For moms who gained very little weight during their pregnancy....

Especially those that were average weight to begin with - how much weight did you gain, how much did your baby weigh, and did it affect your baby in any way?

I am still worried that I'm not gaining any weight and still having difficulty keeping food down - I need some reassurance from those who have been in the same boat!

TIA!!!!

For the Maddie, I gained very little weight. She was 7lb, 12oz. When you're pregnant, the body gives to the baby first and then you.

I am overweight, but I only gained 2.5 lbs and my little boy was 7 lbs 14 oz. Between my 12 week and 20 week scans, I had lost 7 lbs!

I would agree that your body does give to the baby first! I threw up everyday also, but first thing in the morning!

I gained 22 lbs and I was avg to begin with. DD was 7 lbs 10oz and the drs had no worries throughout the PG. There were days I just didn't want to eat much more than a yogurt and granola bar.

A friend of mine gained all of 15 lbs...was VERY sick for most of her PG...couldn't tolerate food and her baby was fine!

Re: For moms who gained very little weight during their pregnancy....

Well I'm not average. A little on the heavier side, but with Christopher, I gained 15 lbs. He weighed 6 lbs 8 oz and was perfectly healthy. With Kaylee I gained 5 lbs (actually lost weight the first two trimesters of the pregnancy), and she weighted 6 lbs 7 oz and was perfectly healthy.

Yes. I don't know the actual amount I gained but by 8 or 9 months, I had only gained 8lbs. Don't get me wrong - I still looked pregnant - I just looked thinner & very pregnant.
