To all how much weight you gained during pregnancy?

[Aimily]

It's not really unreasonable, more nosey.

I'm 29 +4 and have only gained half a stone on my pre-pregnancy weight. Approx 1 stone in total as I lost half a stone in the first trimester with morning sickness.

I'm starting to feel unnerved with this weight gain as even though my midwife said everything is on track, quite a few people have commented on how small I still am for how far gone I am.

So just to calm my crazy hormones a bit, can I asked what you gained in your first pregnancy?

I gained 21lbs each time even though first baby was a whopper and second much smaller.

5 stone but I ate what I wanted and didn't care, still loosing it now 2 years later 😂

I gained 4 stone with first 😮🙁 and three with second. Never overweight or obese prior to pregnancy. Spent 7 months feeling quite literally starving hungry and lost track of what Zi was gaining. Have never managed to lose it all.

I gained nothing - but had hyperemesis. So, once I gave birth I weighed less than I did at first appointment weighing in.

What was the killer for me was maternity leave. I gained three stone - a combination of finally being able to eat, some PND, my days having no real routine and a baby that didn’t sleep meaning I reached for sugar and fat.

i gained 160 pounds during my pregnancy, thanks to all the McDonald’s cravings.

4 stone all in the last 3 months.

3 stone not to be recommend.

If your midwife isn't worried then just try to be thankful you'll be nice and slim once the baby is born.

First pregnancy at 25, I gained 15-20 pounds I was small for the entire pregnancy, no big deal DD was a healthy 8lb.

Currently 18 weeks pregnant with twins, gained 25-30 pounds 😅 hoping it all baby...

The only time i didn't feel sick was when i was eating.

I was like you didn't gain any weight as such, just what the baby weighed and the water, came out of hospital 1lb heavier than before pregnant. I had a perfectly healthy pregnancy and baby so I wouldn't worry. People are just different.

First pregnancy, I gained about 2.5-3 stone.

Nearly 38 weeks with my second and I've gained 8kg so far.

I weighed 9stone before I got pregnant and gained over 4 stone, baby was 8 pounds - I ate normally throughout my pregnancy .

I gained 2 stone the first time, "bounced back" the first 3 months after birth, gained it again (biscuits and naps) and added another 2 stone with 2nd pregnancy.

First one gained 4 stone and gave birth to a 7lb baby 😳
I learnt my lesson after that!

2.5 stone and it stretched my stomach into an awful apron of loose skin. I have no idea how women who gained more than that have somehow snapped back into shape 😩

I gained exactly a stone each time which was strange 😂

I'm 29 weeks and iv gained about 11 pounds so far. Most of that within the last few weeks. I really don't want to gain more than a stone and a half!

I gained 4 stone in my first two pregnancies. Awful to try and lose afterwards. I had dd2 three weeks ago and gained 15 pounds, and I’m now 2 pounds lighter than I was pre pregnancy. She was my biggest baby too at over 9 pounds. I wouldn’t worry. I had a growth scan towards the end as my bump measured small, but the scan revealed the whopper hiding within!

3.5 1st pregnancy, had lost 2.5 by the time he was 8 months and I'm pregnant again so it's pretty much all back on again

16 lb with first
14 lb with second
24 lb with third (twins)

With the exception of the third, I gained pretty much no weight until about 7 months.

Just under a stone with each pregnancy. No need to worry about your weight op. Everyone is different

6st with no 1 he was born 8lb 27 inches
7st with no 2 he was born 8lb10 26 inches

i go massive when pregnant as boys are very long and big

I gained 10kg. Baby was 6lb 7oz. I don't believe in eating for 2 and all that nonsense. I was careful with what I ate. I didn't want to end up huge.

Thank you everyone, I don't think I'd quite appreciated how different everyone's body is and how much variation there can be.

I've only 'popped' in the past 2 weeks too, so it's only now that it's clear I'm pregnant whereas before I just looked bloated.

I'll try and remember if my midwife isn't worried I shouldn't be 😊

I gave birth two weeks late and on that day I was 1st 10lb up on booking in. Baby was 8lb
