD test with my daughter, I didn't have GD, so I kept eating. I will NOT do that this time. I lost another 12 lbs between them. My son is now almost 2.5, and my daughter is almost 10 months, so this has been a crazy 3 years for me.

So far I'm pleased, though I wish I had lost a little weight during morning sickness time, but I can't complain because it was short lived like the last two pregnancies. Would love to only gain 20-25 (I was told to gain 20 would be enough, but I can gain up to 35 this time). I refuse to gain more than necessary this time.0 -
