Weight gain second pregnancy

This is going to sound so vain but here it goes...

With DD1 I was 8 1/2 stone at my 7 week booking appointment. Gained 2 stone in pregnancy (after 6 weeks post birth) I was 10 1/2 stone.

DD2 I’m 9.12. Am I likely to gain another two stone like first time round!? Or shall I relax?

Thanks

I only put on 10lb with my second. Started at 9st 7 and was back at that weight a few weeks after birth.

Am 30 weeks now with 3rd and have put on 10lb so far, that been steady now for quite a while. I don’t really want to put on more than a stone, although with a newborn, 17 month old and a teen I reckon I will burn a lot off lol

21 weeks and have put on about 9lb. Started at 8stone12 now 9stone 7lb. No idea how much I will or am meant to gain as first baby...

In what part of pregnancy do you gain the most? If I've put on 9lbs so far at 21 weeks will I gain another 9lbs for the second half or is the weight gain more rapid?

@UserXx123 I'm pretty much in the same boat as you! I was 8st at 6 months pregnant with DD and went up to 10st. Now 9st 12lb and 5 weeks pregnant with my second. I guess we'll have to wait and see!
