How much weight did you all gain during pregnancy?

Most of my friends have a gained a min. of 40lbs.

I am just curious:dunno

I do plan on excercising but also having ice cream(L)

Between 30-40 with all of mine. IT MELTED off though. I was back down to prepreg weight within 6 weeks with all of my kiddos. Some people just gain more, swell more, carry more water, have more placenta, etc so those little things can cause more weight gain. If I had gained 30 lbs of fat, I don't think it would have all melted off in 6 weeks but ya never know :lol

20 lbs with minimal exercising (just walking the dog) and eating what i wanted in moderation (be that oreos and milk or carrots).

65 pounds each time :giggle

I still have about 10lbs to prepregnancy with Tyler, and another 30 after that to prepregnancy with Erik

I gained 40! I started out weighing 140 lbs.

im insterested in this.. i am scared to gain so much weight.. i want weight like brandi and harrisonsdream , that melts off!! HAH!!

Well im 19 weeks and my dr. says ive gained 2 pounds.. but im sure itll allllll catch up to me VERY soon

Well , let me add.. its hard to tell how much ive really gained bc n the beginning i lost weight.. but then gained back.. so im 2 pounds above prepregnancy weight but probably have gained more than 2.. well, thats confusing

With Zachy about 60-65 pounds.
Nikolai about 45 pounds.
Thus far with this one I think I have lost a couple pounds (though I put a few on right before we got pregnant).

75 lbs with my first and so far 61.5 with my second :suspect

I'm a freak, I gained 10. I'd gain 3 and lose 3. I wasn't tiny pre-pregnancy, so according to my ob, she was taking from what I had stored. I gained 10 total, and lost 25 when I left the hospital.. so I was 15lbs. lighter than I started out. Didn't stay off though!

I gained about 20-25 with each one. For me it didn't come off though after and I gained more after :depressed

80 with my first... lost that in 6 months verrrry unhealthy ways
26 with ellie... still working on it LOL slowwwwwww assss metabolism due to about 15 yrs of abuse

With Jer I was last weighed in at 36 weeks and I had gained 65 lbs :no
I lost 40 of it in 10 days because I was carrying ALOT of water weight.
I plan on exercising at the gym throughout my next pregnancy and eating healthy so what I gain isn't too excessive, but I won't cut all my cravings and deprive myself.

never been preggo...but my best friend only gained 21lbs...and then a girl i know from the bank only gained like 12 total...however she was a little heavy before...and when she had to stop drinking so much alcohol she lost wait at first....

I gained 60 with DS, and 50 with DD. I didn't get down to my preprg weight inbetween. But, I did lose all of it within a year of having DD. I think it was the breastfeeding. I also cut out all refined flour and sugar.

I gained 35lbs with Alex.. I started off VERY thin with him.
I gained 30lbs for Cameron
I gained 20lbs for Wyatt.

I am scared what I'm gonna be when this one is over... I weigh right now what I did when I gave birth to Wyatt.... :depressed

80 with my first... lost that in 6 months verrrry unhealthy ways
26 with ellie... still working on it LOL slowwwwwww assss metabolism due to about 15 yrs of abuse


I feel your pain...

LOL you are a freak!!! JUST KIDDING!! I think you look great!!!:tu

LOL you are a freak!!! JUST KIDDING!! I think you look great!!!:tu

:lmao that's me! fan"freakin"tastic!!

I THINK YOU ALL LOOK GREAT!!!

18lbs with DS and 19lbs with DD.
Which was weird because I ate like mad woman they were both over 8lbs each!
So far with this one I've lost 8lbs.

almost 80lbs with my first, took me almost two years to start losing it, and then I got pregnant with #2, only gained 20lbs with him..... lost 50 lbs in a matter of weeks thanks to breastfeeding.
This pregnancy I have only gained 9lbs so far, looks like I've gained about 20 though.

16-18 pounds total. I lost it & more by the time I came home from the hospital. Half of that was Z since she was 9 pounds :lol

I gained 30, and right now my son's 9 months, and I'm 16 pounds under my pre pregnancy weight!

