Not at all.
Remember most of that would be baby. They say the average weight gain is like 10-15kgs.
ETA: i lost 10kgs in the first trimester and gained it back plus 8 so 18kgs all together.
I have since lost 10kgs but am 2kgs lighter than what i was before i fell pregnant. Its so confusing LOL
I put on 8kgs,most of that was in the 3rd trimester but I was overweight to start with so figure my body used up some "stores".
Within a week I'd lost 10kgs and I'm was/am 4kgs lighter than pre-pregnancy weight by about 3 weeks post birth.
I'm with 1sttime - it's all so confusing as to what's normal and what's not.
lol hun with DD1 i was 63kgs pre pregnancy and the last time i weighed myself i was 36 weeks pregnant and was 95kg!!!!!!! i dont want to know how much i ended up weighing!!! but after the first week i was back to 75kg, so dont panic!
DD2 i only put on 8kgs though so that was nice
dont worry with both my boys i started out at 45kg's and ended up at 70+kg's! all baby lol, but after i had my boys the wieght changed and went down was back almost normal in a month. congrat not long until your little one is here xxx
I put on 20kg. Did you get bloated with the IVF?
48 to 75kg
55 to 75kg
53 to 75kg lol ... I'm consistent :)
About 10kg of that has been baby, placenta, fluid retention etc and is gone in days. The rest? Lard. I have no idea what I weigh now, I just know that nothing fits :(
I put on about 30kg!!!!
DS was 9lb plus I had ALOT of fluid.
Everybody is different, some people can gain a lot in fluid and some people don't.
baby #1...I put on 7kg
baby#2...I put on 7kg
baby#3...I put on 8kg
baby#4....I put on 7kg
A friend of mine is a tiny size 6/8 and puts on over 20kg during pregnancy, but goes back to her little size 6/8 not too long after.
Don't feel bad... DD I started at 75kg and weighed myself at about 32wks and was 95kg :o
This time round I started at 75kg again, weighed myself at 20wks and was still 75kg!! Benefit if being pg and BF at the same time!
But then weighed myself at 36wks or so and was up around 90kg :(
But 10 days post natal I'm back down to 80kg already... Guess that's what happens when you're carrying an almost 5kg/11lb baby!!!!
I'm with everyone else, it's so dependant on so many things.
I was/am overweight to begin with so I only put on about 8-9kg with both of my babies, and then by the time they were born, I actually weighed less than I did pre pregnancy (mind you that all came back on pretty quickly, lol!) This pg I was/am at my heaviest and I have already put on 5kg. I'm hoping to slow that down, and possibly even not put on too much more by eating a better diet and exercising gently. But I am very overweight.
My girlfriend was tiny before she had her bub, maybe a size 6-8, and by the time she had him, she'd gained 30+kg. Now, about 6 weeks after he was born, she's lost 20kg of that already. It's a very individual thing. Try not to worry too much. You can do what you have to once baby is here. Meanwhile enjoy your last few weeks of being pg!
1st - Had put on 20kgs by 10 days overdue
2nd - 24 kgs by 10days overdue
3rd - 20kgs and counting, with 5 wks to go as well!!
It is amazing how much you 'lose' in the first couple of weeks ;)
That's not bad!! I put on around 21-22kg with each of my boys and put on about about 17kg when pg with DD. The weight all fell off each time :). I have always had a lowish BMI so I think my body likes to make up for it when pg LOL!
I'm 27 weeks and I jumped on the scales this morning for the first time in weeks.
Pre-pregnancy I was 72kgs.....
27 weeks I am 80kgs.
I nearly had heart failure! I suppose its only 8 kgs but I still have 13 weeks left and I have never gone past 86kg with the other 2! Better start eating properly.
:)
I started at 65kgs and I'm 80 now... 5 weeks to go!! 10 of that was in the second trimester, I thought I was going to explode !
Sorry I don't know kilos. I put on 30lbs with PG#1 and 6lbs with PG #2. I have a friend though who put on 100lbs with her first pregnancy!
pg #1 went from 67kg to 80kg
This time I still have 3 weeks to go and have put on between 12 - 15kg already and it is all in my tummy!!!!
I get the impression that for a lot of people, the thinner you are to start with the more you put on. I found some website once that recommended how much you 'should' gain based on your BMI, mine was in the (low) range they recommended a 15+kg gain.:
I put on 20kg with DD1 and 22kg with DD2 - I now weight 2kg less than when I first got pregnant so it does come off :D
i put on 14 kg but lost most of it after birth luckily
i was around 64-65 before and after i had her i was 68.. now im 65 again but this winter weathers testing that weight thats for sure
Up 8kg this pregnancy, started at 60kg and 68kg and 6kg of that has been in the last 8 weeks!
With DD I went from 64-76kg and was 68 post birth :) But I delivered at 33 weeks so no idea what I would have hit had I gone to FT....... Wow almost the same as you BF :) When DD was 12 months I had dropped to 58kg and felt too thin and took me months to get back up to 60kg where I felt comfortable :D
I put on 18kg last time- 60kg to 78kg.
9kg, but that fell of really quicky, plus an additional 5kg too! But I put on about 30kg in the pretty kankles I got just after DD was born, but that was gone before I left the hospital too :P
I put on a whopping 30kgs during my pregnancy (I ate like an idiot, though). Probably 80% of the weight I gained during my middle trimester.
I lost 10kgs in the first week after the birth, though - just bub, fluid etc. The rest I have had to diet off and still have another 10kgs to go.
Your weight gain sounds normal to me and just remember that you can gain a heap of fluid in the last couple of weeks - which you will lose very quickly after bub arrives.
With DD i went from 58 to 68kg
and this time i started at 62 and am now 72kg, due today
so 10kg for both
I was 65 pre pregnant went up to 85, now i weigh 68kg nine weeks after birth. I just started exercising again hoping to lose a couple of kilos. I thought i was going to be huuuuuge after i had bubs but i wasnt, i looked about the same but with a flappy belly haha and ALOT of tiger stripes :-)
I was 60kg before getting pregnant. I got up to 89kg when i last weighed myself at about 39weeks. I lost 14kg of that straight away. so I gained like 16kg :( so devo
I put on 18kg - was 55.4kg when I found out I was pregnant at 4 weeks and then weighed in at 73.4kg the day I had bubby.
I lost 13kg of that during the birth and the few days after it and have 5kg to go - that last 5kg must have been all of the Magnum Egos I ate :p
Sue xxx
Thansk everyone for sharing, it can be a touchy subject
x
I put on like 30kg with DS BUT only 15kg with DDs :)
wow, when i say you had posted in here i was going to say you dont count! you had three in there lol Hope the girls are doing well x:
DD1 - 74kg to 82kg. Went down to 69kg within a week.
DD2 - 66kg to 69kg @ 38 weeks.
Thanks Loula Theyre doing amazing :) Crawling and on solids and just basically getting into everything.
With DS I went mental with that whole 'eating for two' thing but with the girls I ate when I was hungry and didnt cut out any foods really and just listened to my body. Such a difference as you can tell :)
