38 weeks and 21 lbs...I actually LOST 2 lbs this past week. I have been feeling really nauseous so maybe that is why - I definitely haven't been trying to lose weight, that is for sure!

With my DS, at 38 weeks, I had gained 65 lbs...what a difference!

by the time i gave birth at 36.5 weeks, i had gained almost 60lbs! lost 40 of it at 4 weeks post delivery checkup. still working on the remaining 20!

I gained 34 pounds in total. Lost nothing in the first week (not even the baby weight) due to the water pumped into me from the drip during the c-section. Then lost 15 pounds from week 2 to 3. Another 15 pounds gradually from week 4 to 12. Another 4 pounds to go!

Had DS#2 about 2 1/2 weeks ago...gained 20 lbs. total (lost 3 lbs in the last 2 weeks because I was so nauseous and couldn't stomache anything)

With DS#1, I had gained 65 lbs. total! Wow, what a difference!!!

Im 30 weeks and have gained 14 pounds

My last pregnancy I had a weird experience. I was 116lbs when I got pregnant and I gained 18lbs during my pregnancy. I had a c-section at 38 weeks and 2 weeks later I had to go back to the doctor for a checkup.

When they weighed me I had already lost 15lbs. I have no idea how that happened! My doctor was baffled as well and said I must have retained a LOT of water during my pregnancy. No complaints here though! It took me 3 weeks to get back to size 1. With my middle daughter it took me 8 months to get there. So I was very happy to be able to wear my normal clothes so soon after the pregnancy.

i'm 36 weeks and gained 33 lbs... 4 weeks to go before my c-section so i stand to gain another 4 lbs approx.

... wonder how long it'll take for me to get my pre-baby body back?...

i'm 30.5 weeks and i finally hit the 20-lb mark..w00t. lately it has been easier for me to eat now that my baby is head down i think (less heartburn, tummy feels less compressed).

Blondee178 · Nov 17th, 2009, 02:10 PM

Those of you who gained 15-25lbs...how did you do it? I've already gained 7lbs and I'm only 16 wks! Its a lot considering I just started gaining weight 3 to 4 wks ago. My Dr. said i should only gain 25lbs in total.

I gained 40lbs with my first.
