How much has everyone gained so far?

[lil_lady25]

I know this is the answer that NO woman like to answer ;)  but we are gaining weight for a good reason. I was wondering how much everyone has gained so far. How much did your doctors tell you that they want you to gain? I'm 24 weeks and up about 25 pounds! I cannot believe it as I really dont know where all the weight has gone (besides my belly, butt, boobs, and thighs). I guess I know where its gone.... haha

17 pounds total?!  Lucky!!!!!!

[trh0819]

Well, I am scheduled for delivery in the morning and I've gained 17 pounds total. Hoping I leave the hospital Thursday at my starting weight so I can work towards actually losing bad weight after that. Since I will be able to start walking again and plan to breastfeed, I might drop some extra pounds!

[trh0819]

I lost a pound at 35 weeks, so I'm at 12 now. I'll be 36 weeks on Monday and get weighed again then.

[Majikat]

gained another 3 pounds in a WEEK!!!!!!! I am now at 179..... only 11 more days till induction day wonder how many more I can gain lol.... I started a new diet of doughnuts and cupcakes.... I guess that would be the cause lmao o well

[Majikat]

Lol I gained 60 lb each with my first 2.... Don't let it bug you just concentrate on making a healthy baby :)

[anxiouslywaiting910]

You all make me feel super HUGE lol I have gained 40lbs @36 weeks. I can't wait to get all of this weight off..its hard to carry around.

[Majikat]

im at 173 this week that is a grand total of 36 pounds.... I am looking forward to having my body back!!! I loved being preggo with my first two but this one has bee rough and I just want it to be over

[SunWorshiper_26]

Awe thank you Trh!  You are too sweet!!  You also look fabulous. And soon luckily we will get our bodies back and we can go back to feeling human again :D

[trh0819]

I have may have gained less than you but you look better than just about any pregnant woman I know!  You are carrying your weight really well.

35 pounds at 37 weeks... I think I'm on track to stay under 44 pounds for the pregnancy with only 3 weeks to go.

ah well... I was always going to try and enjoy and not get too worked up about weight gain. No Gestational Diabetes or blood pressure issues, iron & other bloods are fine... so I'm not too concerned!

[SunWorshiper_26]

Trh i am SO jealous of you!!  I'm up 22lbs total i think and i know bc i was at ideal weight prepregnancy that I should gain 25lbs total but still gaining weight is no fun as it makes us all feel like big fat cows! I'm ready to lose this weight and start feeling like a human instead of a beached whale!

[trh0819]

I gained a pound since my last appointment, so I'm at 13 total now and 34 weeks. My boobs grew in the beginning and I went up to a D cup but nothing has changed since. Makes me wonder if something is wrong but OB says not to worry. Granted I don't particularly want them any bigger, but I'd like to think all is well and my body is preparing for breastfeeding.

[Gibletsmom]

I'm 33 weeks and have lost 30+ pounds. Still having horrible morning sickness. I go to the doctor on Wed. to have an ultrasound to make sure baby is growing properly since I'm still losing.

[spiritwolf31]

I am sooo irritated. I gain some and then lose some and am really glad I lost the some cuz with this pregnancy I am 31wks tomorrow and have gained 24lbs!! With my first two sons I gained 24lbs and 26lbs total and lost every bit plus some after delivery. I seem to be doing not so good with this one and I kinda think it is cuz I was lucky without morning sickness from the beginning letting me eat from the start! I just hope this all melts away after delivery cuz I have a feeling I'm gonna be pushing 40-50lbs weight gain by the time this lil man makes his debut!!

[alyssagillstrom]

ugh. my boob size is off the charts. Im in an E cup. WTH. and that is even getting too tight. :\

[LittleRed83]

I have gained 16 pounds. I am 31 weeks today. I'm starting to definatly feel pregnant now these days :) I only show in the belly and my boobs have gotten larger. But that's about it.

[GBen]

Up again...now I'm 160lbs. Up 15lbs at 31.5wks.  After all the Christmas goodies I'm sure I'll put on another 15!!! I can't resist the egg nog...mmmmm. I think I need some now.

[alyssagillstrom]

lil_lady-oh man im starting to get so uncomfortable too! her kicks are just crazy at night time, usually right around 12 30 or 1 am. i cant imagine 2 bodies rolling around. :P

so today i am up to 174.8 today at 31 weeks and 5 days.

i cant wait to be able to just work out..( ..like i'll even DO that LOL, or have the time) but i hope to start a workout routine or at least walk every day after shes born.

trh0819 - if you only knew how envious many of us are!  I'm up about 30 pounds at 32.5 weeks.  And I can't WAIT to start losing it!  I'm so looking forward to running again, and to wearing regular clothes.  I've even decided I'm going to work on being more stylish post-baby.  I'm typically a pretty conservative dresser and don't want to be so boring anymore.

[lil_lady25]

I'm only weighed when I go to doctor appointments and surprisingly I am happy to find out that i've gained weight. As worried as I am about losing this baby weight afterwards im happier to know that im giving my little ones more room to grow in there. Yea I guess I am celebrating your weight gain hehe Keep it up mama!!

[trh0819]

Can't say I've ever had anyone celebrate my weight gain. HA! I know it's good for me and for baby, but for someone who has been conscious of weight for most of a lifetime, it's hard to get excited watching the numbers go up. I stopped weighing myself at home. Once every few weeks is sufficient at this point  :-)

[lil_lady25]

Yayyy trh0819!! I'm happy to hear that your now packing on the pounds. That means that baby is getting big. Dont worry, you will be able to lose the weight quickly once they are here.

[trh0819]

And the scale spoke... I've gained 12 pounds at 30.4 weeks. Feeling really fat and very uncomfortable. My OB is happy with my gain. Wish I were.
