29 weeks - weight gain

[Notsohomely]

I have gained 13 pounds at 29 weeks and frankly feel huge.

how much did you gain by this point? Getting worried how big I will be given I have the biggest growth trimester to go!

I'm not sure as I didn't weigh myself. Are you eating fairly healthily @Notsohomely?

At 29 weeks I was 21lb more than my booking in weight. Now I’m 33 weeks and 24lb more. I felt huge at first but, looking back at the photos, I really wasn’t. And people keep telling me I’ve got nothing to show for being pregnant than my little pot belly. Everyone is different and babies do different things to our bodies, which is perfectly ok.

@Notsohomely I am also 29 weeks and have gained 20lb! I have been using a pregnancy weight gain tracker to check, I’m at the upper end of normal weight gain given my pre pregnancy weight and height, but still within normal.
It’s quite common and provided you’re eating the right things, there isn’t much you can do so try not to worry

Me too! This is the tracker I use: www.calculator.net/pregnancy-weight-gain-calculator.html

@BanjoVio that’s the exact same one I use 😊

Each time I'd put on more than u by ten weeks and I'm slim and healthy. I had healthy pregnancies and babies and the weight came off no problem afterwards each time.

Weight gain is healthy and normal. There is no one trimester where the most weight is put on - it really varies from woman to woman. For me it's the first trimester then it kind of slows down a bit.

Relax and be sure to eat plenty.

That's fine honestly! I've gained 16lbs, but I weighed myself at night and fully dressed so I'm flattering myself that it'll be a few lbs less 😂

Very little of it will be fat.

Sorry, to add, I'm 30w
