Weight - Yay or Nay?

[Ems]

Has anyone weighed themselves yet?

I haven't and just for the record, I dont think I will because at this stage I could get a horrible shock and make my hormones a lot worse.
However I will weigh myself about 2-3 weeks after birth and then set myself a goal to lose however many stone / pounds.

What about everyone else xxxxx

I'm doing the same as you

i last weighed myself at 26 weeks where i'd gotten upto 9st 9lb, dont have access to any scales since then which im gutted about

my major challenge now is to hold onto my prenancy weight and not drop back down, wont beeasy especially with looking after two now and doing the school runs

I haven't weighed myself for a while......I think if I remember/get the chance I will weigh myself the day I go into labour, purely from a curiousity point of view to then see what I weight once I've had LO. Will then start to look at short term goal for weight loss and longer term what i'd like to get back too.

I am fully prepared for the fact that I have put on more weight than we're meant to, last time I weighed myself (a few weeks back) I had put on 2 and a had put on 2 and half stone already! I had a friend that out 4 stone on with her first and 3 and a half with her second.......she now looks amazing! Not saying I will be that lucky but at least it's doable!!

I want to weigh myself when I go into labour too - then as soon as I come home just to see how much baby and placenta and waters etc all actually added. Then I can say i've lost 9lb already

I have put on 2 stone so far - but I want to actually lose 4 stone as the other 2 stone crept on slowly over the last few years and would be nice to get back down to 9 and a half (currently 13 and a half)

I haven't really focused on it at all, I'm like you - planning on worrying about shifting any weight after the baby arrives.

I did get quite a pleasant surprise when the midwife weighed me at 36wks though. Apparently I'd only put on 1kg since she last weighed me at 13wks. I must have lost some weight due to early sickness. Unfortunately I feel I may have put on a bit since 36wks though, I've been constantly hungry for the past month!

I weigh myself twice every week I find it interesting, and putting on weight doesn't scare me - I know it's completely normal!

Ive weighed myself just twice out of curiosity, last time being 3 or 4 days ago and I had put on about 15 pounds since I found out I was pg

I was 8.5stone when I got pregnant. Was 10 stone 3 weeks ago today and weighed myself today at midwifes and am now 10.5 stone. So 2 stone put on so far, half a stone in the last 3 weeks alone. don't really mind as its all helping the baby. Will be hopefully losing it when its time though xx

I've put on a stone and 3lb but since being put on insulin for my diabetes and cchanging my diet I've lost 5lb in last week really not feeling great about it tbh .. Seeing dietician friday xx

Hiya

I was 9st 8 ish before I became pg, I weighed myself about 2 weeks ago and I had gone up to 12st 4!! I'm not worried tho, I find it interesting.. I found it funny that I now weigh more than my boyfriend lol! Weighed myself a few days ago and I've gone down to 11st 10! I don't know where I have put it all on to tho cuz I'm all bump!

xx

I weigh myself once a week on my ticker change day and measure my bump, find it interesting to see the changes. I've been monitoring my weight as I put 4 1/2 stone on when I had my daughter and ballooned from an 8 to 16, really didn't want that to happen again! Takes a good 9 months to lose it again! This time I've put on about a stone and half so far........

 

[ForestLas80]

I weigh myself once a week and am doing it out of curiosity, not to try and keep it down or anything. I have put on 13lbs so far but do expect it to have gone up a lot more by the end of pregnancy. Haven't moved out of some of my more roomy size 12 clothes yet (one pair of jeans still fits under bump !) so I'm not complaining. I really am not a naturally tiny slim person (as I am a true foodie) but a healthy weight and genuinely happy to put on whatever my baby needs me to to make them healthy.

I have been weighing myself right the way through. I started off around 54kgs (8st 7lbs) and last weighed myself last Friday, at 35 weeks, at 64.1kgs (10st 1.3lbs) so I have put on around 10.1kgs (1st 8.3lbs).

I started off about a stone over weight though as I'm only 5ft 1in and weighed about 7.5st before I had any children.

Ideally I'd love to get back down to 7.5 stone again after the birth of this baby.

 

[stacey_lea86]

I was 68.5 kilos at my last check (Wednesday) I was 54 at the beginning of pregnancy! Ooops

i never weighed meself before and havent been weighing myself throughout either. But i never have dieted always ate like a pig and had an average figure and seeing as im sitting here in my pre pregnancy trousers and top really dont think ive put on anything just weird having a round tummy instead of flat.

Would defo like to get my fitness back up though as havent moved for the last 9 months and any little walk now im just panting away lol its horrendous espesh when my 65 year old mom can walk faster than me and not get out of breathe oops! xx
