I am 32 weeks pregnant and have been sick the entire time. I`ve been on Zofran forevvvver and its actually been helping me. I`m just curious about my weight gain because I was sick with my first pregnancy and gained over 50lbs. And this time so far Ive barely gained 10. Ive heard that you dont gain as much the second time around, but for real-only 10lbs? It makes me think my baby isnt growing properly. Any advice??

JoannaB - 1169 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I am almost 35 weeks and I've gained about 12-13 lbs...my doc told me that what matters most is that you are measuring properly (I assume your doc is measuring you at each visit?) and that you are growing from one appointment to the next.

I just had my third and my weight gain was ZERO...my baby weighed 7 lbs. and was 2 weeks early.
