I'm 17wks and I havnt put on much weight only about 1-2kg. This is my second baby and with my first I put on like nearly 20kgs!! I have a 16mo and am chasing after him a fair bit! How much weight have you gained?? If it's too personal you don't have to answer I'm just curious cuz I havnt gained much yet. :-) thanks mummas

I havent put on any... I went up only 1 kilo then got back to the gym to stay healthy during pregnancy, not even hard working and I went back down. Dr has said its okay cause I have extra as long as I'm not trying to lose weight which I'm certainly not!! I'm staying healthy and keeping calories up. (I'm not a huge girl just got a few extra kilos left over from last baby) :)

i am in the same boat. i havent gained a pound yet and im a small person. (size 1) i am 19 almost 20 weeks now and this is my 2nd aswell. my 1st is 13 months and i too blame it on chasing after him. i didnt gain much with him and i doubt i will this time especially if i keep this pace. as long as my baby is healthy, i have no worries. :)

They just keep a close eye on the baby's growth. With my daugher I was down about 12 lbs until around 33 weeks, I then started gainning. I a lot was water weight the rest was my daughter's weight. I did end up gainning the weight back through out the year after my daughter was born though. That kinda stank.

Wow. That's so weird hey. :-) guess if it happens the right time your not so worried about it happening the second time. As long as the doc isn't worried guess it's fine.

Yeah wow that's strange. But you have three kids which is full on. And even though we are eating enough it's like we are burning it cuz we are running around after the others!!
