best pregnancy weight gain chart!

I have been trying not to go overboard and let my appetite lead me, and all the weight gain charts I have seen made me think I have gained a lot less than I should have by now. However, this one is really accurate (only off by 2 lbs!) because it takes your height into consideration, which most of them don't. Now I feel completely normal. Chat Icon Not like I cared because weighing less is never a bad thing, but still thought I would share.

Re: best pregnancy weight gain chart!

ohmigod, I misread the chart at first and thought the weight column was cumulative and not for each week!! I thought I should only have gained 1.7 lbs by now and completely freaked out!!

Phew! Good thing I realized it was # of lbs gained each week.

Wow, I'm at the maximum now, though I'm hoping I don't gain much more over the next couple weeks.

Re: best pregnancy weight gain chart!

according to that I am 8 lbs behind what I should be for the minimum row...Im only at the weight I should have been at about 26wks and I am 34 tomorrow...I am sure it is accurate though because my doc says im not really "packing on the pounds"

This chart says 35 pounds total is the max- it's bogus.

eta- I am 10 pounds from my 40 week max.

Re: best pregnancy weight gain chart!

Sweet Jebus, thanks for this chart. It makes me feel like I'm gaining normally (though towards the max end of things). However, I highly doubt that I'll gain only 35 lbs. with this pregnancy. My realistic estimate is more like 40 lbs.

I'm over the maximum weight by one pound for 40 weeks. I'm 31 weeks tomorrow...what are the chances that I can lose 7 pounds in the next 2 months? Chat Icon

Re: best pregnancy weight gain chart!

I'm trying not to worry too much about this b/c I know this is going to be a 40-50lb gain. I haven't weighed myself since my last appt. but know I was up 15lbs at 19wks - not good. Oh well.

Okay I am fired. I thought it would help a lot because it asks your height. ALL the other charts out there say I should weigh a lot more, but this one didn't, so I thought it was more accurate. Didn't mean to send PGs onto the window ledge. Chat Icon

Re: best pregnancy weight gain chart!

The chart says i am at the max for 30 weeks. My dr actually said I should at this point have gained a little more. Thanks for trying to help! I think most of us would like to see one that says we should weigh more then less!!!! Chat Icon
