I'm 30 weeks and have gained 30lbs. I have read in several books that you should gain about 1lb per week after 30 weeks so I expect to put on about 10 more. I gained 40lbs with my first and it came off very easily, so I'm notworried at all. I feel great and healthy and the Dr is thrilled with me. All my friends and family say I look great!

Hey, im currently 29 weeks & 1 day, i weighed 111 lbs when i was trying to conceive and didnt gain a pound until i was 18 weeks & 2 days (when i weighed 116 lbs (even though my doctor said i was under weight and needed to gain more and i was REALLY trying to!!!)

my doctor gave me some tips and i finally started to gain weight and as of my 22 week apt i weighed 127, then at 26 weeks i weighed 133! so i was gaining a lot around the holidays too :P

at my most recent appointment at 27 weeks & 5 days i weighed 137!! so ive gained 26 lbs already and my doctor wants me to gain 30-35 by my due date (11 weeks) so hopefully i dont go over :P i only gained 28 lbs with my first where i went from 104 (prepregnancy)-132 lbs (at hospital in labour) and my daughter weighed 6 lbs 6 ounces, born the day after her due date :)

i think this baby (a boy this time) is gonna 7 lbs minimum!! :P hopefully not much bigger!!! lol

Haha-guess I should have specified but I am now 30 weeks and 3 days and I have gained 20 lbs from my first OB appt. I have not had any sort of sickness along the way and have eaten rather healthy. Im very happy with this since I gained 57lbs with my first pregnancy. Looking good so far! It only took me 9 weeks to loose every single pound of that weight 3 years ago so I am really hoping I am as fortunate this time around :)

I've gained 20 lbs from what I was at on my first OB appt. However the month prior to that appt I had gained about 6 lbs from changing jobs and having some heart issues so I am about 26-28lbs more than what I should have been at pre-prego weight!

I have finally started gaining weight! I gained 6 pounds this month, which I have all the holiday goodies to thank for it. I have now gained a total of 9lbs and am 30 weeks. I hope to only gain another 10 or so over the next 9 weeks.

31 weeks and gained 22 lbs. I gained 60lbs with my first so I am thrilled that I have only gained 22 so far. Because I'm over weight the doctor said she would be fine with me gaining no more than 15 lbs. So with only 9 weeks to go I hope not to gain to much more :)

Is this weird? I'm 26 weeks with my second child and have not gained a pound. With my son I gained a total off 70 lbs my doc says I'm fine and the baby is always active ??? Anyone have a similar situation??

Its not healthy to compare your weight gain to others. What one should gain is totaly dependant on your starting weight or actualy amount of body fat you have rather. You need enough body fat to have a healthy pregnancy. If your already heavy then you SHOULD gain less....if your normal and dont gain at least 25-35 lbs Ive heard doctors say thats NOT good.

I have gained 0.. dr says its fine... im 27 wks.. Ive lost about 5lbs so far too, so im guessing if i dont gain any weight the rest of my pregnancy im gonna drop an instant 12lbs at least at birth. Daddy keeps telling me to eat more lol. I told i eat a little about every hour. Baby girl is over 2lbs already though :)

I lost some at the beginning due to morning sickness. At my 18 week appointment I was back to my pre-pregnancy weight. This is my third and, if the pattern repeats itself, I will probably only gain about 15 lbs total. I'm a very petite person, though, and my babies only weigh around 6 lbs.

As of 3 & 1/2 weeks ago I'd lost 12kg... not sure what that is in Ib's, but I'm sure it's a heck of a lot... like well over 20Ib's or even 30Ib's or something lol
But then I'm also a larger lady, so it doesn't actually look like anything has changed lol

At my 20 wk appointment I had gained 9 lbs, but I am right on track with weight gain which is good since I gained 60lbs with my 1st and it took me over 2 yrs to lose it all. So this time around I am trying not to over eat.

I've lost 8 lbs though Dr doesn't seemed concerned. I didn't lose very much weight after my first (gained 20 that time). Personally I'm wondering if its fat or muscle lol. I'm in school or studying (if I'm not playing with my son) most days so I don't get much exercise lol.

I lost nearly 30 lbs in my first pregnancy, only gained back 20 even after being put on a special diet to gain weight. I came out weighing less after pregnancy than I did before. My daughter was nearly 8 lbs and perfectly healthy.
I'm in the same situation this time, I've lost 20 lbs so far, on the diet once again, but I still havn't gained any weight yet, but I don't seem to be losing it anymore at this point either, I'll find out monday what the next step is. (It's twins, so I should be gaining 1-2 lbs a week by now.)

Ive lost around 12 so far, and I expect to keep losing. With my daughter I gained only 6 lbs. Once I had her I was about 10lbs lighter than I was at the start of my pregnancy.
