And I am 9 weeks behind you hahaha. No worries at all, my dear. At 26 weeks last time around I had gained somewhere around 25ish or so. *mouth drop icon*

I was really really depressed about the gaining, but I weighed 17lbs less to start out this time which gives me a head start and I finally have my energy back to get my butt back to the gym and I'm keeping track of my food in a journal to make sure I'm getting enough calories but not getting too many so I hopefully won't gain as fast for the rest of my pregnancy.

I always start out pretty good in the beginning...but starting at 20 weeks, it's all over. Last pregnancy I gained 6 lbs by 20 weeks, but 41 total by the time I delivered at 39 weeks. One week I gained 9 pounds! It was crazy. This time I've gained 5 pounds so far at almost 19 weeks, but I'm not counting on a low overall weight gain.

I quit looking at the scale. It made me sad, so I ate a brownie instead.

This pregnancy I have gained a total of 9 lbs. It was the last 10 weeks that kicked my butt with my first, I gained 35lbs of water weight! I totaled out my last pregnancy with a gain of 55lbs (also lost 30lbs in the first 2 weeks after giving birth) I had preeclampsia. I am dreading the next 12 weeks to come. I started swelling a bit 4 days ago and I have not stepped on the scale since! I don't want to know! But I refuse to weigh as much as I did last time. I have been pretty careful on what I eat and going on walks. Hopefully I can keep myself 25lbs or below this time.

That's how I feel.  I have gained 18 lbs so far and I was overweight to start with.  My OB is not concerned.  But I wish the wt. gain slows down.

I have already gained 7. I was borderline under weight at the beginning but still seems excessive. I personally like to blame the holidays however - pretty sure I gain about 5# between Nov and Jan every year regardless. Oh well.

Yep. Food is almost always on my mind these days. Yummmm. Not sure how much I have gained so far (haven't had an appointment in 4 weeks), but I am pretty sure it is somewhere in the 12 to 15 lb vicinity.

I am gonna go get a snack right now actually. . .

I'm at 23 weeks and up 25 so if you're at 14 kudos! I lost 20lbs before I got pregnant so it is probable I would have gained much of that back anyway. I have only gained a pound in the past 3 weeks though. I think I've found my body's balance of protein to fat and carbs to reduce my hunger.

YES!  Absolutely, that is me exactly!  And I'm only at 14 weeks.  I look at my very rounding torso and think "goodness, I have a long way to go still"...I gained 52lbs with DD so I really am working towards not doing that again.

I weighed myself last night and I'm at 13. I put on 7 of those in the first tri since the only way I didn't feel too nauseous was to eat... My only silver lining was that I did that with DS and I ended up at 28 total.  But I can't remember how much I had put on at 18 weeks... so I'm kind of freaking out.  I need to walk more and stay away from the Christmas treats!!

I love my boys! (DS, Furbaby, and DH)

I'm with you guys. I've gained 14 and I still do the same workouts I did pre-pregnancy (6 days a week).  I don't feel as if I overeat but I keep on growing.  LOL. I've let it go because there is nothing more I could do short of a diet.

We all gain differently. Those in the 20-something weeks, 14 pounds is what you should be gaining, it's not a lot at all if you had a normal BMI to start with. With DS, I gained most of my weight in the 2nd trimester and almost nothing the last month or so. Anyways, for those of you who want to obsess over numbers, check this site out.

You can enter your prepregnancy weight and your height and calculate to see the minimum and maximum weight gain (knowing it may be more or less because we're all different). Kind of a fun tool.

I've gained 16-17lbs so far. I was very upset about it a few weeks ago but I got over it. My MW said to try and keep it under 20lbs gained by 20 weeks. That might be tough with the holidays, but I think I can keep my weight *close* to that...

I've gained 20 so far Surprise I've started to watch my calories this past week and I've been exercising the past few weeks so I'm hoping to slow down the gain.

I gained close to 50lbs with my first but I lost it all before I got pregnant again. I swore to myself that I wouldn't gain like that again, but sources say "Outlook not so good."

I am with you on this.... If I want to be honest with myself, I was 155 when I started and now I. Around 164, but I was practically starving myself bc I got married in July and had to fit in my gown. Come September, I'm pregnant, and now pushing 165... I say eff it. I'm taking advantage of being able to eat and not diet. It's the first time in 6 years I haven't dieted. If I get fat, oh well!

Yes! I need to stop opening all of these weight posts. I've worked so hard to *only* gain 15 lbs. I lift weights 3 times a week and do cardio 3 times a week. I refuse to diet while pg, but I do usually eat fairly healthy. (The holidays may be throwing me off some.) I look at food and gain weight. I just don't have the body type that can metabolize food so quickly and not gain a thing.

I stared in horror for an embarrassing number of seconds before realizing that the gain is week by week and not cumulative, and that it was not, in fact, telling me that I should have only gained 1-2 pounds at this point in the pregnancy. 

Late night reading fail.

With my first, I gained about 55 lbs becuase I ate whatever I felt like eating.  With this one, so far I've gained about 20 lbs, but I am drinking so much water all of the time and not really eating junk food, so I think it is a lot of water weight.  Anyway, I won't be gaining 55 lbs with this one, and that is good enough for me.
