I must be an anomaly, I gained 5 stone during pregnancy. Started at 8 stone and ended up over 13 stone at the end. A few months post baby I went back to 8 stone. I wouldn’t panic, it’s different for everyone.

This is me... almost full term (about 37 weeks). I didn't gain much weight. I was back in my normal jeans when I came out of hospital... I would say maybe just under 2 stone... perhaps less.

9st 2 to 13st via 8st 7. I couldn't eat in the first half so was gaining bump and losing weight, and then gained 50% of my bodyweight in the second half. By the last week I had to stand sideways at the sink to reach the taps, and I couldn't drive in the last month. Being stuck in the house with SPD did not help either as I couldn't burn energy and ended up with lots of water retention. Plus it was a big bump with lots of baby and fluid.

2 stones went in the weeks after birth. I lost the 2 of "me" weight over the next year and settled at 8st 10 before going in for a reapeat. That pregnancy was a lightweight 3st, again, lost it in the year after.

Lost a stone and a half. No sickness, but think my thyroïde fonction may have improved. It fell apart when dd was 2 ans I gained 6 stone.

21lbs both times, and lost it both times at or shortly after birth.

About a stone and a half. I was 22 when I was pregnant though and very slim and could easily keep the weight off. I weigh more now at 31 than I did when I was pregnant!

5 stone. Lost it all in 18 months afterwards.

Not sure with my first but my 2nd & 3rd around 5 stone each time. I'd just got back to my pre pregnancy weight after the 2nd & got pregnant with my 3rd so now trying to shift it again 😫

I lost nearly a stone through severe nausea and vomiting throughout. Very unwell.
