ideal weight gain during pregnancy

Ideal pregnancy weight gain is all based off your starting weight/height ratio. If you feel you are gaining to fast maybe try healthier smaller meals and adding some excessive (light eversizs) you can't do a whole lot about weight gain during pregnancy besides earrings right and trying to avoid binging on cravings and instead eat just enough to knock the craving out. Unless your dr is concerened (and they will tell you) just enjoy the pregnancy!

Your midwife or doctor will let you know how much weight is ideal for you to put on during your pregnancy. If you have a normal BMI they say between 11 - 16kg weight gain is fine.. I at 29w and I think I have gained around 10kg so far, but in the beginning weight gain was very slow! At this stage I think your fine :) But remember weight gain is not all you putting on weight.. bub, fluid, placenta all add to it.

ve only gained 13 pounds thus far. My doctor always said for me 20-30 pounds was ideal during pregnancy. Anything after can cause complications and/or be tougher to loose after baby. Also a lot of my mommy friends said they gained most of their weight their last month of pregnancy when baby goes faster.

m understanding. . So u were over weight pre pregnancy. U gained 30 lbs during pregnancy n is now a total of 70 lbs over ur ideal weight?

t have any morning sickness but I am on my feet a lot during the day. I can tell my body is changing and growing, just no actual weight gain yet!

My dr has not been concerned he said ideal weight gain is 15-20lbs since I am over weight. I dont think its practical to not gain ANY weight. The baby an placenta are about 10lbs total at delivery. I would do your best to excersize an eat right but dont stress yourself out if you gain some weight.

s a lot to gain at what you are. Ideal weight is 25 to 30 pounds. But you were very thin to begin with so I think you are just fine! Your body needs fat for energy for your growing baby with my last son I started at 118 and when I finally had him I was 142.

I lost 6 pounds during 6 through 10 Weeks. now I can't gain any weight lol.

I've gained 46 I'm 34&4 I don't get it either I'm not going over bored eating I'm eating like I always have but I'm gaining like crazy & cried today when I realized I've gained almost 50 pounds..

So I was losing weight up until a month or so ago. I'm 27&4 today. Pre pregnancy weight was 154. Beginning of May I weighed 158. I was at the regular doctors today for my cold which turned out to be a sinus/ear infection. I was weighed and I am 166.. Am i gaining to much and to fast?

I was around 125 before I was pregnant and I have gained 40, I have 4 weeks left. My doctor said everyone gains different and if you were ideal or under weight before you will tend to gain more during. Don't stress about that like I did you will lose it after!

Do you count weight gain from the weight you had when you found out you were pregnant or even after losing weight while pregnant and then gained?

and \dont forget your protiens, lean meat is best bc you want to keep in mind, weight gain, doctors dont like when women esp. if someone is overweight gain weight................. if your as thin as a toothpick then yes 30 lbs is recommended, for example when i get prego, i shouldnt gain any more then 10lbs. bc im around 138lb now, i was 113lb b4 my first child.

The ideal amount is 25-35. By the last 2 months or so you'll be gaining a pound per week. Just be careful I don't think its too much personally. If your pre pregnancy weight is normal you'll gain more weight than an over weight person who will gain very little to nothing.

I try to eat healthy with occasional cravings but the weight just sticks to me. So sometimes I feel during pregnancy is inevitable to not gain weight.

How far along are you? Check online for ideal weight for your height and age. Then if you are approaching 12 wks, you need to have gained at least 1 (up to 2) kg. 43 kg is rather low as a starting point. Perhaps you can ask if you need to have a blood test to see why you are not putting on weight? There could be underlying factors that could affect your baby later on. I don't want to alarm you but I've realised over these short few weeks how important food and weight is during pregnancy.

I'm 16 weeks and still under my pre-pregnancy weight (only by 2lbs). My midwife assures me I will pack on some pounds soon. I'm sure you will round off those numbers later on.

you're not really suppose to gain weight really until the end, but everyone is different. I've gained 50lb and I'm 38weeks. They say you're only suppose to gain 25-30lbs.

I think 30 pounds is probably the ideal weight gain for most pregnant women.I lost ten pounds, then gained 20 back with my daughter. With my son I gained ten pounds total. Overall, my daughter was my healthier newborn. My son was a month early and was in the NICU. Don't get discouraged or upset over your weight.

This way you increase to the recommended weight gain of 25-35lbs but not gain 100+lbs. Exercising during your pregnancy would help keep your body toned, too. Hoped this helped you.

This time around im trying not to gain anything. Its normal and healthy to gain like 25-30lbs during pregnancy. So dont let the comments about only gaining 6, 7, 8 lbs bum you out. As long as you feel good and baby is healthy your fine. But you better hope the weight falls off after you deliver or you deliver a 10 lbs baby cuz you will be upset when you leave the hospital and your only like 7 lbs lighter.

I havent heard of any diet plan really. But generally while your pregnant u tend to gain weight. Some women lose weight at first but usually doesn't last long before long they gain weight to because the baby is bigger.what I would suggest is just getting on a really healthy eating plan and light workouts that way u can manage ur weight.
