Weight gain

[Oldestchild90s]

Just wondered how much everyone gained overall or so far during pregnancy? I'm half way through and have gained quite a bit 😫 wondered if this was normal.. or just a food baby on top 😏

Over a stone at 20weeks!!

2st first time, around 4st second time...!

10lbs so far, I’m 20+4 with my first. No idea if that’s normal?!

2st first pregnancy, one dress size. Mainly due to inability to exercise I had severe SPD!

Just over 2 stone so far. 36 weeks. Gained most in the last 2 months I would say.

6 stone how is that even possible !!!! Went in at 16st up from 10st came out a week later at 12st lost another stone by Christmas 2003 from October and 16 years on have stuck a stone heavier give or take 1 stone heavier 1 stone lighter over that time. I’m 5ft 7 I had no stretch marks and 3 hr delivery after waters broken

I’m 21 weeks and I’ve gained around 9 or 10 lbs but my hips and thighs are already covered in stretch marks! 🤦🏼‍♀️

23 weeks and two days and 15 pounds so far! Not sure how normal that is

Only early here. 11+3, but have lost 3lbs. Been eating normally but no booze or booze related snacking. Make of that what you will!!

Thanks for the replies ladies! I've put on around 11lbs so far (21 weeks exactly today 😌) have any of you got any weird cravings? Struggling to eat healthily? I can't stop eating the bad stuff 😭

First pregnancy 1stone, second 4 stone, third 5 1/2 stone I'm due my section on Monday just hope I lose it quickly again can't quite believe I've gained that much this time .

About 20 kgs each pregnancy

I’m 19 weeks and have put on 10lbs, had such a sweet tooth since being pregnant though! Which isn’t helping with my healthy eating as I just want cake and chocolate lol! Never had a sweet tooth before.

I'm 32 weeks and have put on 15lbs so far. I have HG and lost half a stone in the 1st trimester and it took me until 20 weeks to put that back on! 😣

@Oldestchild90s craving all the bad stuff. Including McDonald’s (it’s now closed obviously which is probably a blessing for my waistline). Meat, especially bacon sandwiches. But most of all chocolate/sugar which is weird as I’ve always been a savoury kind of person! No weird cravings though. How about you?

I gained 20kg in both my pregnancies . I lost it all but it took nearly a year each time. Just completely ravenous from the 2nd trimester and while breastfeeding.

I put on about 14kg with a booking BMI of 36. I was really disappointed, as I didn't want to weigh more than 100kg at any point. Instead I wound up hitting the triple digits early in the second trimester. I put the scales away for the rest of my pregnancy after that. If I hadn't been weighed when admitted to hospital, I would never have known just how much weight I put on.

On a positive note, I'm now 8kg lighter than my booking weight 7 months post birth. Still obese, but getting there.

@Birdy1991 Oh my, a Big Mac was my new thing until McDonalds closed so i'm lost at the moment haha! No weird cravings as such, i've heard a few people mention that they like pickled onions, beetroot or gherkins but mine seems to be mainly bacon sandwiches, mini eggs and pancakes!

I was a little worried because some people have told me i 'must' eat really healthily then others have said to just relax and enjoy it while i can. I was a hardcore gym goer before i became pregnant so it has been nice to eat really really well for once!
