Doc wasn't concerned as my belly was always measuring fine. She would've done a growth ultrasound at 37 weeks but I gained a pound or something that week. Baby was born at 39+5 at 7lbs 6oz </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/second-tri-and-not-gaining-weight#post-2466833 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 17:28:44 +0000 fussygal 2466833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think that's pretty normal. With both of my pregnancies I didn't really put on more than 5 lbs until around 20 weeks. End of second and third is when my body seems to pack it on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/second-tri-and-not-gaining-weight#post-2466815 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 17:18:36 +0000 gingerbebe 2466815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started this pregnancy up 10 pounds heavier than normal. I'm 26 weeks and I've gained a total of 8 pounds. I think that's only like 3 for this trimester so far. My doctor says I'm doing great! I gained 15 with my first. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/second-tri-and-not-gaining-weight#post-2466812 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 17:16:04 +0000 autumnlove 2466812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gained at the end of my second and throughout the third tri for my pregnancies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/second-tri-and-not-gaining-weight#post-2466807 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 17:11:53 +0000 LAZB 2466807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pinkcupcake: With both of my pregnancies, I lost 7ish lbs in the first trimester (wasn't sick ever, just lost weight for some reason), and only started gaining back late in the second trimester. My doctor wasn't concerned, and I had a big belly. I ended up making up for it though, I gained about 35 lbs each time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/second-tri-and-not-gaining-weight#post-2466801 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 17:08:02 +0000 mrsjyw 2466801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only gained 1 lb the early half of second trimester and ended up making up for it later on, ended at 33lbs for the pregnancy with much of that In the third trimester. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/second-tri-and-not-gaining-weight#post-2466790 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 17:02:04 +0000 pinkcupcake 2466790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>anyone experience very slow / sporadic / little weight gain during second tri? Is it something worth being concerned about?</p> <p>I'm at 20 weeks and am about 4-5 lbs over pre-pregnancy weight (but I started off about 10 lbs heavier than my ideal weight). I gained about a pound or two during first tri, and in the 6 weeks since second tri has started, have only gained another 2-3 lbs or so. </p> <p>I have an appt coming up next week so will bring it up to my OB but I was steadily gaining a LB a week with my first since week 13. </p>
