22 wks, not gaining much weight

[Trying to conceive]

I am 32 yo, currently 22 wks & 59 inches tall. Current weight is 129.5 lbs, pre-pregnancy weight of 126lbs. I'm 5.5 months pregnant & only gained 3.5 lbs. My belly is huge & breast went from 34D to 36DD, not sure how I didn't gain much weight. My OB/GYN doesn't seem concerned. I did have severe vomiting from week 6-16, but am fine now. Eat pretty normal, when I'm hungry, like 5 small meals instead of 3 large ones. What do you guys think?

I am now 33 wks & have gained 9.6 lbs, belly is pretty huge. 3D ultrasound showed 4.5 lb baby, so I guess everything is ok :)

Don't you just love those ultrasounds! Glad to hear your little girl is doing well in there!

Thanks ladies for your replies :) I had an ultrasound & they said baby looked great, 8-9 in ches & between 10-12 ounces. Amazing! She moves so much! Love being pregnant!

I am 23 w , I started at 136 and now I am at 146 . I lost 5lbs in my first trimister. You must have lost even more weight and hence the total weight gain is very less.

Wow! I'm 22 weeks tomorrow and I've gained 19 lbs already! Looks like we were pretty close in body type too. I was 125 to start and a 34D...not sure what my bra size is now, but they're definitely bigger. But everyone's different...as long as your doctor's not worried, I wouldn't worry either. Just make sure you try to eat a well-balanced diet. I'm sure the nausea had a big impact on your weight up until 16 weeks, and you'll probably start gaining more now that you're over that. Best of luck!
