Weight Gain?

[LlamaLlover]

Okay so I'm naturally a very petite girl. Before my first pregnancy I was only 88lbs and barely 5ft tall. Well with my son, I gained a whopping 45lbs!! Even my doctor said that I shouldn't have gained that much especially since I was so small. About two weeks after giving birth to my son, I literally dropped all of my pregnancy weight and was at 90lbs. So now I'm 16wks and 4 days with baby number two and I've already gained about 11lbs and from the looks of it, my doctor says I'm probably gonna put on a lot of weight again. I'm a very physically active person (especially since my bf is a personal trainer lol) and I watch what I eat and drink. I just don't understand why I of all people put on sooo much weight. Any other ladies in a similar situation?

Well I'm a pretty busty even before pregnancy I was a C cup and now my boobs are past a DD :/ so maybe they account for some of that weight lol I wish I had a big butt! It's a little fuller now but not big. As for my belly, people think I'm already like 5-6months when I'm barely 4 lol

I was never near that small! Lol  I'm 5'4 and my previous pregnancy weight was 150. It was all muscle tho because I didn't look like I weighed that much at all!!  Anyways this is my first pregnancy, I'm 30w6d and so far I've gained 26lb!!  :/   I don't know how I work out everyday.  My baby doc said most of it must have went to my butt because my belly isn't that big..  my butt definitely got a lot bigger tho!! Lol

Weight also comes from Placenta ,amniotic fluid, your breast tissue , extra blood & the baby its self. That alone from one of my pregnancy books say its abt 30lbs already
