I am now in my 3rd trimester I have always been big and been trying to keep weight under control at booking in I was 100kg just hopped onto scale and now am 111kg :( at 31 weeks!!

Must do better with my eating but it has been my birthday so had meals out and lots of cake back to fruit it is lol!

I've put on about 12kg (started at 95 with a BMI of 29ish) and am also 31 weeks. Most of this was in the 2nd tri - 1-2 kg in the first and another 1 in third so far. I didn't want to put that much on but it's happened now so I'll just have to sort it out once the baby comes! :)

I'm 27 weeks - starting BMI of 33 - and have put on 3kg so far. First pregnancy with BMI 27 before getting pregnant, it was 10kg.

Meplusyouequals4 · 02/02/2015 09:38

this pregnancy I was 101kg at booking. I'm now currently 120 kg at 39 weeks.

with DD I was booking weight of 80kg. predelivery weight of 110kg

with DS booking was 60kg. predelivery was 98kg

Maxis1 · 02/02/2015 10:15

OP ... only 11 kg sounds pretty good to me!

I dont know how much I weighed to begin with but at 13 weeks they had me at 68kg and at 35 weeks as 83kg. Have been staying away from the scale since but am 39 weeks now and wearing size 16 track bottoms

WhyOWhyWouldYou · 02/02/2015 10:42

In my first pregnancy I gained a few stone! This time im 38weeks and have gained just under 6kg - this means I have actually lost bodyweight (not tried to diet or anything, just happened).

By the end of pregnancy I think its something like an average of 8.5kg of your weight will be baby, placenta, additional blood, additional womb muscle mass, etc.

Ive put on a lot of weight in previous pregnancies, booking in weight this time was 75kg im now 76.4 at 32 weeks. Nothing has been mentioned and I assume all is ok,baby is a good size as had growth scan but that was for my high BP. I think everybody and every pregnancy is different.

Alyx80 · 02/02/2015 11:34

Numbers 1&3 I put on 2 stone, #2 I put on 2.5 stone and #4 I put on 1.5 stone. I was a 14-16 each time to begin with and #4 was my heaviest baby. I'm 3.5 weeks after birth of #4 and now 5lb over pre pregnancy weight but not doing anything about it just yet.

bwow · 02/02/2015 11:35

Started at 12 and a half stone, nearly 16 last time I checked! Daren't get on again!

kulashaker · 02/02/2015 11:37

i had BMI Of 35 at booking, and have put on 12lbs and im 34 weeks. i put on weight very easily, so was suprised its not more! i find as the baby has got bigger, i think its presses on my stomach as i cant eat much these days! its a bit like having a gastric band i imagine haha!

OhMjh · 02/02/2015 11:39

Booking 57kg, 40 weeks was 64kg. Went from a size 8 to a size 12/14 but it was all baby ( no real weight anywhere other than my bump and boobs) and I was back in my jeans a week later.

I don't think I'll be so lucky next time!

I put on 3 and a half stone. I'm usually very petite so I looked huge. My midwife was horrified lol. It was not all baby it was all food! Ha ha. It took me a year to get back to normal size (ds is 1 in 2 weeks time). I took lots of walks with the pram and cut out junk food. Now ds is up on his feet I have lost half a stone in the last month and I'm actually smaller than pre pregnancy.

I was big for a long time after but knew it would come off eventually. I suppose I could have made a bigger effort but I'm just too tired!

I started at 68KG BMI 28 I'm now 83kg with just over 12 weeks to go sometimes I worry about it but Midwife has said anything. I try to stay active walking & do yoga plus eating wisely. My baby sitting really lately so it's hard to eat a lot at once now without being or feeling sick

rosedavo · 02/02/2015 18:00

Before pregnant i was size 10 and about 56kg (im 5"2) and im now 20 weeks and 60ish kg, so put on 4kg. Im still size 10 but in maternity clothes lol. Although i had to buy a size 18 coat as i wouldnt pay stupid money for a maternity one and nothing else fit over my bump lol

Kemlex13 · 02/02/2015 22:16

I was 78kg at booking dropped to 69kg and just off scales in 84kg and 34 weeks... My bump is massive and feels all baby. I'm hoping baby will be here in around 3 weeks and I manage somehow not to balloon on the last few weeks as I usually do lol

RavioliOnToast · 02/02/2015 22:33

I've gained 13lbs this time around. Have been under consultant led care until around 2 weeks ago when they discharged me back to midwifery led. with DD1 however I gained 4 stone.
