Weight Gain
Does anyone know "roughly" how much weight your mean to gain when?? I've heard that some people have put on about 3 or 4 stone during pregnancy but at what stages? I'm 24 weeks and have put on a stone....want to know if this is normal or if I'm eating too much! x
BTW- I was 12 stone at the start of the pregnancy and I'm normally a size 14. Don't know if it matters what size you are to begin with....?

I am now just over 15 weeks and I am a stone lighter than before I was pregnant. I dont think that you putting on a stone is a lot. You are over half way after all. If you were at my stage and had gained a stone then maybe it would be that you were eating a bit too much!
I dont think you have anything to worry about.
when people say 'you have to eat for two' I think its nonsense. Your body just takes what it needs from what you eat. The baby isnt eating 'food' so why on earth would you need to to eat double?
I think some people are just unlucky with lots of weight gain or just eating too much. I am plus size and can gain weight at the drop of a hat when im not pregant, but when im pregnant I dont get much.
figure that one out!!
She reckoned that some women put on loads whilst others lose weight whilst pregnant and that she would ignore anything to do with weight unless someone was either incredibly under or overweight at original booking in appointment.
I wouldn't worry too much! xxx
