weight gain

I know there have been posts about this before, but...

How much weight did you gain during your pregnancy? I am 20 weeks and have gained 5 pounds. I eat 3 meals a day and snacka in the afternoon and in the evening. I'm sure the weight will catch up with me soon. Just want to make sure I am eating enough. I was just at the doctor 3 days ago and he didn't say anything about it.

Re: weight gain

when i was at 20 weeks i had gained 10 pounds. i am now at 26 1/2 weeks and have gained a total of 19 lbs. Dont worry everyone is different. I am sure your Dr. would of mentioned it to you if there was a concern.

Re: weight gain

I am almost at 25 weeks and I've gained about 7 pounds. The doctor is very happy with my weight gain and says its great that I haven't gained a lot. If your doctor isn't saying anything about it I wouldn't be overly concerned. At 20 weeks I had only gained about 5 pounds also. It adds up over time and before you know it you'll be adding on the pounds.

I'm 10 weeks too and I've gained 5 lbs and I think it's the same thing - especially with all the wedding planning before and running after Jordan I was more likely to forget to eat, now I make sure I eat or else I get nauseous.
