Baby weight gain

[GabbyLawrence]

So I am 5 months pregnant and I have only gained 5lbs so far. Is that nomal? should I be concern? I eat good and a lot. My stomach seems to be growing I definitely look 5 months pregnant. This is my second baby, and its a boy! My first baby was a girl and I gained a lot of weight with her. So I'm wondering if that's what boys do and only gain weight from the stomach?

I'm 20 wks 4 days and I haven't gained any weight. As long as your doctor hasn't expressed any concern to you, everything is fine. This is my second baby too (and its a boy also)

I would say that you have nothing to worry about, as long as you're feeling baby move, then that's the important part :)
If you had any concerns, I'd call the doctor and ask. But so far, I don't think you have anything to worry about! I was in the same boat, until I hit 25 weeks, then I finally started putting on weight. It'll just come naturally

I'm 32 weeks with a baby boy and only gained 5 pounds my doctor says it's fine the baby is growing and healthy weight I wouldn't be worried unless doctor says it's bad I wouldn't stress over it :) take care

ok well i guess every pregnancy can be very different so i wont panic, because i know im eating healthy and trying to drink lots of water and exercise. plus my baby moves a lot, and so far he looks good on the ultrasound. i was just concern because all my other friends gained at least 1lb every week.

Im 21 weeks know? its like i gained 1lb each month. This pregnancy is so different from the first. I also have to make myself eat often because im never hungry! and when I do eat i get full quick!

When you say 5 months, how many weeks are you? At 17 weeks (5 months) I had only gained 2 lbs. Now I'm 21 weeks..about to go into my 6th month and have gained 10. It's all just belly though cause I'm still the same pants size. I'm having a boy also. So to answer your questions, 5 lbs is perfectly healthy.
