So, I went to my 28 week check up and found out that I gained 7 lbs since my last check up! I'm so surprised because my eating habits haven't changed. So I'm now at a total weight gain of 14 lbs. Anyone else have a weight gain like that? And how much have you guys gained now?

    Me! I gained 6 pounds in 3 weeks when I went for my 32 week check up this Monday, in total I've gained 33 pounds... I use to weigh 100:(

    Girl don't stress. With my 1st I gained 5lbs in one week without changing my eating habits! When it comes on for no reason its usually because the baby has grown!! :)

    Also 14lbs for being 28weeks isn't bad! The healthy weight gain is 11-16lbs by the end of the 2nd trimester!!

    It's pretty normal. Babies have a major growth spurt between 17-20 weeks and 27-30 weeks. No worries, Momma! I'm 30+4 and up 15 lbs, but, I gained 7 lbs between 17-20 weeks and 6 lbs between 27-29 weeks.

    Pft! I'm gaining anywhere between 3-5 lbs a WEEK! On a low fat, low carb diet! I started at 135 and I will hit at least 200lbs by the time I deliver!

    U haven't gained that much, I'm extatic cuz I have only gained 28 and I'm 36 weeks. But at this point with my last one, I had gained almost 50.

    Thanks Ladies. You all made me feel so much better :)

    @kristaf22 Did you even notice the 8 lbs you gained? Because to me I don't look no bigger. lol

    @marabel Wow. You were so tiny. I started off at 132 but I'm sure you will lose it all.

    @eaparker You did really good the first 37 weeks & are you having swelling all over?

    @pnsw524 I hope it's all the baby growing! lol

    @nameless That isn't that bad. I rather gained 4lbs for the whole month instead of 7lbs.

    @Soon2BMomOf2under2 Really. I didn't gain too much from 17-20 weeks. But I completely believe you on 27-30 weeks ; )

    @kcike812 You are doing good. My goal is no more than 35 lbs but you are almost done. So I wouldn't worry at all.

    @MommySierra Did it surprise you when you found out? Because I really don't feel like I look bigger?

    @sunshinelove Really. Can you see the weight that you put on or is it not noticealbe? And when are you due?

    @Steph_Due_101611 How many weeks are you? And how much weight have you gained all together?

    @charlotteb Thanks. You made me feel good but I know that I'm really gonna start growing now that I'm in the last trimester. And that's really good because you are almost done. Are you having a different gender from your last pregnacy?

    Im in Australian so working on kilos i have gained 10kg between week 16 and 32... Converting that to pounds its 22... That sounds way worse lol but im hoping to gain no more than another 10lbs this pregnancy or it will be hard to loose like it was with my first pregnancy...
    But you really will be surprised post delivery how fast the first part comes off, between the baby, placenta, fluids and living on hospital food for a few days I lost about 20lbs within days of delivery first time round

    I just gained 7 lbs this last month... I was doing great until literally two days before my appointment it just came out of nowhere!!! My doctor didnt say anything about it lol I guess us preglys have our good months and our bad months! This whole pregnacy thing can be quite stressful!

  • charlottebcharlotteb
    This is my 3rd boy. But it was hot as heck this time, didn't have much appetite. People have to make me eat cuz I'm so hot all the time that nothing sounds good.
  • charlottebcharlotteb
    @Mommy2b1111 tell them to f-off. That isn't bad at all. Unless u gained more than 4 lbs n a week there isn't any reason to worry. That kind of weight gain could b a signal of pre-eclampsia. And its usually water retention, not diet. It was prolly just ur spurt. Most of is have one.
  • mschopmschop
    I gained 5 pounds in 2 weeks at my appointment today I'm 31+3 and before this one I had only gained 2 pounds. I felt that I was bigger though
