It's different for everyone. Think mine came from about 30 weeks onwards.

My BMI was only 20 (size 6/8 pre-preg) so I can put on upto 18kg I think and I've put on 13 upto now! Mine seems to be all bump and baby though, everything else is still same size!! YAY!!

I try not to worry about it, main thing is a healthy baby!! Will worry about my figure when she arrives!

Everyone is so different and it depends on so many things...

It will mainly depend on what you weighed to begin with, what you eat, how active you are, whether you get much sickness, whether you retain much fluid.

I put on nothing until week 16, then gained most of my weight (about 10lbs) during second tri, then about 6lbs so far in the third tri, but I may have lost 2lbs of that again (i.e. "after Christmas natural weight loss as diet returns to more normal"...). I appear to be on about 14lbs total weight gain at 38 weeks (I started at 9st 10lbs pre-pregnancy, now about 10st 10lbs).

If your midwife is happy and providing you eat mainly sensibly and stay pretty mobile... that is all that matters
