Weight gain while pregnant?

Question

Just curious about how far along you are and how much weight you have gained. Iam 36 weeks and I have gained 45 pounds and I feel like a beach whale. This is my 4th child and with the other 3 I gained about 25 lbs. at the most. And also if you have boys and girls did you gain more with certain sexes.

Answer 1

I'm 23 weeks and have gained 13 pounds so far.  We'll see where it goes from here- this is my first baby- I don't know the gender, but everyone is guessing it's a boy for some reason....hmmmm

Answer 2

I am 30 weeks and have gained 33 pounds so far. This is a girl I also have a boy and a girl and with them I only gained about 25 throughout the whole pregnancy although this time it is a big bubba because I have gestational diabetes

Answer 3

I am 33 weeks along and had gained 20kg (about 40lbs) however the last time I weighed myself I had lost about a kilo (2lbs) haven't weighed myself since, but I have gotten bigger since then so maybe put on a bit more again. I'm definately uncomfortable but it's not too bad. I was very small when I fell pregnant though so apart from the stomach I'm about normal size now...

Answer 12

I think the older you are when you get pregnant the more weight you gain and the harder the pregnancy. When  had my daughter at 21 I lost more weight than I gained and still had a health 8.8lb baby, but I had my last child at 27 and that pregnancy was.........ooooooo so bad. I gained 85 lbs, still haven't lost and had morning sickness until i was 8 months pregnant. But it was all worth it.
