Im in second trimester and the scale has barely moved so far, getting a bit worried if baby is growing ok. Curious when does the real weight gain actually start? trying to understand what's normal.
Most of the weight comes on in the second and third trimesters as the baby grows fast. First trimester I barely gained anything both times. Your doctor tracks the healthy range for you at each visit.
The later months is when it really adds up. Because I had gd I watched my gain closely with my doctor. Steady gain is the aim, sudden jumps are worth flagging to your gynac.
