How much weight dd you gain?

I'm scared

I'm overweight already so I dont think my body canhandle much more weight.

Im almost out of the 1st trimester and haven't gained any weight yet but I know I WILL because I CANNOT STOP EATING ....and I'm just wonderign what the range is.

I thought my Dr. said ( but I need to ask again to be sure) that at my weight I should only gain 35 lbs...I hope I can do that.

Re: How much weight dd you gain?

Dont stress about it............. I am overweight as well and I am now 22 weeks prego with triplets.........The DR wanted me to gain 40 lbs I just looked at her as if she was nuts..To this day I have only gained 17 lbs........and the most recent gain was in thel ast 3 weeks. If your hungry just eat but try to stay away from the junk and try to eat healthy........ I know it isnt easy TRUST me..........Just dont stress about it !!!!! Everything will work out in the end.........Good luck to you........

I gained 74 pounds, but most of it was water weight

Re: How much weight dd you gain?

I gained 43 and a lot was water weight at the end. Also, you won't be able to eat as much in the later months when those little babies take up all the room.

I gained 35 - 40 lbs and it was all gone by the time I left the hospital. Most was water weight near the end, but I was overweight to start off with.

Re: How much weight dd you gain?

I was also overweight when I got pregnant with my twins. I have to say that I wish I had eaten more. i was so stressed to not gain as much weight as with my first baby that I was really strict with what I ate. I also continued to walk on treadmill for about 1/2 my pregnancy. The DR. ok'd it.

I ended up having a 3lb 14 oz baby (the other was 5lbs 7oz) and I still feel guilty that if I had eaten more ..maybe would have been bigger.

I gained about 45 pounds, but it seriously looks like I'm all belly so I'm hoping it comes off quick. The last few weeks I've been retaining a lot of water too.
