  With my son I gained all not weight the last 6 weeks! I'm talking 4+lbs a week lol mostly due to the only thing I could keep down was cheese sticks lol so it'll all come at the end probably!

  Last time, I lost 25 lbs before 20 weeks and from 20 to 40 weeks, I gained 24 lbs back. You gain the most weight third trimester, but a good chunk of it is baby, so as long as you gain less than 25 lbs from here out, you could end up weighing the same or less than you weighed prepregnancy when you leave the hospital. I weighed 181 when I got pregnant last time and left the hospital weighing 145. I wish I had kept it off though.

  I'm at 28 +2 and seems like I just started gaining. I'm still down 3 lbs from the weight I lost in first trimester, but Dr saw I was up since last visit and said, "Yeay! You gained some weight!" Since the baby gains the most in third and blood volume increases too, I think you'll probably see some increase in the next month or so.
  So I thought of you this week. My girlfriend came back from CA w a bib that was black and white w skull and crossbones that said, "Yo Ho Ho and a bottle of Milk!"

  Oh yeah. And like Gatorbob said, the swelling and puffiness...my arms and feet/ ankles feel like the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man. That has gotta be a couple pounds.

  So far I gained the most from the beginning up until 25 weeks. I was up 15lbs at 25 wks. Since then I've only gained 5 more and I'm 35 weeks on tues. I was a little heavy to begin with so that might be why. They say you gain a lot towards the end but my stomach is so squished that I'm eating less than before so we'll see lol

  I gained the most my first trimester I went way overboard lol 20 lbs in 4 months went from 147 to 167....5'8 btw...now im 37 weeks and up 37lbs total so I stay around 185. My weight gain has slowed but I pay attention to what I eat now. From 30 to 37 weeks I have gained 5lbs:) im happy with my weight gain and I feel great:)

  I was only gaining like 2lbs/mo. b4 I hit 3rd trimester. But now I'm 32 wks and gained about 7lbs in a few wks. They say in last trimester you gain like a 1/2lb per wk. That's a lot!! Lol that also depends on ur body and starting your weight though.

  I gained the most between 21 and 25 weeks. I gained 9lbs that month, but since then I have only gained 2.5lbs. I wil be 30wks on tues. I think she had a major growth spurt, cause I was hungry 24/7. That has eased up some and she went from 15oz at 22wks to 2lbs 13oz at 28wks

  I think I gained the most weight in my second trimester when I went on a crazy ice cream binge. I craved it so bad and I'd have some every day.
