I am 24 weeks and have gained 12lbs so far. My doc wants to limit my gain to 15-20lbs. I am really close to the lower limit and I will have 16 weeks left! Not sure how I am going to do it but I am going to try.0

Well, Sunday morning I woke up and started having random contractions around 10 a.m. I figured they were Braxton Hicks, as they weren't following a consistent pattern. I went to church, and by the time I got home at 12:45 I knew they weren't just BH! I called my mom to come get my son so my husband and I could go to the hospital and get checked out (and hopefully be told I was in active labor).
Mom showed up around 1:20, we arrive at the hospital at 1:45ish. At 2:32, my daughter was born. Good thing I didn't wait any longer to go in!
I'm going to wait a few days to weigh myself, as I know right now the difference will be extremely minimal. I am still swelling a lot in my legs and ankles (that didn't go away for over a month with my first), and my milk hasn't come in yet. So we'll see! But overall, I'm fairly happy with my pregnancy weight journey this time around! (gained 52 lbs with my first!)
Congratulations!!!

Amazing! Congratulations! I can only hope and dream that I'll have such a quick and easy labour! I hope you and bub are doing well.

12 weeks and 3 days today with 3rd baby and have gained no weight so far. Starting weight 117 @ 5'4. Today I weighed 116.8. I look like I have gained a ton of weight though, my boobs are getting huge really fast this time and so is my stomach. I keep getting red blotchy spots on my face this time and I did not with my 2 boys, maybe a girl this time?0

Ahhhh! Congratulations!!!! That's so exciting0 -
Thanks all! I weighed in this morning at 232 lbs, so down the weight of the baby basically. Not surprised, I remember it taking a couple weeks to start dropping off after my son. Looking forward to seeing how far down it goes before it stalls and I actually have to work at it... LOL0

Per my doctor's scale ...
9 weeks: 128.8
14 weeks: 130.8 (+2)
18 weeks: 132.6 (+1.8)
22 weeks: 136.2 (+3.6)
So I am now at 7.4 lbs gained! Pretty happy with this! The gains have been more consistent on a weekly basis, but slow at the same time.0 -
I weighted at the nurse office 129 at week 10... I was around 124-125 pre-pregnancy so I freaked out a little. BUT she did weight me with my clothes, shoes and at around 3pm while I usually weight myself in the morning
I am at 12.4 weeks now and I weighted 129.2 this morning. So I gained about 4-5 pounds in the first trimester. Does that sound ok? I was overdosing on carbs and not exercising due to feeling bleh/exhauted/sick.
Back to working out and counting calories now0 -

Sounds great! I'm on my third and almost 13 weeks pregnant and I just started seeing gains yesterday, I too have been too tired and sick to workout or eat well so I need to start as well. You are doing great, I did lower carbs last time and I ended up gaining exactly 29 pounds0 -
Thanks for the reassurance! I was worried I was gaining too much too fast. I mean, my doc said I should gain between 25-35 pounds, but I didn't think I'd gain in the first tri.0

Pre pregnancy 109lbs 5'1"
5 weeks 109 lbs
13 weeks 114lbs
Gained about 5-6lbs during my first trimester. Aiming to gain 35lbs. Gained 34lbs with baby #1.
14, almost 15 weeks & weigh 116lbs. So I'm up 7lbs.
16 weeks- 118lbs (+9)
17 weeks- 119lbs (+10lbs)
19 weeks- 119lbs (+10lbs)
No weight gain on my scale. My doctors scale says I gained 18lbs when I went in on Tuesday! I think I'll trust my scale since I've been using it since the beginning. At my doctors office, the scales vary on which room I use & time of day I go.
20 weeks- 120lbs (+11)
21weeks-121lbs (+12)
22 weeks- 122lbs (+13lbs)
I've been very stressed this week so I'm surprised that I didn't gain more! Going to the fair Sunday so next time I weigh in might be a doozy!
24 weeks- 127lbs (+18lbs)
Huge growth spurt + stress of packing for our new house. Need to focus on eating better! I've been shoving junk food down my throat for a few weeks now.

Ugh been avoiding this thread cause of the weight gain spikes. Started counting calories again 9 days ago and it's showing!! Slowing down a bit. Thank goodness. I was beginning to freak out. I'm around 1750-1900 a day. What's everyone else at? I noticed if I am closer to 1900, I start gaining 1-2lbs a week so I keep it more 1750-1800 mark and just eat things that keep me full longer like Greek yogurt, eggs, cheese, occasionally whole wheat sandwiches, and dinner is usually the time I eat big meal so I won't wake up during the night lol
I eat easily over 2,200 calories per day. But I've been gaining a ton. 2-3lbs a week for the past 2 weeks. My goal is to dial back to 2,000.0 -

On the bright side, I haven't really gained anything since 16 weeks because I got my butt in gear.
Good for you! I need to get my butt into gear!0 -
Hello Lovely Mummies. I finally weighed after almost a month of not getting near a scale. Exercise hasn't been great because I had terrible flu for 3 weeks, but finally feeling normal and had a good workout today and managed 3 workouts last week. Relieved I haven't gained a huge amount since last weigh in and am averaging at 0.9 pounds a week it seems. Would love it to be less, but I'll take it.
SW: 133.5
CW: 149.5
+ 16 pds @ 25 weeks
Oh, my belly has grown a LOT in the last couple of weeks. I saw my first stretch marks on my boobs tonight. I am nervous. I managed to get through the first pregancy without them, so I'm a little sad to see them. Maybe it's cause it's a boy. Just hopingmy belly doesn't follow suit. Sigh....
Try cocoa butter, it may help. I slathered that stuff on my first pregnancy & still got a ton of stretch marks. This time around, I don't have any new ones, but the old ones are getting wider0