With my first preg I gained 16 lbs and with my second preg I gaing 18 lbs and lost it all. I still have not gained any weight with this preg. I have lost about 10-12 lbs and still am loosing no matter what I eat. My dr keeps asking if I am eating :giggle

I'm known as the weirdo in my family...:lol

I only gained 4 pounds with layla...I lost I believe 10 pounds the first 3 months I found I was pregnant because I had just went through a miscarriage 3 months before I got pregnant again. I think it just took my body a hard time to catch back up.
After I had her I lost another 30 pounds in 2 weeks! I have no idea what that was about.

With this one I gained 10 pounds so far I think...my last visit I only gained 5 pounds but I think I put on a extra 5 since then. So overall I'm trying to only gain 18 pounds. And thats the MAX. I'm very serious about it too. :(

Well I am 31 weeks into my pregnancy and have gained 25 pounds so far...I am also hoping that the weight just "melts" off...When I found out I was pregnant I was in the middle of loosing weight..I had just list 15 pounds I thought I was doing great...then I was preggo..I didn't stop exercising..but I did have to stop aking the weight loss pills..so I have to start back over once she is born...my goal weight will be 140...I am 185 now

I've gained about 15-20 pounds so far.
I was worried at first, but my doctor confirmed with me that it really depends on your body type on how much you will gain. (I'm small-framed).

I gained 25 pounds with Munchkin. Like the other girls, it came right off.

I gained 50 with my first, 40 with my second. I should add that each time I got pregnant I only weighed 98lbs, so I could use the extra weight. I was back to prepregnancy weight within 6-12 weeks both times. I am 11 years older than when I had my first, and I am scared that the weight isn't going to melt off as easily. So my plan is to start hitting the gym every morning before work, as soon as my doc gives me the go-ahead.

I gained anywhere from 35-60 pounds. I was able to lose the majority of the weight within the first year, if I tried.

First baby gained - 60 pounds (lost it within 6 months)
Second baby gained - 40 after the weight lost (but had lost weight in the first couple months) (went home weighting less then when I got pregnant
Third baby gained - 25-30 pounds (didn't real lose a thing)
fourth baby gained - 7 pounds (went home weighting less again)
I think that is right I know my chart is around here some where LOL

With my first pregnancy i gained 32-35lbs and then with this one so far i've gained 3lbs and i'm almost 23 weeks...but i didn't have time to lose all the weight from my 1st pregnancy so i'm trying to not gain to much..but with theses cravings who knows what'll happen..lol

My first I gained 54 pounds
My second I gained 58 pounds
With Bailey I gained about 60 pounds.

I have not lost all of my Bailey weight. My other 2 I had lost it all in a week.

17lbs

I gained about 27 with my son...this one I've gained about 25 so far and I have 5 weeks till my due date.

With my DS I gained 30 pounds, right in the middle of what my doctor reccomended I gain.

With this one I have only gained about 5 pounds and it has all been in the last month because they told me they were going to look at my diet if I didnt start gaining:D

80 lbs, 20 lbs, 50 lbs...

I usually gained about 30-40 lbs with each Pregnancy. it just depends. With my last two I don't remember because I didn't weigh myself before pregnancy so exact weight is unknown.

This may be a sensitive question.
How much weight did you all gain during pregnancy?

Most of my friends have a gained a min. of 40lbs.

I am just curious:dunno

I do plan on excercising but also having ice cream(L)

With my 1st: 75lbs (but 40lbs left over once the water weight came off)

With my 2nd: 55lbs (have lost 30 so far)

I agree w/ Brandi...With my first, I ate terrible and didn't do much. With my 2nd preg, I didn't eat as bad and I was a bit more active than last time and I still gained quite a bit (didn't swell as bad though). So I think it can also be a factor of how your body handles pregnancy.

I gained 35 with both daughters. I lost it all too. I definitely believe ice cream is a must, pregnant or not :lol. And, oh, I was on on bed rest for an entire trimester for each pregnancy. Your body will gain whatever it wants and needs, that's for sure. I didn't think too much about the scale at that time. Who needs the added stress?
