I’m 28 weeks now, and I’ve gained 13 pounds so far with this pregnancy. Problem is, I was 208 when I became pregnant. I about had a heart attack when I saw 221 on the scale as I have never weighed that much in my life!
Anyway, how much mor weight should I expect to gain with this pregnancy if I am super careful about what I eat? I’m going to stay away from all junk food and soda. Also, do you think the 13 pounds so far is good or excessive?
Thank you!

well, you didn’t state your height so the weight doesn’t really give us any indicator for your overall height to weight ratio. however, if you are considered overweight, you’re only supposed to gain 15-20lbs, but if you’re obese, you’re only supposed to gain 10-15lbs. I would speak with your doctor cause you still have approximately 12 more weeks to go, the baby still only weighs about 2lbs…see if he/she has any advice for you. but if they haven’t brought up your weight gain as a concern for them, they must not consider it to be TOO bad…just try to watch what you eat and make healthy decisions, not cravings ones. =]
I am 32 months along and have gained 30 pounds so far, docs says that 25- 30 pounds at full term is normal. I read that voluptuous women tend to gain less Weight during pregnancy. I would say just keep eating healthy now and after baby is born breast feed it helps you loose weight. and do baby yoga now and after baby. it feels great and helps you look great. good luck.
They say that they expect a 25-30 lbs weight gain during pregnancy. I’m small (not trying to rub it in AT ALL) and I weighed about 118 before I got pregnant. When I delivered I weighed almost 200 lbs. My mom gained a lot of weight when she was preggo too so I took it as being one of those “if your mom did, you will” things. 13 lbs at 28 weeks is good though!
Well if you watch what you eat you should be fine and healthy….I am 30 weeks and I have gained about 23 pounds ugh trust me your not the only that freaks out when they see the scale…but gaining weight is a big thing in pregnancy so dont worry about nothing as long as the baby is fine…good luck
Since a typical women is supposed to gain 25-30, I think you are fine so far. I wish I could be good and get rid of junk and stuff =).
Well they say women who are overweight and pregnant should expect to only see 10-15lbs on the scale.
