Weight Gain?

Question

If people don't mind sharing I'm curious to see how other pregnancies have gone. If you are a FtM how much weight have you gained and where are you? I am 39 weeks today and due on Christmas! I have gained 8 pounds all in my stomach, I am not skinny and was not skinny before I got pregnant but my doctor said I should've gained a little more. What has everyone else gone through? I had two surgeries while pregnant so it's been super rough for me!

Im 39 weeks and only gained 4 pounds. I wasn't "skinny" before I got pregnant and im huge now. I dont see how ive only gained 4 pounds but doctor tells me I should weigh less and look smaller than I did before I got pregnant after I have him. My doctor is very happy with my weight. I was 199 before. Im just a thick person I wasn't fat or anything and now I weigh 203.

Thanks for sharing all! I'm considered overweight but not obese I just wasn't sure what was really healthy. At the beginning of my pregnancy my doctor said no more than 25 pounds to gain!

Hi, I'm also due Christmas Day and I can't wait! 

I was a bit overweight before pregnancy- I lost 37 lbs due to morning sickness and am still not to my pre-weight. My doctor was not concerned with the weight loss, but she had also recommended that if I had gained weight, no more than about 12 lbs.
