My first pregnancy,

start 125lbs
low 115lbs
end 138lbs - Baby arrived 5 weeks early.
finally gained weight when I started Zofran at 18 weeks. All my weight must have been water because I lost 20lbs within 10 days of delivery.

2nd pregnancy,

I am up to 120lbs, I have gained 10lbs in 17 weeks, I am so proud!I am not throwing up, and I am able to force myself to eat despite the severe food adversions. I am so lucky :mrgreen:

I lost 15 lbs while pg. I was losing around a pound a week until my doctor hospitalized me and told me not to return to work. With 6 months of partial bedrest, I managed to gain back the 15 lbs and an additional 15 lbs. So I was 15 lbs above pre-pg when I delivered. However, I had pre-eclampsia and was very swollen, and the baby weighed 8 lbs 5 oz. I lost the 15 lbs in less than a week.

Pre-pregnancy I weighed 124. I went down to 114 in the first trimester, and eventually gained that back plus some more to 140. But at the end, I started losing again, and was 134 at delivery and 120 before I got out of the hospital.

First preg
Before: 118lbs (54kg) lowest 105 lbs (48kg)

Second preg
Before: 114lbs (52kg) lowest 90 lbs (41kg)

I plan on TTC soon, but after each preg I've got lighter and can't gain weight. I'm currently 103lbs (47kg) and am trying to gain at least 5 kg as I'm terrified of dropping below 88lbs (40kg). I don't know if it's just me, but since having HG I struggle to eat large amounts without feeling nauseous - my appetite has never been the same.

1st:

start - 115 lbs
lowest - 97 lbs
highest - 136 lbs (after a good regimen of meds)
after - 122 lbs
1 yr. pp - 97 lbs

2nd:

start - 97 lbs
lowest - 94 lbs
highest - 123 lbs (120.5 lbs at delivery)
after - 110 lbs.
10 mo. pp - 97 lbs.

i have never been able to gain back the weight that i lost with my first pg. i hate that i look anorexic now because i've lost so much muscle and fat. i try to joke with my husband that Davis stole my butt and Jared stole my boobs. if you don't laugh you'll cry kind of thing. (bit of a vent here: just 'cause i try to laugh at it doesn't mean my sister gets to pick on me for it, or DH had to tell me to be glad i don't need my missing bra, or that i feel comfortable in public without my bra to at least give the impression i have boobs still.)

Re: How much did you weigh ...

I don't remember exactly my pre-preggie weight, but here's my guess:

Pre-pg: 158
Lowest weight: 145
Current weight at 24 weeks: 177

I ate a lot of pastries and simple carbs (they stayed down), but have been cautioned to adhere to more protein-heavy foods and less simple carbs. My midwife said that I should consider what I eat in the 3rd trimester to be what I am birthing during labor. That was helpful, as I have a tall husband and small babies don't run in my family.

First preg:

Pre-preg-167 healthy weight as I am 5'10"

Lowest-152

2 days before birth-182

Second preg, current

Pre- 179 the day of test confirmation, I really think my body knew what was coming as I gained about 5 pounds upon conceiving

Lowest-162 at 16 weeks, started zofran and iv fluids

Currently- 187 32.5 weeks

Hoping that after birth I can maintain a weight in the 165-170 range as that would be healthy for me.

So I had baby at 38weeks 3.7days. My weight hit 205lbs. So a 26lb gain over pre-preg. Baby weighed 7lbs 12.5oz. My weight gain was almost if not actually entirely baby related as 5 days postpartum I weighed 181-182.
