View Full Version : Weight gain on first vs. second pregnancy.
Lyndee May 10th, 2004, 10:07 AM What was your gain on first vs. second pregnancy?
I gained 50 lbs the last time and I'm hoping not to do that again! I looked at my old chart and at 16 weeks, I was 103 lbs. This time I'm at 104.
What about you??
jstauffer May 10th, 2004, 11:11 AM I gained 28 pounds each time. Kind of weird huh?
Sherry May 10th, 2004, 11:18 AM Well, for me my weight "stayed the same" from beginning to end... as in not preg at 130, and nine months preg 130. But after birth, within a few months, I gained 30 afterwards, then 2nd pregnancy I gained like 30 again about 2 months after she was here again!
Dawn May 10th, 2004, 01:08 PM I gained only 24 pounds with my first pregnancy.
This time around, so far I seem to be following the same...as in not gaining much. I think this time around I won't gain alot either. I guess we'll see. I'm still too early to really tell.
Hilary May 10th, 2004, 01:49 PM 45 the first time and 40 the second.
Karly May 10th, 2004, 04:11 PM 45 both times!
I lost it all plus more the first time, and I still haven't lost it all this time yet! :eek:
koalita May 10th, 2004, 09:42 PM I gained 30 lbs the first time, lost 32 afterwards, and now I'm about 2 lbs heavier than I was at this point last time. So I'll probably end up at the exact same weight by the time I deliver.
Cortney May 12th, 2004, 09:33 AM I gained 35 lbs when I was pregnant with Morgan and I hope to only gain 30 or so with this pregnancy- although I'm not going to stress about it! :)
Dawnie May 13th, 2004, 11:59 AM I gained about 22-24 with all three of my pregnancies and most it was caused by water retention towards the end. Afterwards I was lucky and lost all the "baby weight" plus some - now I'm just working on what I had before my pregnancies. :lol:
eelyak May 13th, 2004, 12:40 PM I gained 35 lbs with my first. 25 with my second. Strange how it works out too, as my second weight 1/2 a lb more than my first.
Cathleenk_77 May 14th, 2004, 09:22 AM I gained 22lbs with my first, and with this one it seems about the same so far... have to wait and see..
Mandy May 14th, 2004, 11:14 AM 52 lbs with my first (girl) and 35 lbs (boy)with my second. It took me 6 months to lose all the weght after my first and one month after my second.
Brandi June 6th, 2004, 11:16 PM Well, at my 28 week appt. the doctor said I was almost exactly at the same weight gain that I was at 28 weeks with Carter. I'm still hoping that I won't gain the 50 pounds that I did with Carter!
Jeni June 15th, 2004, 04:38 PM My weight gain has been exactly the same.
