27 weeks weight gain

Hi guys...just interested...I am 27 weeks with my first and I have gained 12 kilos...WHOAH!
my GF is 33 weeks and she has gained the same amount.
I originally weighed 62 and I am quite short but anyone else find this weight gain challenging?

Hey, I think everyone is different with the gain weight gain thing. Some women retain more fluid than others. I gained 12kg all up and by the time I left hospital and got back home I was only 5kg from my pre-pregnancy weight. As long as you eat healthy and exercise reguarly, there's nothing more you can do. Just try not to stress. You'll be surprised how quickly you lose most of it after bub is born smile

You were small to begin with, with my DD1 I weighed 63 at 6 weeks pregnant and by 40 weeks I weighed 85kg. After bub was born I was around 68kgs at my 6 week postnatal check-up. With DD2 I weighed 70kgs and when she was born at 39 weeks I weighed 81kgs, postnatal check-up I was back to my pre-pregnancy weight.

Like pp says don't worry to much, some women retain more fluid and as long as you are eating healthy( apart from the occasional indulgence) and getting some exercise you will be fine:)

My DD2 is now 8months old and I am at 65kgs smile
