Weight gain

Hi!

I'm 15 weeks pregnant now and have already gained 6.5 kg.
Well, when I was pregnant before, my BMI was on the lower side. So I think my body just needed to build up a bit of fat first.
But I am a bit worried about where this is heading. I'm afraid I'll never get the weight off again.
Has anyone else here experienced this?
Best wishes

    I'm now 23+2 weeks and have already gained 14 kilos... I'm also scared of all those kilos because before my pregnancy I finally reached my target weight after a long time of suffering at the gym... but I think if you're careful you'll lose the kilos quickly after giving birth. Maybe a few will stick around, but since you're so skinny, maybe it's okay, hehehe...

    Hi
    Thanks for your reply!
    It’s nice to know I’m not the only one whose weight is dropping like a stone????
    Yeah, I should probably gain a bit more, but it still feels a bit scary.
    But, all for the baby now!
    I am a bit worried that it might be unhealthy for the baby or for me that the weight is dropping so fast.
    Cheers.

    It could also be that you have gestational diabetes... you should definitely mention it to your gynecologist...

    I'm 16 weeks and barely gained anything, but with my first pregnancy I had gained a lot more... At the end, 26 kg!

    That’s not bad at all! I’m 20.2 weeks and have gained 12 kilos now.

    I'm holding my breath for the last 12 weeks pfffff hopefully it'll stick around now because 17 kg at almost 28 weeks is already quite a lot

    For me, it's not that long anymore.. just 5-7 weeks max.. but yeah, they'll probably start gaining weight then too...

  14. Cathy #15

    Yeah, I'm so scared of that last one flying by while it's still with me hahaha... but afterwards we'll have fun again.. and hopefully they'll fly by quickly too through breastfeeding...

  15. lesleywolff #16

    With me, they fell off anyway when I started breastfeeding. So I do have confidence...

    Weight: 75.2kg so I've gained... yeah it'll probably come off again eh????
