Weight Gain

I feel like I'm breaking records with weight gain for a singleton... I know this can be an embarassing question for some, but anyone feel like sharing what you have gained for your singleton pregnancy??

So far, I am over 30 lbs. I don't have an exact number because I decided to stand backwards on the scale last visit... Too nervous to look. I have 6+ weeks left.... With the twins I gained 50.

Thanks for sharing!

 

I think I gained about 45 lbs and I've lost all but 5-7 lbs of it. I'm fine with that. I gained 90 with the twins so that was a piece of cake.

 

I've gained around 18 so far, I think. With the twins I gained 55 and lost it all so I'm not too stressed about it this time. I don't look at the scale when I get weighed while pregnant...don't want to know the concrete number. I have weight issues as it is so I'm better off if I'm somewhat oblivious.

 

I gained more with my daughter than I did with my twins - almost 60 with DD and only 45-50 with the twins. Don't worry - I lost every bit of it afterwards (with the help of breastfeeding)! So far I'm right at 20 with this one but it LOOKS like 50!

 

With the boys I lost 20 then gained my 20 back plus another 20. They counted it as only a 20 lbs weight gain.

So far this pregnancy I lost 7 but Im sure its more then that now.

 

I gained 24 lbs by 28 weeks... :icon_eek: That's a ton of weight for one baby!!

 

I gained 40 with Olivia...didn't gain much after about 32 weeks with her though...it was mostly early on. I am almost 4 months pp and have lost all but 10 of those lbs. I gained 65 with the twins in the short 34 weeks I was pregnant with them.

 

I just was weighed and it more like 24 lbs at 30 weeks...

 

I gained 14 pounds with Mikiah and 38 with my twins. I am now weigh 5 pounds less than I did before getting pregnant!!

You lucky dawg!!!

 

I am 37.5 wks today with twins [first pregnancy] and I've gained 68 lbs so far. One more week to go until I see my little girls!! Ya-y! :yahoo:

 

I have gained 13 so far...but I started out on the "fluffy side"!

 

I've only gained 12lbs. so far. I gained 70 with the twins and was still 15-20lbs. over when I got pregnant this time... I've been losing and gaining at the same time this pregnancy if that makes sense. I've been losing old baby fat, but gaining new baby weight, so I've pretty much evened out. According to my calculations, I've got a net gain of 30-35lbs. from my pre-pre pregnancy weight (pre-twins)

Haven't gained much of any weight since about 31-32 weeks and I'm 37.5 now.

 

I gained 37 pounds with my twins (who were born just short of 35 weeks). I'm 28 weeks along now and have gained about 20 pounds so far.

 

5lbs from the very beginning, everyone comments wow your belly has grown, but the scale just doesn't move, maybe I'll be one of those girls who gains it at the end.

 

This time I have gained 40 1/2 lbs! I gained 37 with DD and lost it all and then some (nursing helps a lot!) I only gained 47 with the twins, but I was on bed rest and not finishing anyone elses mac and cheese and chicken nuggets!!! Don't worry, you will lose it!

Now I feel REALLY awful. I've gained 40 pounds with this baby. I was 50 pounds lighter when I got pregnant this time so now I look they way I got pregnant with my boys. With them I gained 55 pounds.

 

[SIZE=12pt]I only gained 17 lbs with the twins. Right now I've gained about 3-4 lbs. I have a feeling I'm going to gain A LOT with this singleton. After I delivered the twins I lost 37 lbs and then another 20 while bfing. I hope I lose as much with this one, but I'm getting scared because I feel like I've gained A LOT this week.

With Dax, I gained 40 by the end. A lot of that was in the last trimester. With this pregnancy, I'm probably up about 5-8 lbs so far. With the twins I gained 75-80 lbs.

I have to clarify that with I (still) have pretty bad morning sickness and I barely eat plus I walk a ton and chase my kids around... for that lifestyle its a lot and I was expecting to not gain much. With my first DS I gained nearly 60 lbs and 65 lbs with the twinks. I started out 10 lbs overweight this time, well 10 lbs over my twin pre-pregnancy weight and 20 lbs over my normal weight.

 

I gained I think like 55 with the twins and lost all of it plus some right after their birth but then I gained it all back. With Zackary I only gained about 2 lbs.

 

As of right now, I am 1.2 lbs less than when I first went in (I am 25w4d now and was 11w3d when I first went to the OB)...BUT I did have m/s for the first 16 weeks and was not able to eat a whole lot...so the Dr says that I should start gaining weight here pretty soon! I told her that I dunno how I haven't been gaining already...I have been eating like a horse!! She told me that Megan is growing well and that as long as I keep gaining from here I should be OK.

I sooo hope I am able to do taht this time around!! I only gained 18 lbs with Grant and lost most (if not all) of the weigth within the first 9 months after he was born b/c I was bf'ing. I gained 58 with the twins (most of that was fluid b/c of my pre-e) and lost all but abt 10-15 lbs of it.
