@BBeccaJean you are doing great!!

Thanks ladies--you all have been doing very well too! I just need to keep remembering that healthy baby is #1 priority. A little extra fat never hurt anyone. lol.

I suck:

33 weeks, 25 pounds. BUT still will come under my heaviest weight when I started here on MFP so whoo hooo!

That's great!! Usually weight loss slows down a lot in the last month (at least it did for me). I hit 30lb gain at 34 weeks. Which was ok with me since that meant I was on track for 35lb gain. 2 weeks later at my Dr's appt I had lost 3lbs, and that loss has held now for 3 weeks. Unless the expected healthy weight gain has changed (unbeknownst to me), or your Dr has told you otherwise 25-35lbs is still the healthy/expected gain.

Starting weight 125lb, I'm 5'6" and this is my fourth baby

16 weeks pregnant: 1lb gained
18 weeks pregnant: 2lb gained
19 weeks pregnant 2.5lb gained
20 weeks pregnant 3.5lb gained
21 weeks pregnant 5lb gained
22 weeks pregnant 7lb gained
23 weeks pregnant 9 lb gained
24 weeks pregnant 9 lb gained
25 weeks pregnant 10 lb gained
26 weeks pregnant 12 lb gained
27 weeks pregnant 13 lb gained
28 weeks pregnant 14 lb gained
29 weeks pregnant 15 lb gained

Chugging along.. I can't believe there's 11 weeks left. I still don't compensate for my bump and walk into walls etc lol just forgetting I'm pregnant sometimes. This is my best pregnancy ever, I just have a bit of heartburn and tiredness sometimes but no horrible backache.. I love my pregnancy support belt because a couple of days after I started wearing it the pain went away

Oh, last time I was pregnant I lost 15lb at the delivery, so I'm guessing all the rest that I'm gaining will be fat storage for breastfeeding. I hope I don't gain too much

Whoa - I'm behind with posting my check-ins, so I'm going to condense my recap:

My doctor wanted my to only gain 5 pounds by 20 weeks. I went over by 1.8 pounds. I guess that's not too bad!

Why did your doctor only want you to gain 5lbs by week 20 when you were 'average' size to begin?????

Up 3 pounds over 2 weeks, which is pretty good considering I ate pretty much everything I could get my hands on while away. Time to buckle down and hang in there for 9ish more weeks.

After a week of vacation I am nervous to step on the scale! Maybe this weekend I'll get up the nerve . . .

Meh.:blushing: I'm really going to make sure I use my fitbit and eat well for the remainder. I really only wanted to gain 20-25lbs.

Tuesday's ultrasound revealed Baby is Girl #2.

36 weeks, up 22lbs.

I'm 5'3", started at 115, now 137. My optimistic goal was 140 at 40 weeks. I will probably go over, but I'm very fine with that. My workouts are pitiful, but I'm unwilling to push myself over a few pounds. I ended my last 2 pregnancies in the 160s, so this is a vast improvement for me. I got Ripped in 30 for my birthday this week- can't wait to start it in August!

You're doing great! Perfect gain. Sounds like you know exactly what to do after baby comes to shed any weight, so it'll be off in no time.
