but how much weight did u guys gain during your pregnancy? Especially towars the end? Im up 45 lbs already and have no idea how the hell i gained 6lbs. in 2 weeks. Im 36w5d and since my son was born at 36 weeks, i dont know how much weight you gain the last 2-3 weeks. Im having a c-section Oct. 2nd or so, but i REALLY hope she comes a little before that...my hip is killing me!!! Also, i've gotten new stretch marks...do they keep coming after 36 weeks? Please say NO!!!!!!!!!!

i gained 40 pounds. but i had her at 35 weeks. i think you can get stretch marks up until they are out of you. i swear i got stretch marks on the night i went into labor.

I gained 36lbs with my son. All from 28 weeks on. I got a few stretchmarks at about 38 weeks (I had him @ 39) and they are completely gone now.

I gained 20 pounds and only had stretch marks where my belly piercing is and on my ass and boobs, but i think those are scratch marks.

oh, c'mon zoey...those barely qualify for stretch marks...u probably can even see them unless u look for em

I'm 28 weeks and I've gained 24 pounds. the last time I was weighed before yesterday was August 9th and then I had only gained 16 pounds. But I'm mostly baby and my doctor doesn't think I'll break 40 pounds b.c I'm going to be a c-section mommy for medical reason. As for the stretch marks, I just got my first one last week, but my mom said that you can get them right up till the day you deliver. Hers are gone now, but for like 2 years after she had my sis you could see them if you looked hard enough. It mostly depends on your body.

I'm 36+5 too and I've gained 5 pounds. I was really sick in the beginning though. My belly is huge and I have a ton of stretch marks so I don't really understand how I've only gained 5 pounds, but the Dr said the weight transfered from other areas of my body to my belly. I'm just afraid this is going to be one big baby!!

Oh and with Noah I gained 10 pounds and had stretch marks up the wazzo. And they never went away

With my first pregnancy I gained 35 pounds of weight and 35 pounds of fluid from preeclampsia. That 35 pounds of fluid was all in less than a month, I was swollen from head to toe and got stretch marks like you wouldn't believe. My entire stomach is covered, I can only imagine what's going to happen during this pregnancy with the marks. I delievered at 38 weeks so weeks so who knows if i would have gained more. Good luck!

I'm 29+1 and have only gained 19lbs so far. I'm trying to stay under 30, but we'll see. I have stretch marks all over the bottom half of my stomach. I didn't see any new ones for a month or two, but I just noticed last week they are starting to creep up above my belly button. I absolutely hate em! I feel like a greased up pig with all the belly butter and stretch mark lotion I put on, and I don't think it does a thing! I'm sure it will help after he's born.

I am a little overweight so my first digit in weight will be a "?".... But here's how my weight went during pregnancy.

Started out at ?25. Because I couldnt eat ANYTHING in those first few months I lost 20lbs, bringing me down to ?05....

Then around 4 months I finaly started gaining weight... by the time I got to the end, I was up to ?45. Gaining most of it in the last 10 weeks.

When I had her I lost an automatic 30lbs. So after having her I was ?15 - and since I have lost at least 20lbs more.

So I guess you could say I gained 40lbs, but in reality I was only 20lbs more in the end than I was in the beggining. My weight was all screwed up!

But to answer your question, Yes. Most of my weight gain was in the last 10 weeks!

As for stretch marks... I didnt get any because I was already a big girl. You couldnt even tell I was pregnant unti about 7 months.....

and yess you can see them LOL it looks like a tiger grabbed my ass!

Name: vane20 | Date: Sep 16th, 2007 4:40 AM
noahsmama...5lbs the whole pregnancy??? that's so crazy!!!

oh and automansgirl....i had a few stretch marks on the lower half of my belly from my last pregnancy....but now they're as you said it "creeping up" to the top...hell they're already there, and they all came in about a month, i think it was around 30 weeks and ur right....all those stupid creams and oils dont do anything....I HATE my stomach, and what sucks the most is that i wanted a tummy tuck, but that only removes the ones UNDER your belly button...so im still gonna have alot left if i go under the knife. Damn the genes...

I gained 60 lbs with my daughter. (I started off at 144 lbs)I lost 20 right after her birth and the rest came off slowly with the help of nursing. By 5 months, I had lost all of it, and continued to lose an additional few pounds in the next couple months following that. I gained weight fairly steadily throughout, but felt horrible when the scale topped the 200 lbs mark and kept climbing!

I gained 35lbs with my first pregnancy and with this pregnancy I have gained 30lbs. I still have 3 more weeks to go. 

Name: K8 | Date: Sep 19th, 2007 1:15 AM
With my first I weighed 11 lbs more the day I gave birth than the day i found out i was pregnant ; lost 22 lbs in the first 16 weeks b/c I was so sick... so i guess i gained 33 lbs. This time around I am at 30 weeks and I still am not back up to my pre-pregnancy weight (in fact had an OB check-up today and had lost 2 lbs since the last one 2 weeks ago). But I was WAAAAY sicker this time and lost 22 lbs in the first 12 weeks, kept losing, probably lost a total of 30+ lbs altogether. Stretch marks were HORRIBLE with first preg. not so bad this time around. And when it comes to belly button rings, I recommend NEVER having it pierced if you plan on having kids! My worst and most painful stretch mark spread up from my piercing scar, almost like the skin needed/wanted to stretch and said "hey, this is a nice place to do it..." OUCH!
