    39 + 4 and I'm hoping I have just weighed in for the last time total of 10.3kg had a BIG gain last week but I have been hungry so I'm hoping it's my body gearing up for labour !

    37 week check in this week and I was -1lb. Total gain so far 19lbs. Starting weight on my scale at home 135 (140 at the dr). 154 on my scale at home now and 159 at the dr. I really hate the doctors scale! Dilated 1-2 and he said my cervix were thinning so hopefully baby will be here soon! Still exercising the same as I've always been before and throughout my pregnancy, except for running.

    Lord Jesus, I pray you get that baby out safely! It's time! Amen!

    Baby #5
    5'4"
    Starting weight: 136lbs
    37 weeks: 156lbs

    Pelvis has officially had it, so I can only walk to and from school (five-ten minutes each way). Did my usual block walk twice this week and ended up unable to move, even roll over in bed without assistance, for the rest of the day/night. Here's hoping this baby doesn't come late as three weeks of this level of inactivity will do my head in as it is!

    Week 4 - 135
    Week 6 - 134.4
    Week 8 - 135.0
    Week 10 - 135.2
    Week 12 - 137.2
    Week 14 - 136.0
    Week 16 – 139.8
    Week 18 – 141.4
    Week 20 – 144.0
    Week 22 – 146.4
    Week 24 – 149.4
    Week 26 – 149.2
    Week 28 – 150.2
    Week 30 – 153.6
    Week 32 – 152.2

    According to the OB scale this morning I've actually gained 18 lbs (had a ton of salt yesterday and gained a pound since I weighed yesterday! So today I was 153.2)

    I bought a FitBit a week or two ago and it has been challenging me to take the kids out on walks more so I figure that's the weight loss/maintenance. I am not a very active person the bigger I get. I realized some days I don't even get 2,500 steps in :( So I've been doing more like 5,000 steps. It's been beautiful here! It's 80 degrees in CA, but the rain picks back up tomorrow fort he next week or two, so I don't know what I'm going to do! It will drive both me and the kids (2.5 y/o and 14 month old) crazy staying inside when we're so used to going for at least a daily walk now!

    Hoping the next 8+ weeks (I usually go overdue) I only gain another 4-7 lbs (4 lbs would be prepregnancy of my son weight but 7 lbs would make 25 total- my original goal. I was told I could gain 20-35, so I'm right on!)

    Only to the halfway point but it is definitely interesting to see how everyone is so different in their gains!

    I lost 40 before pregnancy so I am just trying to stay healthy and keep the gains down so I don't undo everything! I also switched to maintenance when I found out I was pregnant which I am sure didn't help with the gain right off the bat.

    Still not showing! Just feeling like I ate too much candy :laugh:

    I seem to keep gaining and losing the same pounds each week. I'm finding this pg to be a little painful compared to my first. Is it because everything has already stretched once? I haven't gained much of anything, but I feel like I've gained 50lbs. I was able to get out and walk for much of my first pg, but we haven't really had the best winter here and spring isn't looking much better at this point. I wonder if it's the lack of exercise this time around. Hoping it warms up for April!!! I need to get moving. Great job everyone!!

    Curious to see if anyone else has confusion as to what their start weight should be.

    My prepregnancy weight is 198
    My doctor has my prepregnancy weight as 184
    My lowest pregnancy weight is 181

    I started at 198. I lost 17lbs due to morning sickness and didn't start gaining again until about 16 weeks. Doctor has my start weight at 184 because that is the first time he weighed me in my pregnancy.

    I am currently 207.
    So, by prepregnancy - I have gained 9lbs
    By doctor's chart - I have gained 23 lbs
    By lowest weight - I have gained 26lbs

    I want to tell myself I have only gained 9lbs and the doctor says the weight gained back from weight loss is my body's instinct to replace what it lost (which is why I guess I gained 16lbs of the 17 lost right back almost instantly.)
    But, if I have technically gained 26lbs then I am gaining too much.

    Opinions?

    tiggerhammon - I would go by your pp weight. That is what I have been using all along. Most people don't see their provider before 8 weeks and for most morning sickness has already started. Hope that help. I think you are doing fine!!

    kossman8807 - Awesome job on your weight gain so far!!!

    mycrazy8splus - Wow!! You are doing so well with your postpartum weight loss! I'm impressed!!!

    You lost those 17 pounds rather rapidly and my guess is in line with your doctor's. Technically you've only gained 9 pounds according to the way I've always understood pregnancy weight gain--doctors always seem to go by pre-pregnancy weight, not lowest weight achieved during pregnancy.

    I lost 17lbs very quickly and gained back 16 of that super quickly too. By 20 weeks, I was almost back to prepregnancy.

    another quick check in
    35 weeks tomorrow and as of yesterday i had gained a total of 18lbs

    5ft4 starting weight 121lbs
    current weight 139lbs

    I am fine with this - id like to think i wont gain MUCH more in the next 5 weeks but based on the norm i should be looking at about 5lbs so 23lbs total gain which is around average i believe?
