How many kilos have you gained?

PapzakjeGuest ·
Hi lovely ladies,
I'm 19 weeks pregnant with my first baby and have already gained 10 kilos. I weighed 63 kilos and now weigh 73. I eat way too much (as much healthy stuff as possible) because I have raging hunger all day long, so I'm gaining weight shockingly fast.
I find this really unpleasant and feel so fat and chubby! But eating less just doesn't really work.
Are there more women who gain weight this quickly? Does this mean I'll keep gaining at this pace for the whole pregnancy?
Love from a little mama-to-be

    I'm also 19 weeks pregnant. I weighed 62kg and now I'm at 70kg, so I've already gained 8kg. At check-ups, they say I'm right on average, so don't worry too much. As long as you eat as healthily as possible, it's fine, so just keep moving regularly. I've been hungry all day long This is my third pregnancy. With my oldest son, I didn't gain that much or that quickly; I only had a small bump at 6 months. But I was really scared of gaining weight, so I couldn't really enjoy it. My second pregnancy with my youngest boy ended at 24 weeks. Every pregnancy is different, and as long as your baby gets everything it needs, it's good. I'm actually quite proud that I have a nice little bump now and have gained some kilos. I'm not worried about the weight anymore; after the pregnancy, I can just pay a bit more attention then. I hope your worries about this don't stick around too long, and above all, enjoy that little life in your belly. Before you know it, you'll have your baby in your arms.

    I gained a lot at first too, but in total 12 kg later on. But most of it came off pretty quickly after the birth anyway.

    I had also gained 10 kilos at 21 weeks (from 56 to 66 kilos) even though I wasn't really eating that much more than usual, so I saw it coming... The day after tomorrow I'll be 36 weeks, and I'm now at 14 kilos, so luckily the weight gain didn't continue at that pace!

    I gained weight really quickly and a lot too. Before my pregnancy I weighed 53 kg, and by 20 weeks I was already 15 kg heavier. In total, I ended up gaining 24 kg throughout my whole pregnancy.

    After giving birth, the first 12 kg flew off. The rest I had to lose through exercise...

    It's now been a year since the birth and I weigh 54 kg. Those last 2 kg just won't budge, but that's totally fine!

    I also had hunger all day long in the beginning of my pregnancy. Pounds flew on. At 24 weeks I had gained 10 kg, now almost 37 weeks 12 kg. So it all comes out fine

    I've gained almost 15 kilos by now and I'm 33 weeks, almost 34. At first it went quickly, but now I'm gaining almost nothing or very little!

    I'm 20 weeks and haven't gained any weight yet.

    My friend says you only start gaining weight from 20 weeks onwards because your baby is getting bigger. Before that, it's up to you, she said You'll probably forget about it again soon, dear

    I've lost 2 kilos so far and I'm 10 weeks pregnant. But I've been really struggling with nausea and vomiting. That's stopped now thanks to the suppositories.
