    Almost 34 weeks & another 2lb gain this week! I'm trying to not stress, I think most of this is fluid because I haven't been as great w my water & my ring doesn't fit as well this week. Total 8lbs so far. I'd like to get by a couple weeks without gaining. :-)

    Unfortunately I was heavy enough to start with and have had to work really hard to keep my weight down. I was only about a month into dieting when I discovered I was pregnant and had just lost 8lbs. For the first trimester I was walking 3 to 6 miles 5 days a week, swimming 50 laps (of 25m) a week and doing a half hour of Zumba. Second trimester I gave up the Zumba and wound down the swimming, but am still walking 3 to 6 miles 5 days a week. I probably could have cut down the walking if I'd been eating better, but I have a sweet tooth! My original BMI was about 33 at the start of this year and I've really cut that back, by working off the fat and adding baby weight.. Hopefully, after baby arrives I'll be about 5lbs below my weight at 4 weeks. Then will give myself a break while getting breastfeeding established and will start getting fit again in the new year. Although I'll continue to log my food intake and track any exercise while on the break just to make sure I don't go OTT on the calories and make myself eat healthier, otherwise it wouldn't take two seconds to fall back into bad habits ;)

    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 days

    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.

    Starting weight (wk 10): 251.8
    Wk 16: 259.8
    Wk 17: 254.2

    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.
    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!

    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.

    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!!!

    Height; 5'9"
    Starting: 204.6 (4w) BFP

    5w: 204.6 (0)
    6w: 206.8 (+2.2)
    7w: 205.6 (-1.2)
    8w: 204.8 (-.8)
    9w: 201.6 ( -3.2)
    10w: 202.4 (+0.8)
    Total: (-2.2)

    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)!!!

    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.

    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.
