I gained 44 pounds total and lost 30 by 3 weeks post partum.<br /> And now for the last 14... (8 weeks pp now) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-gaining-weight#post-232092 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 10:20:58 +0000 T.H.O.U. 232092@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think around then I was still slowly gaining (I actually lost during first tri). I know the pounds may not have shown up on the scale but I know inches wise I was still getting a lot bigger up until the end. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-gaining-weight#post-232085 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 10:19:46 +0000 bushelandapeck 232085@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been holding steady the past 2 weeks as well, despite feeling more hungry and heavier. I can't imagine I won't gain at least another pound or so in the next two weeks but maybe not. I've only gained 21lbs so far. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-gaining-weight#post-232084 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 10:17:56 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 232084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After 37 weeks I actually lost 1 lb. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-gaining-weight#post-232075 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 10:14:38 +0000 Chastenet 232075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@skipra: No, I just saw my midwife yesterday and she didn't say anything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-gaining-weight#post-232042 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 09:55:06 +0000 skipra 232042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alivoo01: That's what I thought too but most things I read say that you normally stop gaining weight towards the end, even though the baby is still growing. I guess because you just can't eat as much? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-gaining-weight#post-232040 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 09:53:59 +0000 skipra 232040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119 @Mrsbells @rachiecakes: That is not what I was hoping to hear! :) </p> <p>@Chastenet: I'm almost 33 weeks and put on a little too much the past few weeks as well, so I'm really hoping it will stabilize too. Did the doctors say anything about not gaining recently? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-gaining-weight#post-231984 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 09:21:25 +0000 Chastenet 231984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll be 38 weeks tomorrow and my weight has been steady for the past 3 weeks or so. I'm very happy about this because I put on like 5kilos of mostly water weight between 30-35 weeks, so I'm glad to see it stabilize! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-gaining-weight#post-231981 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 09:18:44 +0000 rachiecakes 231981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I definitely gained until the very end. I got my only stretchmarks around week 37-38, a small patch on my left thigh. I know that the baby was still growing, too because at that point I had weekly ultrasounds. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-gaining-weight#post-231977 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 09:16:38 +0000 Alivoo01 231977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No personal experience, but I heard the baby gains about pound a week starting the last month of pregnancy, so I would think you'd continue to "gain" weight up until delivery. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-gaining-weight#post-231976 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 09:16:35 +0000 Mrsbells 231976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gained weight to the very end also, i gained a lot of weight at the end. My OB said some people lose weight in the end of gain very littlebecause they feel fuller due to their belly being cramped by the baby. I didnt have this issue I was hungrier than ever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-gaining-weight#post-231965 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 09:11:07 +0000 chopsuey 231965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gained weight until the very end :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-gaining-weight#post-231923 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 08:58:20 +0000 skipra 231923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've heard that you shouldn't gain much or any weight after 36-37 weeks. I'm just wondering if that is accurate. What was your experience? </p>
