jaydsmom - 89 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I gained 65 lbs with my daughter (who is now 6). The first 12 weeks I think I gained 15 lbs. My doctor kept saying not to worry, that everyone experiences a different weight gain. When my daughter came, I only lost 13 lbs at the birth. I was completely dejected. Thought I'd lose more. Problem with the large weight gain is losing it after. It took me 3 years. I am pregnant with #2 now, and at 12 weeks I have gained 3 lbs. Don't starve youself, but from experience, be careful about what you eat. Eat 5 or 6 small meals a day. Make them healthy ones. Don't think "well I'm pregnant it's all OK". You are the one who will have to lose it all after. Don't stress and go on a diet!!!! Just pay attention to what you eat.

cababy - 89 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I put on 20 in the first 11 weeks. My doctor wasn't concerned. She told me that many women gain a lot during their first trimester with their first baby. She also said that usually you will start to average out as the pregnancy continues. I was seriously gaining about 5 pounds every 2 weeks. I freaked out and called the doctor thought for sure I was having twins.I am starting to slow down I actually lost 2 pounds this past week. If your doctor is not concerned about your weight gain,then I wouldn't worry about it.

brittany1621 - 89 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Hey, don't worry too much. I am your exact height and weight (before baby) and I have gained the same amount. I use to freak out when I saw some people at 20 and 25 weeks had only gained 3 or 4 pounds and I confronted my doctor with my concerns. He assured me that a lot of women start out too big and are advised to not gain as much weight. If it starts to get to you try replacing just a few of your daily intakes like drinking fat free milk or water instead of soda and juice. Also, don't let yourself get so hungry that you end up eatting fatty food. I keep raisins, almonds, and different things that are quick and yummy. Thus, my weight has really slowed down. Good luck and congrats on your pregnancy!

Carmione - 90 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) 12 lbs so far and it looks like I will get to 15-20. I don't mind at all though. It's all for a good reason!

Baby3OnWay - 90 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I never gained that much. Most I have gained in a pregnancy is 30lbs, I am a small person though and i lose weight in the first trimester and gain it back... I don't count the lost weight when it comes back though. A lot of my friends gained anywhere from 35-60lbs. Your about average as far as i know!

michaela - 90 days ago Rating: 5 (1 votes) In total i gained 50lbs, i had given up smoking too (that's my excuse and i'm sticking to it!!!) Since giving birth i've lost 35lbs, only another 15 to go. Don't worry too much about the weight unless your drs are getting concerned. As long as you stick to a healthy diet then you should be fine. All the best. xxx

firsttimeparent18 - 90 days ago Rating: 5 (1 votes) Hey, i thought i would return the favor of a reply, I bounced up and down with my weight during this pregnancy, at the start they weighed me in at 171, I then lost an amount of weight where i landed at 163.5 then I gained water and baby and shot back up to now 181.8 you never know it depends on your body and what demands it needs to meet for your baby

Holly28 - 90 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I am 25 weeks and have gained 6 pounds... 4 of which I gained in the last few weeks. I was overweight to begin with though and think that I have not gained much because of how much my eating habits and lifestyle have changed. My tummy is huge but the rest of my body has slimmed.
