Pregnancy And Weight Gain Question?

By New Moms Forum, March 1, 2010

I am a bit confused about my weight gain. I weighed 138 pre-pregnancy. During the first few months, I lost 6 pounds bringing me down to 132. I currently weigh 152. Does this mean I gained 19 pounds with the 6 I lost in the beginning, or have I only gained 13 pounds because of my pre-pregnancy weight? How is this calculated?
I am 30 weeks, and I’m trying to calculate how much my total weight will be in 10 more weeks. Not that it matters much, but I’m a woman! lol I’m just curious!
Thank you!!

Can Little Weight Gain During Pregnancy Cause Problems?

By New Moms Forum, March 1, 2010

My friends mother just passed away last week after giving birth to two twin girls. The day after they were born she got a clot. The girls were born very prematurely, which may have caused the clot that caused her death. But I was wondering if her weight gain may have affected her? She gained very little weight when she had her two previous children, but as far as I’m aware it didn’t not harm her health. (The last child she gave birth to is now about seven).

Does Anyone Have A Link To A Site That Breaks Down The Pregnancy Weight Gain Into Categories? Ie: Water Weight

By New Moms Forum, February 28, 2010

Im looking for the percentages of each category of total weight gain during pregnancy… I want to know how much of my total weight was water, fat, baby, ect…
If you have a link to a site that explains this, please post it for me. Thanks so much.
In two weeks, I have already lost 22 lbs… I had preeclampsia with ALOT of water weight and extreme swelling of my extremities… I was gaining about 5 lbs a week in water towards the end of my pregnancy. I want to judge how much more I can expect to lose of my 60 lb weight gain.
Thanks so much!

I’ve Put On All Of Pregnancy Weight Gain In First 16 Weeks! What To Do?

By New Moms Forum, February 28, 2010

I am 16 weeks pregnant with twins and have probabl put on all my pregnancy weight now! I was really tied and had bad morning sickness for the first 14 weeks and didn’t do any exercise (spent a lot of time lying in bed) when normally I walked 2 hours a day, and ran or went to gym for an hour – plus sit ups etc – so weight gain was rapid! In the last 2 weeks I have started walking again (30-1h30 hours a day), and swimming and pilates once a week.
I usually have a piece of pumpernickel/rye bread spread with hummous, with chopped tomatoes and a couple of handfuls of rocket/watercress/spinach on top for breakfast. For snacks – I have clementines, almonds, yoghurt. Lunch I have soup, and sometimes have toast if at parents and desperate even though bread makes me put loads of weight on – and for dinner I have stir fries with basmati rice, stews with pulses, omlettes and salad, occassionally pasta with veg, or steamed veg grilled fish with mashed potato – things like that. I do sometimes eat more bread then I should and occasionally a few biscuits ahem…

How Much Weight Gain Is Normal During The First 4 Months Of Pregnancy?

By New Moms Forum, February 27, 2010

I am four months pregnant, and go back to the doctor on Feb.6. At my last doctors appointment he told me that I havent gained any weight so far, but my stomach was growing so the baby was gaining all the weight. I was advised to only gain about 20 pounds during my whole pregnancy because with my first pregnany I gained ALOT of weight and I was already a little over weight at the beginning of this pregnancy. I weighed myself at my mothers house and it looks like I have gained 3-5 pounds since January 9. Is this bad considering this is the only weight I have gained so far?!? How to I keep my weight from sky rocketing like it did with my first son?

When Should You Worry About Weight Gain During Pregnancy?

By New Moms Forum, February 27, 2010

I will be 29 weeks on friday 11/21. I have only gained 4 pounds. I was overweight before I became pregnant. I also had thyroid problems before I got pregnant but now my thyroid tests come back good. My doc refuses to go into detail with me about anything and just says not to worry. He never seems concerned. Just wondering if anyone has been in this situation before and how the baby was when it was born. I’m really worried.

Anyone Else Feeling Depressed During Pregnancy? Weight Gain?

By New Moms Forum, February 26, 2010

I wouldn’t say i’m horribly depressed.. but today is just one of those days.. I am so frustrated.. I know you are supposed to gain weight during pregnancy, and I knew that before I got pregnant.. but I just wasn’t expecting this. So many women, especially on this site, say they’ve only gained like nine or ten pounds total.. I just dont understand how this happens!! I have been skinny my whole life.. Before I got pregnant I was 5′9″, 131 pounds, and now i’m 153 pounds at 25 weeks. I’ve gained 22 pounds already and still have 15 of the worst weight gaining weeks to go. I constantly watch what i eat, I eat really well and exercise. In fact, i’ve totally changed my life with how well i eat now. Somedays I just can’t stand to look in the mirror though, and I dread whats coming… Is anyone else feeling this way??
