Omgosh! !!!

I'm at my doctors appointment and so far I've gained 24 pounds in the 6 months of my pregnancy.  Please tell me I'm not the only one gaining a ton of weight. I have a lot to lose after this little girl arrives I'm just hoping it's not going to be difficult.

I'm 24 weeks and I have gained 13 lbs. I look like I have gain 25 lbs but everything is shifting around! Like I didn't have a butt all of a sudden my @$$ is huge! My hips went wide and my boobs are at least 2 cup sizes bigger! My baby belly is for sure showing! Its crazy how your body changes! I'm hoping thing will go back to somewhat normal after baby girl gets here!

38 wks I've gained 35 lbs its mostly belly Im not super concerned about it im planning on breast feeding so im hoping that will help and then i'll just try to make some time to do a little exercising. I gained alot of the weight very early the doctor told me around 30 wks that i should start watching what i eat stay away from sweet and salty. So I did and havent been gaining as much towards the end. Doctor also said baby is about 7 lbs she expects she will be an above average size baby

I went from 130 to 190 with my first. I was very healthy and so was my baby. I was able to lose it all and then some.  Don't worry to much. As long as you are eating healthy (mostly :) ) you will be fine.

I am 40+4 and have gained about 40 pounds. Of course, if you count the 15 pounds I LOST on the 1st trimester, I've really gained 65!!!!!!! A little in my but and thighs, and little in my hips and mostly in my belly. I have had a hard time being active due to my back pain though.

I'm.35 weeks and have gained just about that in pounds lol, like 31lbs. I'm not complaining, the only place it went besides my belly is my boobs and butt, yay!! And my stomach is hard as a rock. Every one thinks I'm lying when I tell them how much I've gained. I was only 115lbs at 7 weeks and 5ft 4in tall. I plan to keep 10lbs on actually. Don't stress , your not alone, as long as your heathy baby is healthy. Just know that you have work to do afterwards if you choose!!

I gained 60 pounds by the end of my pregnancy. By the time I left the hospital (2 days after giving birth) I had already lost 25 pounds. My baby is 3 months and I have been breast feeding and haven't exercised or been dieting and I only have about 15 pounds to go until I am at pre baby weight. So its not too bad trying to lose it!
