when i was weighed at 8 weeks and then 12/14 id lost half a kg (woohoo! lol)..
then at my next appt i think i was weighed and id put on 5 kgs so i was around the 20 week mark..
i didnt feel like id put on any weight, as my clothes still fit me like normal!! im blaming easter/chocolate
now im 24 weeks my appt is today and i so curious to see what i weigh now!
my clothes still fit, just a bit tight around the tummy, which i just push them down low and wear a belly band thing! i feel and look like im all belly..
OK I'm not the best example. I hadn't put on ANY weight until I was past 20 weeks....
...and then I put on 36kilos.
Don't do that... it should be easy enough so long as you don't eat an entire jar of nutella every couple of days Keep a healthy diet for yourself, plus an additional small meal if you need it, and continue with some movement (some call it exercise, I probably would've been fine had I have moved at all). Don't think of the weight... think of the nutrients for you and bubs x
I've gained 20kgs so far and I'm hoping not to gain too much more although I have steadily gained the whole time and show no signs of slowing down!!!! Eek!
I put on 22 kilos all up, most of it came on in the last trimester. It was all belly & baby, I ate healthy and exercised throughout all my pregnancy. 2 weeks after birth I'd lost over half of it, a month later it was all gone ^^ So if your keeping a healthy diet & are doing a bit of exercise, I wouldnt overly stress about the numbers
Since my first ob weigh in I have put on 18.5kg (around 9 weeks), but it is 23kg since just before I got pg.
The ob isn't concerned. It is hard not to worry about the numbers, even though I don't feel overly huge and I know that the weight comes off fairly easily after I have the bubs. I put on 27kg with DS1, only 15kg with DS2. Both times the weight was completely gone around 3 months post baby.
I was very lucky as with both my pregnancies as I was all baby and never put weigh on my body.
With DD I out on 6kg's and with the twins I put on 11kg's. I walked out of hospital with DD being lighter than I was pre pregnancy and I weigh myself yesterday - twins 11 days old - and I am also weighing less than I was before I was pregnant with them.
So far I've lost 2kg. But my Dr doesn't want me to put any on at all, in fact he says he'd be quite happy if I lost a bit during this pregnancy (I am unfortunately quite overweight at present).
With DD I put on a total of 9kg and lost it all pretty quickly, so I'm hopeful that I'll be ok this time around.
I put on all up about 6kgs but most of that was in the first tri b/c I just ate whatever I wanted. I then got sensible and must have lost some or stayed the same.
