Weight Gain - whats normal?

[Vicky_Gazerimmer]

I have a question for all you ladies out there. I am 23 weeks now and I weighed myself for the first time since I was 8 weeks and I have gained just over half a stone. Does that sound about right? What sort of gain has everyone else had?

thanks ladies xx

I didn't gain anything till around 20 weeks then i gained half a stone and stayed that weight till about 30 weeks and it shot up to 16lb. well that was before christmas!

I haven't gained anything but then I haven't stopped puking so not that suprising.

When i saw the obsetrician I asked him about my lack of weight gain he said my weight had no relevance to the weight of the baby and thats why I wasn't going to be weighed.

so i guess don't worry about it too much

at 25 weeks ive put on 5 pound but all pregnancies are different last time at this stage i had put on about 2 stone xxxxxxx

I lost a stone in first 13 weeks, then since then I have gained 6lbs so still weigh less than I did pre-pg!!

Oh, and my DF can join all the other men - as I think he has put on about 10lbs!!! He starts his 'daily run' today - this happens every new year and last for about 2 days..........so we'll see how he goes

I went to the midwife earlier for my triples test and she weighed me im exactly the same weight as when i found out i was pregnant

 

[trixipaws]

i was weighed b4 my blood tests and was horrified to find i am almost 60kg! last time i weighed myself i was only 45kg but that was about 2 years ago lol

 

[TipsyDipsy]

I've put on about 30lb
I was a underweight before though and i've heard that can mean you put on more than average to catch up.
I've certainly been eating enough over Christmas to catch up lol.
Funny though I put on most of it in the first tri though and have slowed down through the pregnancy. I'm sure that my weight gain is going backwards
