Weigh in Wednesday!!

[whitlack]

Ok girls.....I have seen them do this on other forums so I thought this might be fun.....or depressing lol!!  What has everyone gained so far?  According to those dreadful scales this morning I have gained 21lb and I am 26.5 weeks.  Make sure to let us know what week you are in too!!!  Feel free not to participate if you don't want to share this with everyone.  Other forums are also doing Motivation Mondays and Fun Fact Fridays.  Just some ways to keep us in touch!!  Hope everyone is doing well. To change the subject... My son turned 2 yesterday which made me greatful to be having another one.  He is so independant now and I look forward to having another baby around soon!!!  Not too much longer girls!!!  And they grow way too quickly.  Kinda depressing!!

well, i am 27 wks and have gained 30lbs - as of my appt last thursday - that sounds like way too much to me, but my dr is not concerned.  i was overweight when i started and have always been a "big girl" (i'm also over 6 ft tall). but i have always been healthy and have good blood pressure, etc - i also passed my 1 hour glucose test - which i was very worried about.....but everything is looking good so far!

I'm exactly 26 weeks today and this morning the doctor weighed me and I've gained 22 lbs.  Apparently 4 in the last 2 weeks.  I also found out that he thinks I had a tear in my placenta and that is what all the bleeding was about. He said I did the right thing going to Labour and Delivery.  Here is hoping that I don't continue to gain 2 lbs per week for the next 14 weeks.... ouch that would be baddddddddd.

i'll be 27 weeks tomorrow, or on saturday(idk which lol), and iwas 168 before i found out, and i am 196 now.....i gained only 1lb from april 22 to may 20...but from june 24 to july 17 i gained 9 pounds!!!

so i am up, what, about 18 pounds? so if i gain another 18, i'll have only gained 36...i hope i don't b/c not to be rude, i've weighed 198 before(in 2005), and couldnt hold that weight, much less if i'm carrying 200lbs due to another human being inside me, causing more pain and issues lol.....but, if i gain it, i keep hearing i'll drop at least 5-10 before i even leave the hosp, from the placenta and such coming out.....

Im 26 weeks tomorrow.  was 91.. now 108.5.. I have another doctors appointment tomorrow to verify my exact weight gain.. but according to my scale that is a gain of. 17 1/2 pounds.  

[aabarnett]

Okay don't get mad because this is actually not a good thing but I lost a bunch of weight (18 1/2 lbs or 20ish depending on the scale but I'm gong with the lesser one) and so far I've only gained back 1/2 a pound so I am still 18 behind as of last Thurs.  I am on a strict diet and nobody can figure out why I'm not gaining.  Sorry, I know that isn't what you want to hear but if it makes it any better, I'm HUGE, I'm about the size I was at delivery with my duaghter and I'm only 27 weeks now and growing by the day.  I even waddle like a penguin, it's depressing >sigh<  

[BTS1022]

I think im still 139 pounds lol, but im sure I have gained a bit in the last 3 weeks. I will find out my new weight tomorrow at my docs appointment.

[eimperati]

im 28 weeks and 4 days and i have gained 30lbs

[stillwaiting52]

I am 27 weeks and have gained 16 pounds, I also gained 10 prior to getting pregnant with fertility meds, so I look at it as thought I have gained 26 so far!

[mumtobe08]

I am 26 weeks and 4 days  and have gained 14 pounds

[Lexima]

I'm also 26w4d and gained approx 13.5lb.
Starting weight 112.5, as of yesterday my home scale showed 126.  I've been gaining about a pound a week since week 14, but weeks 22-24 I wasn't gaining at all.  Now it seems I'm back to 1lb per week.  I wonder what will happen once I hit 3rd trimester on one and a half more weeks go to.

[kazwel]

Hi,

I'm  28w4d and i've gained 6lbs back so far.  I lost a total of 16 before i started gaining, so i guess right now i'm still 10lbs ahead of the game.  But i know that wont last :).  My belly is huge though,  I feel like a cow!!

Last weigh-in, at 24 weeks, I had gained 14 lbs. I know that at 14 weeks I had only gained 4 lbs., so I must have gained a pound a week the previous 10 weeks. I am now 26w2d, and will weigh at my next doctor's appt on Aug. 7th.

I gained about 25 lbs in the year before TTC, and another 5-10 form fertility meds before getting pg, so I am hoping to keep the weight gain to a healthy minimum. I am having twins, so I feel as if these numbers are OK. e shall see in a couple of weeks if I still feel the same!

Oh, and my babies are above average in weight, so that's the most important thing. Henry weighed in at 1lb. 8 oz., and Cadence 1 lb. 7 oz. at 24 weeks. The average for a singleton at that stage is about 1 lb. 5 oz. (according to doc), so I am very happy thery are so robust! By the time I have my next appt. they may weigh close to 3 pounds each!!!!

I'm in my 29th week and have gained 15 lbs so far from day 1.  I cannot believe how fast this pregnancy has gone by.  I feel like I just got pregnant and now the baby will be here in a couple of months.

Any one else feel that way?

[popeyesgirl06]

I've gained 38  pounds and I'm 29 weeks. The doctor doesn't say anything but I know I have gained too much and will struggle after the baby is born.

[tisa1029]

I am 26 weeks. I was 137 before I got pregnant and now I am 145. I have gained 8 lbs so far but now I am eating every couple hours. It seems when I get bored I get hungry. If I went that route I would be well over 200 probably.

[StacyCPHT]

I was 164 and am now at 30weeks 187 so that is 23lbs, I had lost a bit in 2nd half of june though... To avoid weight gain if wanting to eat when bored try freezing grapes, blueberries, or cherries, it is really good and a great way to beat the heat. To gain milkshakes... the frozen fruits is a pre-preg trick of mine and the milkshakes (make your own with the frozen fruits and ice cream) or fruit, yogurt, honey and ice -;Lassies) my mom's recipe the lassies are lowfat but the milkshakes add lots of calcium and are deliscious!

[ramseyh17]

When I went to the doctor last at 25 weeks I had gained 15 pounds but since then I think I have gained another 5  pounds. I will weigh in again on Thursday at my doctors appt. I will update then. I will be 28 weeks on Firday so we will see what the weight gain is then. I don't know if I want to know. LOL I only gained 20lbs with my first and 25 with my second, so I think my third is going to top them all.  :(

Hi girls, I am 28 weeks 1 day and at my last appt had gained 3.5 kilos (7.7 pounds) I had really bad morning sickness and have only started really getting an appetite plus my belly popped out over night (!!) so I am curious to see how much more I have gained since my last appt 2 1/2 weeks ago. Looks like everyone is doing pretty well =]

[ChrisHealy]

I am 27wks 3 dys and have gained 20 lbs.  Glad I'm not the only one around that figure!

[holspowell]

I am 30 wks today and have gained only 7lbs, total. Of course I only gained a total 12 lbs with my son(2005)...we'll see on Wed. what I weigh in at!
