Pre Pregnancy Weight

[doogskat]

Hey everyone...just wanted to get some opinion about my weight gain. I am 18 weeks pregnant and just starting to show. I have not been gaining any weight lately; but I am kind of confused about what my pre pregnancy weight was. Sounds silly, but I got pregnant on my honeymoon and had lost 10 -12 pounds right before the wedding (thank you stress). So I am back up to 120 which is my normal weight. So does that mean I haven't gained anything because this is my normal weight!?! Any thoughts would help, Thanks!!!

Thanks!!! I have an appointment with the Doc on the 22nd which will ease my concerns. This is my first pregnancy and you hear horror stories from all these people; like my friend who was about 20 weeks and had no idea she miscarried until her next Dr. Appt! I am sure im overworrying, thanks again :-)

I don't know.... by 18 weeks you should have gained some weight, so maybe that weight you regained is baby weight. I too did lose 8 lbs at the beginning (due to nausea) but then regained them. The norm is that you supposedly have to gain one pound per week. But if you gain less, its ok. I'm 28 weeks and have only gained 10lbs so far
