My second Pregnancy(only 4 weeks along though)- Pre Pregnancy 129
Did you gain more or less weight with second pregnancy? Did you show sooner?
A. My first pregnancy: Pre (128-too skinny for my height though), 40 weeks, 2 days (155, gained 27 lbs)
My second pregnancy: Pre (140-again I was slightly underweight), 39 weeks (220, gained 80 lbs)
My third pregnancy: Pre (230-now overweight!), 36 weeks, 6 days (230, no gain)
Now I am back around 180...only about 15 lbs from where I would look and feel best. I am just shy of 6 feet tall. I showed the soonest with baby number two. But baby number three I never showed much at all. I had some serious complications with my second and was on tons of meds for my liver. It was why I probably gained so much and lost none afterward.

Did eating too many sweets make you have a big baby?
Q. I think I'm addicted to carbs and sugar! I love to eat italian bread, pasta, ice cream, and other sweets. Since I've been pregnant it seems to be worse (for awhile I was eating a McFlurry a day). I still eat a good variety of fruits and veggies, and my weight gain has been mostly in my belly. I'm at the end of my pregnancy (40+5) and I'm afraid I'll have trouble delivering. Did anyone have a similar situation?
A. It will affect how big you get, but not how big your baby gets. The size of the baby is about genetics not what you ate.
How many weeks is the average woman pregnant?
Q. I know that a full term pregnancy is 40 weeks. What I want to know is how long the average pregnancy lasts. (specifically, 1st pregnancies in the United States)
Do woman in the US tend to deliver on time, or a little early or late?
Do woman in the US tend to deliver on time, or a little early or late?
A. Well, all I can find is stats for full-term vs. pre-term births. Since full-term is considered anything after 37 weeks, it's hard to know. I imagine most babies are born between 36-42 weeks. Most doctors won't let a woman go more than 2 weeks late, and most will try to stop labor before 36 weeks.
how much weight does a baby gain in the last weeks of pregnancy?
Q. I am 35 weeks and 2 days and the doctor estimated that my baby weighed somewhere around 4 pounds and 13 ounces. She said that he is small for his gestational age. I was wondering how much weight do baby's usually gain in the last weeks of pregnancy (35-40 weeks) ??
A. No matter his weight he will be fine. My daughter was born at 38 weeks and was only 6lbs, she has had no problems. She is still very small but the doctors are not concerned because she has hit every milestone, either on time or early. To answer your question they can gain about an oz a day in the last month. So stop fretting your little guy would be fine. Good luck!
