Ok girls, its NORMAL AND RECOMMENDED to gain between 25-35 pounds if you are of a healthy pre pregnancy weight! Don't look at what others have gained on here because you have no idea whether they were 5'6 and 100 pounds or 5'6 and 190 before they got pregnant! I typically avoid these posts because those that haven't gained anything boast about it and those who may have gained more than they feel comfortable with are left feeling fatter than when they started the post! You are doing just fine @momof22b! I'm sure you look so beautiful! With 15 weeks left, you will probably be right around 35 pounds at delivery and will lose about 15 before you come home! No worries, the idea is a healthy baby and you are doing great sorry so long, I just get hormonal at these posts lol
It seems like everyone is doing well my doc wanted me to only gain 15-20 lbs the whole pregnancy and I've already done that she wants me to stop gaining at all so I have a gym membership but because of the grinding I have to do water aerobics witch also sucks because the class is twice a week and $5 a class & that's on top of my gym membership I'm scared because I was already overweight to begin with and I lost 35 lbs before I got pregnant it was hard I just hope I can do it again @lmelanson@marabel@blackbarbie10@kailiasmomma05@murphy89@survivormommie3@gatotbob@denois@5lilangels@starrxoxo9@mommy2isaiahngiselle@lilpeapod913@lae3@novbaby
I was overweight for my height before I got pregnant too. At the beginning I was 156 now I'm 171 but I'm only 5'1". I'll admit I've really only gained a belly and a bigger butt but I only wanted to gain 15-20 too. I have 3 months left so we'll see what happens. I think as long as your moderately exercising and eating ok your body will gain what it needs. I look at the breakdown of weight gain too when I'm feeling bad and it reminds me that I'm not just piling on pounds of fat. Don't stress, just do the best you can that being said, I'm going to eat a pudding cup lol
We've been waiting to adopt for 20 mnths now and I've gained about 20 lbs. One thing has nothing to do with the other in our situation but i am more than happy to to pretend it does to fit in here
