Hey Jooster I am 38 and 17 weeks pregnant you will be fine !!!! xxx

I'm 17 weeks and have already gained 1 stone! I'm terrified I'm gonna end up enormous!

I'm in week 21 and i've put on 6kg, all over! Hopefully it'll continue to be gradual and i won't become too huge making it harder to lose after! Clearly i'm not as lucky as these other posts!

I am 23 weeks now and i havent put any weight on but i am getting a bump!

hi im 21 weeks and have put on nearly 2 stone ive done nothing but eat this time i only put 2 stone on through the whole pregnancy last time but this time im gonna be enormous people keep asking me if im having twins cheeky devils

im 17 weeks pregnant and havent gained any weight yet glad im not the only one.

Hi, I'm 30 weeks pregnant and have put on 10lbs. I lost two stone before trying to get pregnant so I wouldn't have so much to loose after but was still 1.5 over weight. My BMI is 28 so I'm still in the 'normal weight gain' zone. I have eaten loads while being pregnant, surprised I haven't put on much more. Everyone keeps commenting how neat my bump is - not after dinner it isn't!

Hiya, I'm 29 weeks and 4 days pregnant today. Feeling good. This is my first baby and I haven't got any particular cravings for anything unusual, though trying to eat healthily as much as possible. I have been told that being pregnant suits me and I've been told I'm looking well. Not touching weighing scales at the moment though, think it best to just concentrate on the here and now and staying healthy. I'm doing aquanantal and also swimming once or twice a week.

Only time I do get weighed actually, is when i see my midwife, but apart from that ......... no lol

my weight has gone up and down since i fell pregnant am 19 weeks now sometimes bump is big other times there is nothing there x

im 15 weeks and weigh 11stone ive put on about 6lb and not likin it i keep tellin myself it will be worth it in the end at the begin i was losin weight now i should be so lucky,

I am 11 wks and I've lost alittle weight but I've been told its ok as my BMI is 27 so I've got alittle extra on my body, I take Pregnacare plus which I was told by midwife and by doctor is good for me, but I am alittle worried as I have an eating problem and only eat one meal a day, but sometimes will eat alittle more and its all healthly food too. At least with the multi-vitamin is giving my baby what it needs and my midwife is keeping an eye on me.

I'm 22 weeks, and i lost nearly a stone when i fell on, but i've slowly gone back up to my starting weight over the last month. However, after weighing myself this morning, it appears i've very suddenly gained half a stone!!!

Has this happened to anyone else or i my body just really weird :s

I am at week 37 and have put on 28lb eek!!, lots of walking for me once little man arrives

My BMI to start was 19.5, and I've fluctuated between my starting weight and 2-4lbs weight gain. It yo-yos from week to week. I'm 12 weeks, and should have put at least a few pounds on by now? I have no idea why it keeps disappearing - I have a healthy diet, and I'm not exactly ignoring my cravings. Is anyone else struggling like this?

i'm 13 weeks pregnant with my 7th baby and had not lost the weight i'd gained of the 6th he is 6 months i'm now 13st witha bmi of 33 and i'm very concerned about this pregnancy i've always been a healthy weight when i'm pregnant and am terrified how big i'll go and what could happen with the baby now i'm big. i'm trying to watch what i eat but i don't want this one to go without

im just gone 31 weeks and have put on 2 and a half, almost three stone!! its my first baby and im realy worried ive put on too much weight :( , keep getting asked if im having twins, its embarassing.

Hi im 18 weeks pregnant gained no weight at all up to 12 weeks had no morning sickness at all, have gained 9lbs which I think is ok I wasnt skinny to start and I seem to be all bump at the moment good lcuk everyone xx

Hi all, really good to know there are others out there with similar stories to mine! I was really concerned to start with about how much weight i should be gaining and when as i had the mis-conception that you didnt gain much till the third trimester! i have since read in many different places that between weeks 15-20 its not unusal to very quickly gain between 5-15lbs! Im now 19 weeks and have only gained 4lbs so far so i feel alot better about it. I also already have quite a substantial bump but then when my mum was pregnant with me and my sister she had a very big bump too so i was expecting that! I havent had morning sickness at all thank god and i also haven't been ignorning my cravings for sweets very much! I generally eat quite healthily though with lots of fruit and veg and cereal and yoghurt every morning for brekkie. It's hard not to worry about the amount of weight your putting on, especially after working really hard to loose 2 1/2 stone last year, but i don't think there is a huge amount you can do about it anyway so just try and eat healthy and get some gentle exercise going and don't stress too much about it! Hope all goes well for everyone x

I am 17 weeks and have put on (at least) 13 kilos (28+ lb) since conception.. I wasnt a skinny girl before I got pregnant but this is RIDICULOUS!!!! Think the point is - as long as the doctors are happy (or should I say UNconcerned) with your progress/gain/loss then dont worry about it..!! :)

Hi, im 23 weeks and i've lost a stone since becoming pregnant from sickness but it stopped @ 20wks. I still haven't gained any weight even though i am now eating a healthy diet but my bump is massive compared to this stage i was at with my first but i was exactly the same when i was pregnant with my son. I gained 1stone 4lb with my first by the end, just eat healthy and dont over eat cause it is so hard to lose it after and its not good for the baby etc. Enjoy ladies xxx

I'm 14 weeks and I've put on about half a stone so far. It is my first so I was a bit worried when I started showing at 6 weeks. I went for a scan at the EPU and they assured me there was only 1 baby & that everything was fine. When I finally had my 12 week scan most people in work said they'd known for ages as it was so obvious. One woman even assumed it was my 20 week scan! It certainly took all the fun out of telling everyone. I hope bump doesn't get too huge as I'm worried it will mean a more difficult labour.

I am 7 weeks and just found out from EPU that im expecting TWINS!!!! Didnt expect that. Ive always been quite slim but have a small bump already is this normal? With my son I only put a stone on in total and you couldnt really tell i was pregnant until 5/6 months. Getting concerned

Good article

I am 19 weeks tomorrow and I am overweight but have lost 50 pounds since getting pregnant. I eat healthy, the only change I have done since being pregnant is cut out most sugary drinks. I always eat fresh fruit and veg, I did suffer from morning sickness up until 18 weeks, I have learned to eat much less in a meal and eat much slower or else I get sick even still. The doctor doesn't seem to be overly concerned about the weigh loss due to other complications but I'm not starving myself so i am wondering why i am still loosing weight.

Hi all!!
I am just over twelve weeks with my first baby and Ive put on a stone already making me 12st 3lb. Im not too worried as I have given up smoking for the first time in my life so I am very pleased with myself and feel loads better for it. My midwife said this is fine as its mostly fluid and big boobs that are making up most of the extra weight!!!!!

hi im 17 weeks and 4 days and so far i have put on 11lb. this is my third pregnancy and am more worried about weight gain this time around compared with my other 2. with my last 2 pregnancies i gained around 3 stone. i am carrying all front so bump is quite big. im just hoping my bump isnt going to be huge!

Hi I'm 36 weeks and I have put on weight 13 kilos is that still ok.
