I weighed myself which I hadn't done in a good few months (and they haven't at hospital either) and I've put on 4.5kg since booking in. I'm currently 27 weeks. Looking to get a sense of what's average. I've also heard you put most weight on after 30 weeks...

Omg you guys are so lucky. I'm 36+4 and have gained 16kg which is 35lbs. I'm ok with it as started at 61kg and 171cm, and my first I gained 40kg (85lbs!!!) but lost it all very quickly. I think my body needs it as I was very lean and muscular, not much body fat. I feel ok about my 16kg. I haven't gained anything for a few weeks so maybe Thi will be my max!

Whoops, posted twice. Sorry! Thought my first message had goneAWOL...

I'm 31 weeks and have put on about 10kg so far. Most of that came after 25 weeks... so pretty suddenly, it feels to me. It's like baby found a foot pump!

update: I've already lost 3/4 of a stone since conception and now, at 29 weeks, I've just weighed myself and I've lost another 3kg in 2 weeks. I'm really starting to worry. My midwife said it's normal but weight keeps dropping off me. I suffered horrific morning sickness until week 24 but since then i was hoping to start putting weight back on not stil losing it. Baby is fine according to midwife but I'm worried this can't be normal!

I'm 10 weeks and already put on 3kg.

Strokethefurrywall · 13/08/2017 14:39

I put on 20lbs each with both mine. With DS1 I'd lost all of it within a week, DS2 I lost all of it and then gained 10lbs chocolate mini egg weight (Easter!) which I had to frantically shift the month before I went back to work!

There is no "normal" when it comes to pregnancy weight gain, I've got a tiny petite friend who weighs about 115lb regularly but stacked on 4stone with all of her pregnancies - took her a bit longer to shed it afterwards but her body just adjusted to what she needed.

I'm 27+3 and have put on 7.7kg since conception, expecting to pile a bit more on in the coming weeks but not overly worried at this point, it's all bump and boobs!

SayNoToCarrots · 13/08/2017 19:44

30 weeks and 1st 6, so around 10kg.

Mandraki · 14/08/2017 07:23

Am 32 weeks and I last weighed myself at 30 weeks, where I'd gained 1 stone 10lbs. Not going to weigh myself again until I'm in labour haha!

I'm 29+3 and have put on 2 stone 3lb staying on track i'll have put on 3 stone by the time baby arrives... although i have a small elephant inside me so still hopeful for a snao back! Lol

BlueeSpottyTiger · 14/08/2017 12:49

With my dd i went from 8st6 pre-preg to 10st10 when she was due! Xx

Bluerose27 · 14/08/2017 18:57

30 weeks. I've gained 10/12 kg

LaurenAnn94x · 14/08/2017 20:16

First trimester - nothing, second trimester 4kg and I'm 36+4 now got measured again today and I've put on another 3kg so 7kg altogether. Although baby is 7lb of that so far and I have excess fluid so mostly baby anyway!

oldlaundbooth · 14/08/2017 20:17

About 2.5 stone.

I put on 3.5 stone altogether.

AccrualIntentions · 14/08/2017 20:24

9kg at 25 weeks Shock That's a lot more than I would have liked, but I've now got a gestational diabetes diagnosis and can't eat anything unhealthy anymore anyway, so hopefully the weight gain will tail off.

Alwaysinahurrynow · 14/08/2017 20:31

I wouldn't be too concerned with each of my three pregnancies, I put on 4 to 4.5st. Yes, it's got harder to lose the last 6-8 pounds or so (no 1 - 6 months, no2 - 9 months, no 3 - hoping for 12 months), but life is busier and I do less exercise and more driving now. It's totally achievable though (esp if you stop eating cake and chocolate).

geologyrocks · 14/08/2017 23:52

I'm 21 weeks and have gained 10kg..ive really piled it on. I wouldn't mind but baba is measuring small :(
