no weight gain in last couple weeks

hi guys, my weight gain was tracking along to some tables I got off the net. It has a minimum, average and maximum column giving you estimates of how much you can expect to healthily gain during pregnancy. I know that people are different etc but up to now I have been tracking along with their recommendations. I haven't purposefully watched what I eat, it just so happens that I gain at the same rates as what they recommend. Ok long story short. I haven't gained any weight in the last 2 or so weeks. I don't know if I should be worried about it. I have been eating and baby is still kicking me as always. Should I be worried about it or just accept that he is using up what I am putting in my mouth. Oh I am 27 weeks now and not skinny/overweight when I started. Any thoughts?

I am just about to hit 20 weeks and so far have put on nothing.. was bit worried about it but my midwife is very pleased - so i am just going with the flow..

everything is fine so far

i am not skinny either so enough for bubs to use LOL

Ditch the charts and listen to what your body is telling you - which I think you are already picking up on when you say that baby is probably using up what you are putting in your mouth.

I didn't step on a scale for the majority of my pregnancy, so from about 12 weeks onwards I had no idea what I weighed.

Every woman is different, and so what they gain during any given pregnancy is going to be different - if we were all average life would be pretty boring, and besides, some of us have to fall outside of 'average' or there would be no average!

Try not to focus too much on weight gain, my midwife never weighed me because she said it wasn't an acurate indicator of how things were going. I lost 10kg in the first 16 weeks due to severe morning sickness and was really worried but everything turned out fine. As long as baby is kicking and your midwife isn't worried then I wouldn't be :)

I was being weighed at my OB appointments and I started off 2kg heavier then I was at 27+weeks - and that's even with a 2lb 8oz baby, plus placenta, fluid etc on board!
I too was worried but no one else was!

I wouldn't worry unless your midwife or OB is

I am 28 weeks and have lost 2.3 kgs in the last couple of weeks and I have by no means been starving myself. Although I have plenty of reserves for the baby to feast off me for weeks

Like others have said, stop worrying about the weight gain or lack of it, if you baby is still active and you are eating then dont let the numbers on the scale scare you.

Everyones different I guess, I wouldnt worry as long as you are being healthy. I didnt put on any weight from 24 weeks through until this week (32) and I have just noticed I have put on a kg this week...but bubs has been growing the whole time, as in my measurements have been consistent.

I am 37+ weeks and have been losing weight the last 2 months but have been eating healthy and being very active. Bubs is right on track thou and is measuring 9.8 pounds for birth. Have put on just under 10kg the whole pregnancy. I know its natural in your last trimester to lost weight... Just speak to your midwife if you think its too much hun (-:

I was steadily putting on weight until about 35 weeks, and since then I've put on nothing at all!
