8 lbs in 4 weeks!!!!! I don't have a clue how I gained so much....I haven't been THAT bad! I'm waiting for the Dr now. ..I think I'm going to get yelled @!
When I wdnt in for my 20wk appointment I had gained 8 lbs in 4 wks and my dr wasnt too happy, but I've onlu gained 4 since... And im not eating any differently... Funny how our bodiea work Gl!
Ugh i had been loosing weight and that was fine as im over weight. But i gained 7 lbs in a week. Wtf? I havent changed how i eat or nything. I told the dr this and he said it just happens sometimes :-/
Im in the same boat! Had my 23wk appt tuesday & I gained 11 lbs in 4 wks! I was so shocked, im really small to begin with. But dr said just not to get used to gaining so much in a month ; )
I agree with @gatorbob about a growth spurt probably being normal around 20 wks or so.
At my 18 wk appt I was finally back at my pre-pregnancy weight. At my 22 wk appt I'd gained 7 lbs! My doctor told me to eat healthy (I was pretty much doing that already) and drink more water. She prefers I only gain 1/2 lb or a 1 lb a week, so 7 lbs in 4 weeks was a bit much. But I don't think I did much to contribute to that weight gain. I think it was belly!
And I'm not that big of a girl in the first place. I was on the top end of normal BMI for my height.
