At 20 weeks I had put on about 10kg's and I have now put on around 20 I'd say, I might weigh myself again on Tuesday. I don't actually 'feel' that huge which is strange although I know all the weight is on my butt and thighs! as well as my belly of course! I have not been weighed at any of my OB or midwife visits which I think is wonderful because if they aren't focusing on it then it makes me feel pretty relaxed about the whole thing. I anticipate that heaps will fall off after bubs is born and I'm breast feeding and when that starts to slow down I will start focusing on loosing the rest. Don't stress about it, it's the one time in a womans life when she can feel 10% sexy and glowing and beautiful while carrying a bit of weight around
If you OB is not concerned then its fine. Everyone is different love
I put on 9kgs just before I hit the 20 weeks mark and I am no skinny minny and Doc said it was a little more than normal but said that everyone puts it on differently. I think in my case it was end of 1st Trimester and start of Second Trimester I gained the most.
enjoy, pregnancy is about enjoyment. you would know if you werent being "good" to your body and babyTreats are not harmful, but fun! thinking back now, i gained 13kgs by 13 weeks and 18 kgs all up in the end (size 10-16!).......and am paying the price now!!!! ive still got 10 kg to go, but i'll get there. BTW: Breastfeeding did nothing for my waistline!
Happy 19 weeks to go for you!!!!
