I'm:
31 weeks
2 stone 7lb heavier

This seems a lot so I'm puzzled. I don't have any extra weight anywhere except the bump and everyone tells me I have a small neat bump.

Curious to hear others current weight gain...

I've put on a stone and a half and I'm half way through. But I've put it all on around my waist/ bum! Last pregnancy I had such a neat bump and you couldn't even tell I was pregnant from behind. This time I look totally different Confused

I gave birth today Grin. Yesterday I was 25lb up. I'm already deflating fast so very happy overall.

I hardly put on weight when I was pregnant. I was back in my pre pregnancy jeans within a month

Really interesting.. I'm 30+1 and was 63 kilos pre pregnancy (5"3) and now 73 kilos which I believe means I've put on 1.5 stone.

21 weeks and I have 3lb on since booking in. I am very overweight though so have been trying to keep the weight down. The midwife tells me my weight gain will go crazy towards the end Confused

Blondeshavemorefun · 21/01/2017 14:03

I've literally put on 7lbs and 3.5 of that is baby so weight 3.5lbs extra iyswim

Thinknas have hg and so sick early months and even now at 30w I still lose meals. As did today :(

Everyone is different

beachsands · 21/01/2017 14:12

I'm 22 weeks and up about 10-11 lbs going by my non digital scales. By the end of my other pregnancies I'd put on close 3 stone.

Yankeedoodledickhead · 21/01/2017 14:22

I'm 34+1 and have gained 1st 10lb. I'm pretty pleased with that though because I've had polyhydramnios since 24 weeks and also have a larger baby on board, at my last scan this week, he was 6lb 3oz.

MinnieNoush · 21/01/2017 18:09

I'm nearly 30 weeks and have gained exactly 2 stone. I was a size 8-10 before, now i'm more like a 12. I have definitely been eating a lot of junk so i'm not surprised, but i'm not worried as i'm sure it will come off in a healthy amount of time after the baby is born.

jpeg28 · 21/01/2017 18:45

28 weeks and have gained 1 stone 8lb... was about half a stone over weight to start with too Confused I was worried beforehand but now I don't care. I eat well and have treats too but also get a reasonable amount of exercise... I'll think about losing it once baby is here!

LurkinMerkin · 22/01/2017 00:03

Pre pregnancy I was 10st7 ( 5'6 height) and a size 12. Now at 31 weeks I've basically hit the 2st weight gain mark but like a few others I'm carrying most of it out front and haven't put on much anywhere else ( except boobs) my bump is v big!! Grin I'm still a size 12 in maternity clothes.

I'm not too worried about the weight gain, I'm just embracing it all and plan to lose sensibly after bubba appears. Everyone is different and unless your midwife expresses concern, either with gains or losses, just try not to worry! X

user1484383294 · 22/01/2017 17:25

I'm 37+1 and I've put on just under 3 stone so far. In laws keep asking me if I'll try and lose it after baby is here. I've said I'll be far too busy eating whatever I can get my hands on and trying to stay sane to go to the gym. Wink

LurkinMerkin · 22/01/2017 23:14

user why on earth are they asking you that, 1) it's none of their effin business and 2) at 37 weeks I think you've got plenty more on your mind. Butt out in-laws!

Can see me busting through the 3 st ceiling if I carry on the way I'm going...bring it! Grin

Dozyoldtwonk · 22/01/2017 23:26

36 weeks exactly & this morning was 18lbs up (1 stone 4lbs). I'm amazed it isn't more TBH as I've been ravenous from about 20 weeks onwards & eaten pretty well what I like when I like. Have tried to stay as active as possible though - probably didn't but I'm convinced that helped me through labour last time Smile I'd gained similar at this stage with DC1 pregnancy though I was heavier to start with then. Everyone is saying I look huge compared to first pregnancy though Grin

Last time I lost the weight quickly without really trying hello lack of sleep forgetting to eat & generally stressing over PFB, hope the same goes this time.

Lovemylittlebear · 23/01/2017 04:11

Same as you OP though for me sone of it it weight gain from moving a bit less and eating a bit more. Got told off by midwife but in all my pregnancies it's followed a similar trend. Wanted to slap fil yesterday for calling me fatty all the time - as I was eating dds chocolate birthday cake lol x

Joceshe · 23/01/2017 08:17

Im 23 weeks and am currently 15 pounds up. Annoyingly half of this gain has been since christmas as bubba decided to have a growth spurt since then and hasnt really stopped lol. I went from barely showing to having a sufficient bump very quickly. Was a size 8 pre pregnancy and am still an 8 in maternity trousers. I hope my gains start to level out soon though cause at 5 foot 1, im not enjoying the extra weight at all!!

soundsystem · 23/01/2017 08:23

I've put on loads this time round, almost 2 stone. I can't seem to stop eating...

I don't look humongous (I don't think) but my thighs and face are definitely chubbier. My bump is apparently quite "neat".

I'm hoping once the baby's here I'll be too busy with him and the toddler to eat so many biscuits!
