Weight gain....

[Swheeler925]

What did your dr recommend for your weight gain during your pregnancy and how much have you gained thus far?

I don't know how much I've gained since the beginning (i dont know how much i weighted before) but in the last 2 months ive gained 1 kg and the doc says its fine

I think you're right on target! :)

My Dr. recommended 25-35 lbs.  I am 22 wks today and have gained 5-7 lbs.  Everything I have read says 10-15 lbs. at this stage.  Everything has been normal and my Dr. doesn't seem concerned.  With my first I gained 40 lbs. and I expect this pregnancy to be less at this rate.  I think every pregnancy is different.

Mine didn't either but with my first I lost 12 ponds the first 6 months then gained like 6 pounds the last few months...this time I am 20weeks and 4 days and I lost 4 lbs at the last checkup and when I went back Monday I gained 2 lbs back so I an actually 2 lbs lighter

My dr wants me to gain between 11 &20 due to still falling in the obese category when I got prego. I am flucuating between 5 & 6 lbs right now and I'm 20 weeks exactly.

My doctor hasn't said anything about recommended weight gain, but he told me I'm right on target, I've gained 5-6lbs so far, and I'm 20 weeks, You're supposed to gain between 25-35 during your entire pregnancy, and A LOT of that is gained at the end!
