Poll- How much weight have you gained?

[mamasmith]

I love polls! 

I have gained about 10-12 lbs and I'm 19 weeks.  It's mostly in my belly, but I've noticed my thighs are larger too (awesome!).

I'm 21 weeks and I've gained 20 lbs.

[Narleegates]

I've gained 5-10 depending on the time, the day, and the bloat :P

I try not to weigh between appointments.  I don't like it.  I know it's good "weight gain" but I still don't like it.  I'm 17 weeks and I'm up about 10 pounds without actually weighing myself.  Most of the weight in in my gut BLEH! and I have some newly added pounds in my hips and thighs as well.

What's a girl to do but grow her baby healthy.  OH well.  Looks like I will have my work cut out for me after the babe arrives. 

I at least won't be like the woman who lives across the street from me.  She was in the gym the day after she had her baby.  YIKES!

I fall into the obese category and have gained 9 Ibs (I am 19 weeks) - I probably should havegained less but since my m/s disappeared I have a huge appetite.

19lbs. at 21 weeks

I'll be 19 weeks today and I've gained 26 lbs.  That is from the very beginning because I was weighing myself daily then (on a diet).  From my first weigh in at the doctor's office, I've gained 17 lbs.  It annoys me because I just lost 35 lbs before I got pregnant and I'm throwing it back on like crazy.

At 19 weeks I gained 15lb. I am 21 weeks now and my scale says I have only gained another pound but I bet you the scale at the OB's office will say I gained more. Always does. I tend to gain about 10 lb. my first trimester because the only thing that keeps me from throwing up is food.

I'm 19w, 5d and I haven't gained any weight so far. I still have daily morning sickness, but I do try to eat as much as I can. I started out heavier too, so maybe that's one reason why I'm not gaining.

[mamahen2coop]

I'm 17.2 and according to MY scale, naked, first thing in the morning, I've gained 6 lbs.  According to the MD scale I've gained 9. Baby bump is getting bigger but so are my hips/love handles area.

I am 18 weeks and have gained 3 lbs. It is coming though. I did the same thing with DS, I gained like nothing at first and then packed on 40 lbs in 20 weeks. Super awesome.

I'm 19 weeks today and I've gained 12-14 lbs.  I'm overweight already and I've been trying not to let it bother me but It's making me kinda depressed.  I had DH take a belly pic of me yesterday and deleted it immediately because I felt like a whale.  My belly seems to be getting most of the weight but it always has so it doesn't make me feel any better.  First trimester I had m/s and the only thing that helped was constantly eating and the only thing that sounded good was bread and cheese.  I'm calling the extra flab my cheese layer.  I haven't felt like exercising since the pregnancy either.  First trimester I was too pukey and tired and now I'm just lazy.  I'm blaming all the snow and gloom, I prefer to get my exercise outdoors.  By the time it's nice out though I'll be too big to want to do anything.  It's a vicious cycle!

Me too. I'm up .5 and I know the weight is coming!

[artekah]

I'll be 19 weeks tomorrow (omg, that sounds so far along!) and I've gained about 7 pounds. I lost some weight in the first tri then gained it back.

I was a bit worried that I wasn't gaining enough but my midwife says it's fine. By this time in my last pregnancy I had already gained 20 pounds probably, which turned into 60+ by the time I had the baby, so I'm glad the weight gain seems to be slower this time around--I hope I'll gain just the right amount this time because carrying that extra 60 pounds was really really hard on my body!

I am 17wks 4days and have gained about 3 pounds.  I am not sick anymore, but also just not that hungry.  Very different from my last pregnancy.  So far the baby is healthy and growing so I guess it is ok.

[tourist.]

I've gained 8 lbs so far (at 19w).  I started out on the verge below weight so the focus has really been for me to gain, especially since I only gained 2 pounds at 14w.  Unfortunately, I think I'm one of those 3rd trimester marathon gainers so hopefully I don't get too big.  I know that most of the weight I gain at the end is water so at least some of it will go away easily. 

[Mama Metis]

I've gained 11 pounds at 21 weeks. Started off average weight. 

[ebegreen]

I'm 20 weeks. I started off at a normal weight for me and so far I've gained about 7 LBs. 

I have not been weighing myself between appointments. My midwife said it's totally optional if I want to be weighed each time.  Which is nice because I think when I get towards the end I'll be dreading the scale.

I feel like my belly just busted out in the last 2 weeks or so.  It is bothering me that I wont be able to zip my pants up for another 6 months or more.  Ha ha.

I'm 19 weeks and I'm not positive how much I've gained. I didn't weigh myself until about 12 weeks... but I didn't gain much then either as my pants still fit until about 10 weeks :) I think I was 165-170 pre-pregnancy?

Since then I've went from 170-175ish to 182.
