Think I was up approx 7-10 lbs from IVF which I did factor into the 55 or so lbs I gained. (delivered at 36 weeks) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-did-you-gain-in-your-pregnancy/page/2#post-2277167 Sun, 30 Aug 2015 19:53:06 +0000 californiadreams 2277167@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>45 with LO1.

I don't think it was the IUI meds (Femera) but I think it was definitely the IVF meds. I was getting stretch marks even before getting pregnant. 😳 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-did-you-gain-in-your-pregnancy/page/2#post-2277100 Sun, 30 Aug 2015 17:29:43 +0000 shopaholic 2277100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD - 19lbs<br /> DS - up 20.5lbs at 36weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-did-you-gain-in-your-pregnancy/page/2#post-2277029 Sun, 30 Aug 2015 14:04:01 +0000 chopsuey 2277029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>50+ and 40lbs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-did-you-gain-in-your-pregnancy/page/2#post-2277015 Sun, 30 Aug 2015 13:16:20 +0000 littleblessings 2277015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>about 40lbs in both pregnancies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-did-you-gain-in-your-pregnancy/page/2#post-2277011 Sun, 30 Aug 2015 13:02:20 +0000 yin 2277011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gained about 15 lbs both times.

Do you think it was the stress? I became majorly bloated and exhausted so my activity level basically dropped to zero during IVF, so I know that was part of it. Also, my kids ended up tiny, so I'm sure there are singletons out there that ended up heavier than their combined weights! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-did-you-gain-in-your-pregnancy/page/2#post-2277007 Sun, 30 Aug 2015 12:37:09 +0000 GrapeCrush 2277007@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>40 with #1, about 20 with #2.

With my pregnancy that ended at 22w in December I had put on 10 pounds and haven't lost any :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-did-you-gain-in-your-pregnancy/page/2#post-2276857 Sat, 29 Aug 2015 22:13:11 +0000 Mamasig 2276857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About 40 pounds with DS1. I was so swollen and was miserable. I didn't eat horrible or anything. It's just what my body did. With DS2, I gained about 30 pounds - not really sure. I did have GD and watched what I ate a bit more. For reference, I'm 5'2" with a smallish frame. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-did-you-gain-in-your-pregnancy/page/2#post-2276855 Sat, 29 Aug 2015 22:09:53 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2276855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lo1- about 30<br /> Lo2- so far 14, I'm 34w. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-did-you-gain-in-your-pregnancy/page/2#post-2276839 Sat, 29 Aug 2015 21:31:58 +0000 travelgirl1 2276839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: I'll join the fatty club.

Lost it all by my 6week check up.<br /> I don't know what to attribute it all to. Active during pregnancy, healthy cravings (milk, salad), adversions to anything fried until 36w, and then EBF a baby that is now at the 90th % for weight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-did-you-gain-in-your-pregnancy/page/2#post-2276758 Sat, 29 Aug 2015 16:10:28 +0000 kgbee 2276758@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About 25lbs with the first, and am on track to gain about 25-30lbs with the second as well!

I lost weight during IVF, I had been wondering if it was the shots/hormones. Still managed to gain more than you with a singleton though :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-did-you-gain-in-your-pregnancy#post-2276671 Sat, 29 Aug 2015 12:50:47 +0000 erinpye 2276671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had trouble gaining due to HG, and lost at the beginning with both. I lost again at the end with DD2-- I was sicker the second time. Overall I ended up 30 lbs with DD1, 18 lbs with DD2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-did-you-gain-in-your-pregnancy#post-2276667 Sat, 29 Aug 2015 12:43:11 +0000 lovehoneybee 2276667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>19, but I lost 15 in the first trimester so I ended up only 4 above my pre-pregnancy weight. But I put on over 50 in his first year :silly: </p> <p>I managed to lose that, and started out at the same pre-pregnancy weight with this one. I'm up 5 at 23 weeks. </p>
