Hey mamas, I got weighed at my 38 week appointment yesterday and I am the same weight I was at my 34 week appointment.
This is my first pregnancy so correct be if I'm wrong, but I thought you are meant to put on the most weight at the end?
Should I be concerned? my midwife didn't mention anything but then again nor did I bcos I didn't notice till I looked at my book when I got home.

I didn't gain any weight between 35-38 weeks (weighing at home, haven't been weighed at any midwife appointments) but my bump size increased at each appointment as expected so baby is obviously growing.
Is your midwife measuring you? If your bump is growing then the baby is probably putting on weight & you're losing it!
Fwiw I then gained 2kg between 38-40 weeks which I'm hoping is me & not the baby!
