Weight gain??
Okay so I'm 20 weeks 5 days and I've gained 11.8 pounds since being pregnant. I was around 137 pre pregnancy and am now 151. Is this a normal amount of weight gain and how much more weight is normal??? I feel like I've gained so much since some women don't gain any.
I wasn't gaining much weight at the first 20 weeks at all, maybe 4lb but my doctor is cool with it. I will gain plenty during the last two months and she only want me to gain about 25 in total anyway. I did manage to ballon up in the last few weeks and had gain 10lb now at 27weeks. As long as you're eating healty and taking your prenatal vitmines, then you have nothing to worry about. The weight is just a number and really got nothing to with the baby's birth weight. I know woman who gain 70lb and gave birth to a 5lb baby,
Hmmm... Don't know if my comment posted but I'm 37 weeks and only gain 9.6 pounds!
Im due august 15th and I have gained 20 lbs. Yeah I had to wait for my medicade to kick in before I could be seen by a private doctor. (The health department in my area isn't really equipped for pregnancy )
The amount you have gained is normal. At this time the baby is only a small portion of the weight gain...mist weight gain is due to your uterus expanding and the placenta sack.....in the next few months you will most likely gain another 10lbs or so due to baby weight and the amnioc fluid that surrounding the baby! All is normal! Most woman gain 20-30lb during pregnancy. Best of luck and Congrats on your bundle of joy!
I have been waiting 3 months just to be seen by a private doctor because I refuse to go to the health department. The ones in Florida are horrible!
Yea I have 2 girls n I honestly hate having to do their hair I don't even like doing mine. Lol..
Medicade must vary greatly state to state.... I was seen at 5, 8 ,11, and ect. With medicade. My 5wk appointment i wasn't even approved yet.
Nit sure I haven't seen a doctor yet.. the pleasures of having Medicaid. Lol. Its more then likely a boy though. Different belly from my first two
We're due around the same time its normal you should have gainer 10-15 lbs by now.. I haven't gained anything and I keep getting grilled by the doctors. If you want you can friend me whens ur exact due date?
