How much Weight have people gained ?

[sh13]

In my notes my BMI was 18.6 to begin with, im 27 weeks and gained two stone so far I still look the same apart from my big bump ...starting to wonder if il have a big baby , how’s everyone else getting on ?

39 +2 today. Starting bmi was 24. I've gained 2 stone 2 lbs. so I'm within the 'healthy' weight gain of 25-35 lbs for normal bmi. but my start bmi was considerably higher than yours!!

Just eat sensibly and when you're hungry - don't worry about the rest!!

34 weeks and 35lbs so far. I'm really annoyed as I went into this pregnancy with great intentions, a great diet, great exercise routine but it's been a rough one and I haven't eaten well or exercised at all. I'm still doing better than my first pregnancy though.

I gained 12lb up to 16 weeks . As most from xmas And New Years gain then no gain for 4 weeks. Then have gain 3lb 2 weeks straight and not eaten anything extra and been gym 2 days a week

None. I am 20 weeks, starting BMI of 22.

This is weird, I know. Baby is growing on schedule (just a little undersized) so it's basically eating me from the inside so far.

Now 16 weeks and I've put on a pound, although a new belly is definitely forming. My 12 week BMI was 22.

The thinner you are the more you should gain

Currently 40+2
Started at maybe 18bmi? 53.5kg put on 10.7kg
And tbh, I've actually put on muscle and lost some fat since pregnancy too! Yay squats and arms! 😉
Totally dependant on your body and water weight! Definitely not about the thinner you are the more you should gain bs.

Im 37 weeks and so far have put only 12 pounds on, have had a growth scan and the baby is roughly 6.3 pounds at the moment.

Bmi of 20.4 to begin with..
24 weeks
Gained 9lb so far..

I was 103kg when I got pregnant and now at just 22weeks I’m 112kg. Year before last I was 120 so maybe this weight gain is partly to do with all those fat cells that didn’t quite leave me just getting filled up again real easy. I try to exercise 3x a week, and since last week’s discussion with a midwife about gestational diabetes I’ve cut out sugar. I’m hoping I won’t gain any more but I’m SO TIRED and hungry all the time! This is my first pregnancy.

34 weeks. Lost a stone by 13 weeks. Gained back 9 of those so far. Don’t recommend hyperemesis.

*BMI is 36 sorry, I’m new so I guess there’s not an edit button

26 weeks. 22.9 starting BMI. Have gained around a stone. Didn't gain anything until week 16 or so.

I'm nearly 29 weeks and have gained 3lbs so far this is the only pregnancy I've actually put on weight, I was bigger to start with my BMI was 30.1 at booking in

I think my bmi at booking was 27.something.
I’ve gained about 5lb at 29 weeks.

My previous pregnancies I gained 1lb, 10lb and 87lb!

I started off with BMI of around 18.3, similar to yourself. I'm now 21 weeks, and I've gained 17lbs already. I only started gaining after 13 weeks, which means I've gained around 2lbs a week since then, higher than the normal recommended of 1lb a week, so I'm trying to eat better and get some exercise down to slow down my weight gain. I realised I started with a lower BMI than most so should gain more, but I still don't want to gain too much throughout the pregnancy.

I'm 39+5 and have gained 3 stone. Was overweight to begin with (BMI 29) and really disappointed with myself.

I started off with a BMI of 22. I'm now 39 weeks and have gained 17lbs.

Gained 10kg (22 lb), I’m 33 weeks and bmi was 19.3 to start with. This is my second pregnancy and I feel like it’s skightly more than my first when babe was 9.1 lb when he arrived (I’m 5’2!!). I was wondering if this was a bit much but I have also read if yr bmi is lower you’d expect to gain a bit more.

I started off with a BMI of 17.5 and I'm now 24 weeks and have gained 16lbs.

Im 5ft 2 & usually 10stone...bmi is 24 i think (just over the healthy mark)...I put on 21lb all in all by the time i had the baby.So i was 11st 7lb.. 1stone dropped off within 2 weeks and the other 7lb slowly followed...i think if your very very slim you gain more...If your quite curvy already you have enough reserves as such lol x

My BMI was 24 at booking, I'm 35 weeks and have gained about 2 stone. Last time I gained 4 so I'm pretty proud of myself! I've had hyperemesis this time so lost some at the start but generally been more sensible.

Thank you everyone this is really helpful , a few of you similar to me made me feel better ! It seems to all be in my bump don’t have much weight gain anywhere else, it’s a shock to see so much on the scales though ! 😂 il double check with my midwife x

Good to know it falls off quick after birth also!
