Weight 3rd trimester

Hi ladies,

I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this (or has experienced it)... I just found out I'm at a normal/not too low BMI. At 1.62m tall, I started my pregnancy at 58.6kg. Now I'm 28 weeks and have only gained 2.3kg. So far, nothing has been said about it; I had a scan last week and our daughter looked perfectly fine there.. She's a bit smaller but that's due to my Indian heritage.

I'm worried that I've gained way too little weight and that it might have consequences for our girl...

(By the way, I try to eat as much as I did before pregnancy, but I get full SO quickly and I mostly just crave fruits as a snack)

Has anyone else had this or experienced it????

    Hi Suusje

    Don't worry too much. If the midwife hasn't said anything about it yet, it's probably not alarming at all.
    I'm the youngest of 5 sisters and we all gained very little weight or had low weight gain during pregnancy.

    I'm now 35 weeks and weigh about 3kg more than before, and my gynecologist seems only happy about it

    If you're really worried, you can bring it up at your next check-up. But I'm sure everything is fine; otherwise, they would have said something by now.

    Good luck with your pregnancy

    Best,
    Hellie
