Week 13: 12/07: 139.8 (-1.4, +0.2). Seems like I'm just hovering for now. But it should start going up very soon.

I am 4 months and have gained 15 lbs. Dr gave me a friendly kick in the *kitten*. So he wrote me a prescription for a free gym membership, and wants me to get back to eating properly. Looking for more pregnant friends to lean on.

This is my first... and I have to admit I am terrified! Thanks for listening.

Week 14: 12/14: 139.2 (-0.6, -0.4) I was higher the day before and the day after though so I think this might be an artificial low. Only 4 more days until NO MATTER which definition is used, I will be in my second trimester.

Also yay for being in the 2nd trimester no matter which definition is used! Woot woot!

Hi, I started my wt loss journey in May, since then I have lost 40lbs. This week I found out I'M PREGNANT, I have gained a lot of weight on my previous pregnancies but I am hoping not to do that on this one.
Wt goal: gain 15-20lbs
My pre-conception wt 155
Week 2: 11/26 153
Week 3: 12/3 153
Week 4: 12/10 152
Week 5: 12/17 156.6 new scale
Week 6: 12/24 157.8
Total gain so far: +2.8 lbs

Height: 5'3"
Age: 37
4th pregnancy, hopefully 3rd baby
Goal to Gain: 15-20 lbs.
All weight gain is cumulative.
Really hoping to keep weight in check this time. Gained 42.5 with my last baby, 15 lbs in first trimester alone! (eek!)

Starting Weight: 10/14 (conception): 154

Week 7: 11/23: 151.6 (-2.4)
Week 8: 11/30: 153.2 (-0.8)
Week 9: 12/7: 151.8 (-2.2)
Week 10: 12/15: 153.0 (-1.0)
Week 11: 12/22: 153.4 (-0.6)
Week 12: 12/28: 155 (+1.0)

Gaining now! Going to add exercise back in now that I am feeling better and eating normally.

I'm 24 weeks and have gained about 17 pounds. I personally am fine with the weight I've gained, but each time I get on the scale at the doctors office, I cringe because its going up and up. My doctor even showed me a graph of "this is where you are and this is where you should be". I'm like yes I know I'm gaining a bit too fast, the first trimester I just ate carbs, it was the only thing I could keep down and so yes it shows now. But putting stress on a pregnant mom is not cool IMO. If I gain a little too much, then I just have to work harder later. I understand where they are coming from, but I wish they wouldn't push the issue so much.

Last pregnancy I gained nearly 30 pounds by 24 weeks!!! My OB was thankfully cool about it though she suggested that I didn't need quite so many calories. I had been eating 1900-2000 total calories/day and thought that's probably great for many pregnant women it was too much for me.

I dont think you're really too off track though. If you gain a lb / week from here on out you'll still be under 35. Keep in mind many don't gain much the last few weeks..

Wow, big jump this week! I feel like baby had a little growth spurt! Hopefully it will slow back down to 1 lb/week. Averaging 1700-1800 total cals/day so I don't think I'm overeating? Started working out again this week.

Weight has fluctuated a lot this week! Anywhere from 156.6 to 159. I'm 16 weeks tomorrow.

Hi ladies, I'm newish/oldish here. was part of this form when the group first started in 2012 when I was pregnant with my 4 year old, also came back when I was pregnant with my 2 year old. Lo and behold- pregnant with my 4th kid and probably last Haha. Due date is 9-18 so just 6wks along but found out about my pregnancy at 3.wks so this feels like the longest 6weeks ever LOL. I eat fairly healthy. Paleo/whole30 foods. Fell off the wagon during September-December and restarted January 2nd (New Years resolutions ) during the fall out period I had gained 8lbs. I found out about my pregnancy like a week after cleaning up my diet and been steadily losing the extra bloat. I know it will stall once the water weight goes down and then will start gaining again. I'm hoping to keep 20-25lb gain but usually always gain close to 40 so here's to wishful thinking. Enough jabbering I suppose. Hoping to remember to update here weekly like I used to do before with my other 2 kiddos.


Starting Weight Jan.2nd - 132.5
4wks-129.9
5wks-128.5
6wks-will update tomorrow morning, weigh ins are mondays for me

So i'm now 27w3d and have gained 19 pounds. I feel big and I'm not even in my third tri yet. I'm still gaining like a pound a week and don't want to feel like a whale when I'm due. I'm eating about 1800 calories, I'm 5'5" and now 160 pounds. Am I eating too much? I have a doc appt on Friday and know my weight is going to be brought up again.
