How much weight did you all gain
throughout your pregnancies?
Did you gain more with your first compared
to your second?
At what point in your pregnancy did you
gain the most weight?
-hopeful

i gained 27 pounds.. I gained weight
throughout my pregnancy..But on my 5 month
I gained 10 pounds ..So I would have to
say that was the most at one time I gained
during the whole pregnancy..I gained and
then lost ..The whole time though..But im
not sure about the second child ...Because
I have only had one ..But I have always
heard that you always gain more with your
second and its harder to lose weight with
your second..But not sure about that last
part just what I heard lol

Well ive put on sooo much weight its not
funny but my ob tells me its all fine
because I was too thin to begin with...
I put on 61pounds and ive still got 4
weeks to go!
Also its not always 'fat' I have alot of
water retention, so bad that I cant walk
which is most of the weight.
Ob says it will all be gone soon after
baby is born... Lets hope! Im only 18
and I cnt stand looking in the mirror.
Has anyone else put on that much? Thats
twice what everyone else has put on! :?

weeks. I was soo huge.. I never thought
I would ever go back to normal. I was
115lbs before pregnant, and went all the
way to 180lbs. That don't look too hot
on a small frame..Even if you are preggo

Wow, it sure does vary. I've gained just
about 20 pounds so far, and i've still got
6 weeks to go. I wonder how much more
i'll gain in that time.

I was waay underweight when I got preggy.
I was weighing in at like 120 -125, and
for me that was skinny. About 5/6 months
prior to losing so much weight I was about
140-145.
My first dr's appt, I was 10 1/2 weeks,
and weighed in at 132. At 23 weeks I was
158. I go back on the 1st of feb. And
i'm positive i've gained more. My Dr.
Wasn't concerned because it's all baby.
I'm 26 1/2 weeks now and beating the war
with stretch marks, that was the only
thing that really concerned me.
So I guess it depends on where you gain it
or how your metabolism is.

Yeah, stretch marks are gonna be war. But
I can cover them up so it's ok!! It will
be worth it. All my weight gain is in my
stomach. My face didn't even puff up n'
get chubby....Yet. My dr told me it was
a good sign I could still wear my wedding
ring as a lot of women this far along have
so much swelling.
I had my Dr. Apt. Today with a different
Dr. Than I regularly have and he seems to
think the baby is head down. After the
baby turns does it make it even more
uncomfortable? For the past week i've
felt so uncomfortable to sit down or even
lay in bed. Thanks.

My ring used to turn....Now it makes an
imprint in my finger. I take it off
sometimes...I don't really like doing that
though...But if my finger strats to look
puffy above the ring..Then i'll take it
off. So far I got a little chubby in the
face..But that's common.
No cankles yet though!!!!! I'mm sure
they'll be on their way!!
