when did you first gain some weight?

I'm 11 weeks, and just had my 3rd Dr. visit.

from week 5-7, I LOST 3 lbs. From week 7-11, I LOST another pound

mind you, I'm pudgy to start, so I'm not supposed to gain as much as a thinner mom, but I expected to at least gain a couple lbs by now.
There has definitely been a good deal of remodeling in my belly region. I think my enlarged uterus has pushed my pudge upwards and outwards
I look like I gained, but I didn't.

so when did you actually finally weigh 3-5 lbs more than your pre-pregnancy weight

Re: when did you first gain some weight?

According to the scale from the doc yesterday, I gained in the past three weeks

Re: when did you first gain some weight?

the past two times i went to the dr...I lost weight...this past time at 11wks I only gained a 1/2 lb...I think b/c I've had bad m/s, so that made up for all that i've eaten.

Re: when did you first gain some weight?

I lost 13 lbs initially - and I was thin to begin with - all from m/s - I didn't gain anything at all until about 5 months, and that was with Zofran!

Re: when did you first gain some weight?

I didn't gain anything until my 3 Month appt. I gained 10 pounds in one month....

Been OK since that month. A few pounds each visit nothing that crazy.

Re: when did you first gain some weight?

I was very thin to begin with and was very sick both p/g's.
My 1st-I lost 10 lbs in the 1st trimester and did not gain anything until about 6 months.
This time-I lost 7 lbs in the 1st tri. and did not gain anything until 5 months.
My Dr said not to worry.
I am 35 weeks and I have gained 17lbs so far.

Re: when did you first gain some weight?

Re: when did you first gain some weight?

I just gained my first couple of pounds at my last visit for my 28 week check up. So far I've only gained 3 pounds.

Re: when did you first gain some weight?

I had more to love from the start But I am now 27 weeks and have only gained 1 lb. I am happy to report. I have really been trying not to gain and watch what I eat and going for walks with the dog. I go next week for another vist but I hope to not gain too much these last couple of months.

Re: when did you first gain some weight?

My body has totally changed but at my 12 weeks visit (over 2 weeks ago) I still hadn't gained anything. I was surprised but happy. I am sure next visit will yield different results

Re: when did you first gain some weight?

I've gained about 2-3lbs I think. It's hard to tell - I've never been a scale person, so I don't know my normal weight for sure anyway.
