I am at 19weeks and up a total of 21lbs, that is what I planned to gain the entire pregnancy.... I will just do my best to eat healthier and not gain too much more but enough to keep baby growing
I was at the high end of "normal" for weight/bmi for my height but am already worried that I am gaining too much I wanted to gain 10 lbs at 20 weeks and I have already gained 16 lbs at 18 weeks....uggg. I started exercising again (moderately - 30 min. walking, 4-5 times a week) and am trying to make healthy choices but I must be eating too many calories. I didn't want to count calories during my pregnancy but I think I might have to.
Thanks! It's been a lot of up and down...I really don't know how I haven't gained a ton, I feel like i'm eating nonstop and making some not so healthy choices sometimes (though I do crave salads so I'll eat an entire bag of salad in 2 sittings) BUT I'm also happy it isn't the almost 80lbs I gained with DS1 at the same time!
I hope you don't mind me jumping in. I really do need to keep track of this weight!
PP: 175ish
12 wks: 183.2
Total: +8.2
Thankfully I am eating a lot better and my cravings have pretty much gone away so weight gain should not be so fast from now on!! 8 lbs is awful for the first trimester.
