    I gained 9kg. In the last week or so, I started to lose a little bit which my ob said was normal.

    I've put on 9kgs so far (into week 38 now). I knew I could stand to gain less because I carried a bit extra in the beginning, but I got worried that in the last 6 weeks I haven't gained a thing. I mentioned it to my Doctor though and he's really happy with my weight. Fundal height is still going steady, there's lots of movement, so as long as everything is good and healthy the numbers don't really mean much! So I guess as bubs gains a bit, I'm losing a bit somewhere else - sounds good to me!

    I've put on 17 kg and lost it all within weeks of DS arriving as I often forgot to eat It was all belly and baby for me, I didn't put on the weight anywhere else. Now I'm trying to put the weight back on and get to pre pg weight so I am as healthy as I can be before we start treatment again.

    I put on 9 kgs but had lost it all by the time he was a couple of months old...then lost another 9kgs (putting it down to bfing). Not so great when I was a size 6-8 to start with! On the plus side, I have gained 1kg in the last few weeks, so hoping to gain a little bit more when I stop bfing! I found I went through 'growth spurts' where I'd gain heaps at once, then hardly anything for a while...
