hey there - I lost nearly 10kg in my first trimester and it's only in the last 8 weeks or so since I've developed a ravenous appetite that I've put on about 8kg.
I think your fine but if your worried have a chat to your MW
Well if you really want you can have some of my weight I've put on 17kg's. I am 5'6" and weighed 50kg when i fell pg so was underweight if anything. As long as you are eating good foods and drinking loads of water your baby will be fine.
You are normal, normal, normal and normal.
I am 15 weeks and only put on a kilo. As long as you are eating well and drinking lots of water, all should be OK.
Same as tiggerlinda, I put on more doing IVF and Clomid......
Though my GP said that since I have hormone issues, I will probably find that I won't put on much weight, as my body goes back to normal levels when pregnant....
I put on 4kgs last pregnancy.... DS weighed over 4kgs. LOL
I am bigger though, and my appetite went down, so I wasn't eating and I was sick everyday until after giving birth. I don't think it's a huge issue, as long as everything else is going well, that you are eating well, and that you feel fine.
You should consider yourself Lucky... I have heard of some people who gain a Tonne during pregnancy.
i had a gf who put 30kg on during whole 1st preg. but think it might have had to do with her maccas obsession.
also a lot of the people at work keep looking at my belly (and asking again how far along i am) - makes me think they think i'm having a phantom pregnancy
It's rather concerning when you read all these books that tell you how your pregnancy should be. Each pregnancy and woman is different so i cant see how a book can tell you what should happen, you know? I put on 30kgs in first pregnancy, 10kgs in second. This time however i'm 28 weeks and in first tri i lost 5-6kgs and i still havent gained any back so if probably lost more than that. I can see i have lost weight in my face, arms and bum but i know bub is fine cause i have a huge belly!
As long as u are eating healthy, i wouldnt worry too much about it - i only put on 5.6kgs with my pregnancy and my OB was not at all worried.
Enjoy it while it last - cause who knows in the last trimester u may put on HEAPS!!!!
