Hello~
I have asked this question before about weight gain and how much everyone has gained.  I am 23 1/2 weeks pregnant and so far have gained 14 lbs. I think that thatis good but who knows. My OB said I am doing fine. Now my question is how much did everyone else gain by now and how much did they gain the last few months of pregnancy- and what was their total amount of weight gain? Someone told me that you put on the most amount of weight at the end. I really don't want that to happen to me. I have been dealing with the weight gain so-so so far. I know that it is for a wonderful cause but to see that sacle go back up after surgery takes a lot to get used to! 
Thanks!!

I only gained like 3 lbs up until 20 wks.  Then at my 26 week visit, I gained 10 lbs all of a sudden like a load of bricks all at once (since my last visit a month before).  My doc says it's normal around that time to gain 7-15 lbs and I was fine.  I am 31 wks now and have gained 17 lbs so far and am pretty happy with that.  I get a weekly email from babycenter.com about how the baby is growing, etc and it says in the last trimester, that you are supposed to gain 1 lb per week, so that puts me at 25 lbs total gained by the end if I do gain that.  But honestly, as long as you are making good food choices and not eating large amounts, I feel  you will gain what is healthy for YOU and your baby.   Everyone is different and some will gain hardly anything, some a normal amount, and some will gain more than usual.  

Hit goal weight of 140 at 13 months out from RNY!! 130 pounds GONE!

I'm 20 weeks and I've gained 12 lbs. I was told to only gain 15, but it looks like I'm going to be gaining more than that. I will be ok with 30, I think I can handle that, but if I gain more, I will not be happy with myself cause I know I it's me and not the baby.

I'm 30 weeks and have only gained 1 pound so far. It varies from person to person. I know another RNY'er who gained 35 pounds total with her recent pregnancy.
