Have you weighed yourself since becoming pregnant?

[Mamalicious]

I haven't, I want to go to the gym on Monday so I can use their scales, but I'm a bit nervous! :p

Uh, yes, and to exercise aswell...:cool::D

Have you weighed yourself? Was it scary? :eek:

[fugly]

I have ......
It wasnt pretty before I got pregnant so am quite happy as I've only put on 1 kilo :) But I am WAY overweight for me

Surely Mars Bars weigh more than that ????

[Mamalicious]

:laughing: Lucky you!!!

I know I've put on weight, hopefully not too much though as my limit is 9 kilos weight gain, I'm not allowed to go over that. I decided that myself :D otherwise I'm scared I'll blow up like a balloon, and we're all due in swimming season! :eek:

[Incy Wincy]

Yes, I haven't put on any weight yet but I was a bit fat to start with :D I'm a size 16

[Mamalicious]

You lucky things, I KNOW I've put on weight, I can feel it in my a$$. :o:crying: I'm just praying it's only a few kilos because there's still a few months to go!!! :eek:

[fugly]

Swimming Season - I wish..

On Jan 1st (my due date) this year we had a max temp of 2 degrees and it just got colder :no: This was one of my main reasons of wanting to come back to Oz and have the baby but ATM have decided against it

[Mamalicious]

Really??? I was in Perth the January before DS was born and it was SO SO SO SO HOT I thought I would be cooked in the heat! :o

It was horrible...and it made me cranky LOL I kept telling DH I was going home :laughing:

[fozzie]

I was weighed at the hospital and I was worried that I'd put on weight already and I'm quite overweight already but :smiliedance:I haven't.

[Mamalicious]

Well done!!! :yelclap:

So how do you do it? :confused:

I'm so scared of putting on weight, I held SO much fluid last time my skin was squishy in the evenings:(:o

Are you guys just magic??? :wizard::p

[readytotry]

Yes and I have put on 2.5 kilos! :laughing:
I was my ideal weight when we fell pg, now I am 2.5kgs heavier. But I think this is ok. 2.5 in the first trimester is ok right???

[fozzie]

I don't tend to put weight on during pregnancy only a few kilos and then after the birth I usually weigh less than I did when I got pg. I think it's because bub feeds off my fat stores:o. Just wish it would stay off.

I have referred to my pregnancy & birth book and it states the following:

The first three months (week 12): If vomiting hasn't been a prob you may have gained 1.2kg (2.5lbs) about 10% total pregnancy weight gain.

The model in the picture of my book actually put on 2kg (4.5lbs) but she looked really slim to start with.

The second three months (week 16): During the next three months you can expect to gain about 5-7kgs (11-15.5lbs), 50-60% of total pregnancy weight gain :eek:

So it looks as though we're coming up for a period of rapid growth very soon. We'll be popping out all over the place :D

[Mamalicious]

Oh great...that's fantastic...:crying::p

Well I have already put on about 4kgs but I have been eating soo much junk. I put on 15kg with DD but lost it all and was back to the same weight when I was pregnant with this one so I am not too worried. Only thing is my body was never quite the same!!

[angelbaby013]

i have been weighing myself now and then but its hard to keep track cause my scales, GP scales and clinic scales are all different.

According to my new digital scales ive put on about 2.5kg up to 15wks when i last weighed.

considering im bigger to start of with id like to aim for 8kg total gain but as i put on 10kg of just fluid with DD im not too worried this time, luckily i lost that 10kg within 48hr of the birth :D

i think 3-3.5kg till now (17wks) would be okay for me. i have been :barf: the past week so might weigh myself next tuesday (start of week) and see how its all going.

[Hels*Bels]

I have gained approx 2.5kgs in the first 16 weeks and I am happy with that as I haven't been eating all that good :o

I have set myself a goal of no more than 10kgs. With DS I gained 14kgs all up but this time I was still 6kgs heavier to start with.

[Mamalicious]

I'm doing the same, no more than 9 kilos...we'll see how much I've gained tomorrow. :crying: Is there a 'fear' smilie? :p

[angelbaby013]

i got good news :D

i had my antenatal appointment yesterday.....i weighed myself on the same scales as last time wearing the same clothes.....and guess what

from 18 June to 30 July I put on a grand total of....

wait for it......




200 GRAMS :eek:

im so freaking shocked......the doc was like...man...good job :thumbsup: im so chuffed, i expected about 2kg.

im really happy cause all up ive put on about 2kg total...ive lost enough weight along the way to counter act the baby and the extra stuff.

i was trying hard to watch my weight but i didnt expect to lose cause i know its not good when pregnant. so heres to some chocolate for dessert tonight :smiliedance:

My Wii Fit is going to love me in a few weeks when I start putting on baby weight & loose all sense of balance because of my big belly :devil6:

I've been pretty good so far...I've actually lost weight (I could stand to loose quite a bit, really...blimmin PCOS) but it won't last.

I nearly doubled my weight with #1...went from 45kgs to over 80. Nobody ever said anything (sigh). Thankfully I lost a lot of it once I'd had bubs & the fluid retention went away. I put on hardly anything with #2 (I lost weight to start with...& no, I wasn't 45kgs this time round) & returned to my pre-pregnancy weight fairly quickly. This bubs is looking like it's going to be the same.

:laughing: i can just picture that :smiliedance:

[Hels*Bels]

:no: well I gained 1 kg last week. Not sure why that is but not happy Jan....

[jembelina]

I was overweight to begin with, but I weighed myself at my first visit then zt my last and the scales hadn't budged..........very happy about that, but I don't tend to put on a great deal while I'm pregnant anyway. It all piles on aferwards!!!!

[k2ma]

I am 20 weeks this week and weighed myself on Sunday - I have put on 7kg. Even though I am fairly small framed it seems like a lot for the first half...though with the other two I put on about 16kg all up.

Just hope it all comes off as easily as it goes on!!:eek:

[Mamalicious]

I still haven't, I'm too scared! :laughing:

I'm thinking about not weighing myself at all, not until the end anyway so I can see how much I've put on and have a start weight after bubs is born. :D
