How many stone did you put on during pregnancy

[Codoftherings]

Hi

How many stone did you put on in your pregnancy? Just curious on the variety of answers x

I'm 33 weeks and have gained 2st so far but it all seems to be belly and boobs! Still fitting in low waisted trousers from pre pregnancy.
Had a starting BMI of 23

2 stone. I think half of that was baby related (the baby, placenta, exta blood etc) and half was my body - bigger boobs, more fat. I am surprised by how little some people have put on!

I put on 19kg with DS and lost 11kg of it within 2 weeks.

I had the start of pre-eclampsia and a lot of it was water, I was so puffy.

Since losing the 11kg, my weight has stayed the same regardless of what I eat. I’m breastfeeding and DS is 6 months so just be aware that it doesn’t just fall off for everyone.

DC 1 - BMI of 21.9, put on 3.5stone. DC1 was 8 and a half pounds.

DC 2 - BMI of 25, put on 4 stone. DC2 was almost 10lbs. I was surprised to put on so much as I had bad HG for most of the pregnancy

Currently 10 weeks with DC3 with a BMI of 28, and have lost half a stone so far as been so sick. Praying I don’t put much on this time as I’m far too heavy anyway and can’t afford to pile it on

Nearly 4.

I was only 8 stone to begin with.

DS was 7lb 4

I lost the weight almost immediately

Are we talking about weight just before giving birth? Of just after baby etc is all out?

35 weeks and haven't weighed myself for months but at a rough guess I'd say approximately 8 million stone.

Under a stone and lost it in the first 10 days but I had hyperthyroidism

I went from 9st 10lb to 11st 3lb. And lost it again within 3 months. I think bf helped. Plus I had baby blues so went hiking with ds in sling to cheer myself up.

Pregnancy weight gain isn't the problem. It's the weight gain from the toddler years you need to worry about. Seriously. I lost all of my baby weight gain within six months both times. I'm still trying to lose the weight I put on when I was juggling a grumpy 2YO and 4YO and working nights. My youngest is 6 now.

2 st with 2 sons, I thought it was complusory, and ate like mad towards the end, if I’d known would have been few lbs lighter.
Back to pre pregnancy weight with both 6 weeks in

I put on about 2 stone each pregnancy. Was under 8stone at the start of both pregnancies. I just ate normally but I think 3rd trimester I was def eating more than I normally wld just felt hungrier.

About 2 and a half stone and I'm 38+5 weeks. But my diet really hasn't been good either, I've craved sweet things like chocolate and cake the whole way through 😂😂 so I will really have to change this once baby is out! Try not to worry, you will lose alot of it once baby is out!!

You mean you thought you had to gain 2st?

11lb. All came off (plus a bit more) with the birth.

3.5 stone with my first!

I’ve lost 12lb with my second with Slimming World. Baby is growing fine.

Starting BMI around 24 in both pregnancies.

DD- gained 2 stone, she weighed 7lb 9oz. Lost 1 stone in a week and the rest gradually came off over the next 9 months approx. Breastfed baby. I did eat more to compensate for the BF though.

DTs- gained 3.5 stone, they weighed 7lb 1oz and 6 lb 5oz so nearly a stone between them! I lost 2 st in the first 7-10 days and the rest is slowly coming off, 2 months pp. Bottle fed babies.

I’m 16 weeks and have put on 1.5 stone already
In my defence, I had to take loads of steroids in the early weeks, and went from running 10+ miles a week to zero overnight
But I’ve also been eating like a total 🐷

9 stone to 12.5 stone
3.5 stone
I am 5 foot.

Currently weigh 8 stone 5 but it’s years since I was last pregnant.

33 weeks and put on 2 stone so far
