how much weight did you gain whilst pregnant

**dancingchipmunk** · 29-01-2010 14:28

I naturally hover around 50 - 52kgs when not pregnant.
With DS1 I put on approx 25kg and with DS2 it was about 27kg.
Breastfeeding seems to be the trick for me when it comes to loosing weight though as I haven't had too much trouble getting rid of it (plus a pretty good metabolism from dads side of family).

i was 52kgs pre baby, 4days before i gave birth i weighed in at 72.5kgs so i gained a lil over 20 which i think is the norm,i lost all the weight rapidly,2days after giving birth before i discharged from hospital i weighd myself and was 56kgs so only had 4kgs to loose with bf i think i lost that in the first 3months but am now 53kgs so 1kg heavier but meh,close enough for me

Started at 61kg - lots of fluid due to fertility meds - usual weight 55kg
Went down to 53kg by about 12 weeks - bad morning sickness
Ended up at 64kg - c section at 39 weeks - DS was 2.985kg
Went home from hospital after 5 days weighing 52kg so it has been all a bit weird!
