where does all that weight go?

Where does all the extra weight go?

Here is an approximate breakdown of your weight gain:

Baby: 7-8 pounds

Placenta: 1-2 pounds

Amniotic fluid: 2 pounds

Uterus: 2 pounds

Maternal breast tissue: 2 pounds

Maternal blood : 4 pounds

Fluids in maternal tissue: 4 pounds

I was at the doctors earlier and I have only gained 12 lbs from pre pregnancy and I am almost 37 weeks. So I wanted to see where all the weight went and this is what I found  hope you all find this interesting.

Maternal fat and nutrient stores: 7 pounds

I gained 70. I know exactly where it went. TO MY ASS!

Haha! With my first I gained 60 so I know EXACTLY how you feel....I liked having a little bit of junk in the ol' trunk;) plus the girls were bigger too!

I gained 40lbs when I was pregnant, I was horrified. I had excess amniotic fluid though, and I was super super swollen but other than that it was just because of my hormonal eating and lack of exercise lol.

I gained 70 lbs with each pregnancy... 2 of my babies were 6lbs and under... it went to my ass and thighs... regular measurments my ass is 38inches at 9 months preg it was 45inches I think its 5lbs for every inch?? *not sure* sooo that was 35lbs just in my ass   lol

I know when I delivered I instantly dropped 20lbs... that was always nice, till I seen the other 50lbs just *around* lol
