Just curious as to how much weight y'all gained each trimester. I am 15w and only up a few pounds, but I have a feeling I am going to start packing them on very soon!

Tri 1: ~10
Tri 2: ~15-20
Tri 3: TBD. I'm 35W and up 43 lb, though. The doc said it is mostly swelling at this point. I'm quite puffy
It's been coming on quite steady, with healthy eating and regular exercise. It is what it is! I'm 5'11", which I think is a big factor, too.

First: 11 Pounds
Second (So far): 7 pounds (17 total)
I had zero nausea and almost constant hunger. Oh well! It's been about a pound a week, so I'm still hoping to end up in the 35 range.

First Trimester: Less than 1 pound
Second Trimester: 8 pounds
Third Trimester: 40 pounds
(But my experience is not typical! I had really high blood pressure and massive swelling at the end.)

1st tri. - lost 9. Had maaaaaasive morning sickness.
2nd - pretty steady. I'd gain and lose about 4 pounds.
3rd - gained 20-25. I lost track at the end. Also gave birth in August, which didn't help.

1st trimester- maybe 5
2nd trimester- 10 pds
3rd trimester- 10 pds
I had LO at 34 weeks, so who knows how much I would have gained in 7 more weeks.

First pregnancy
1st tri - 3 lbs
2nd - 13 lbs
3rd - 14 lbs
This pregnancy I am 12 weeks and have yet to gain a pound, which I think is because I am also breastfeeding!

1st trimester: 15 lbs
2nd trimester (so far, as of 26 weeks): 17 lbs
From weeks 6-18, I had the kind of morning sickness that only lessens if you're actively stuffing your face with carbs. It wasn't kind to me.
GOLD / cantaloupe / 6581 posts
@LazyLightning: Same. I had zero nausea *as long as* I ate carbs all. day. long. Oi.

1st tri about 5 pounds, which didn't really change at my 16 week appt (maybe 1 pound more?). BUT, I think that was artificial because I had been weighed right at the midwife right before I got pregnant and it was the most I'd ever weighed in, I had just eaten lunch, and may have had my shoes on. I took off my shoes for the rest, so it's probably more like 7 or 8 now? As long as the midwife says it's ok I'm not worrying.

1st: 2.6 lbs
2nd: 19.2 lbs
3rd: 15.2 lbs and counting
As of 38 weeks, I'm up 37 lbs. (Goal was to keep it under 25 lbs)
blogger / eggplant / 11551 posts
1st: 0 lbs (I couldn't stomach much)
2nd: 20 lbs
3rd: 8 lbs so far (I only have a few days left)
I'll probably end up gaining about 30 lbs.

First tri: -4
2nd tri: +19
3rd tri: +15 (I went to 40w3d)
So, 30 total up from my original weight. Lost 22lbs by 6w Pp and the rest by about 9w-12w (I fluctuated; it was during holidays).
I could have done much better but chose to be lazy and indulgent. I was bad and didn't sharpen up until I was late in my 3rd tri. Next time, I will make healthy decisions and workout from day 1. I could totally keep it at 20-25.

For LO #1 I gained 42 lbs.
For this current pregnancy I'm up 5 lbs at 21 weeks, Which I'm happy about because I was still up 10 lbs leftover from LO #1 at the start of this pregnancy. Even though I haven't gained much so far, I feel a lot more dumpy and I don't feel preggers cute, like I felt last time. Maybe all my muscles were/are all loose and nonexistent this time, plus the extra 10lbs? oh well!
I'm aiming to stay under 30, so I don't exceed my highest weight from last time:) whatever happens happens!

1st trimester I lost 4-5lbs.
After that I gained literally 1lb per week and delivered at 39 weeks. So I gained about 29lbs total.

I have pretty consistently gained a pound a week through my entire pregnancy - I am hoping not to go too far over 40lbs.

1st tri: ~5 lbs
2nd tri: ~ 14 lbs
Now at 37 weeks I'm up around 27 lbs.. was hoping to keep it under 30 but might not happen since I am growing EXPONENTIALLY each week. I worked out almost daily until, well, today really. My diet hasn't been great but not terrible either. I do feel like I did all I can so my original 'goal' of 25 lbs was just likely not going to happen.

I'm almost 18 weeks, and as of my last appointment, I was up 8 pounds from pre-preg. I'm kind of dreading to see what the scale reads at my next appointment.

I'm 13 weeks tomorrow and have probably put on about 10 pounds so far. It's a little different for me, though, as prior to finding out I was pregnant, I really didn't eat all day--I'd have one small meal at dinner, and...that was it (I know, bad, bad, bad...but I was skinny, so whatever ;). Once I got my BFP however, I obviously ate...and ate a lot. Going from 600 calories once a day, to eating actual full meals multiple times a day was definitely a shock to my metabolism, so I think a good chunk of the weight actually came from that.
I also had ZERO morning sickness of any kind/no food aversions at all thus far, and was/am starving 24/7.

I gained about 10 pounds the first trimester, 15 the second, 10ish the third. I had GD so my weight gain slowed down a lot near the end once I was cutting down on sweets/walking.
