how much weight should i gain in the second trimester of my pregnancy with twins
A. The healthy weight gain during pregnancy rate should be: 4 pounds during the first trimester. If underweight, add 1 pound. 1 pound per week thereafter. Add Â¼ pound if underweight. During the last month, itâs normal to gain less even though baby is still gaining. Average weight gain is 1-2 pounds, although that can vary. Most women gain weight during the second trimester, which coincides with the period of most rapid weight gain of baby (from 1 ounce to 2 pounds). Itâs not abnormal to bounce up 5 to 10 pounds quickly between 15 and 20 weeks of pregnancy.
