kplum - 839 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I will be 36 weeks on Sat and I have gained 38 lbs. The weight gain has been much faster the past couple of weeks! I am even trying to work out 3 times a week and it's still packing on. Guess it's going to happen no matter what I do!

abbyquiet - 840 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) i gained over 70lbs with my first. but i had gd and wasn't eating properly. if i were you, i'd try to start walking most days of the week, even if you have to work up to it. i wish that was something i had done. maybe stretching too. i weighed 90something lbs with my first and never fully lost most of the weight, only got down to 125 before getting pregnant again and that's a whole year later. i dont think 42lbs is a whole lot, but starting to exercize BEFORE you deliver should help you when you want to start working on losing the weight, plus it should help you with the delivery too. try not to worry about it too much though, because as long as your baby is healthy it should be fine. i'm just saying i wish that was something i had done.
