did anyone put alot of weight on carry twins. ive put 3stone on but everyone tells me im not very big for carrying twins. both twins weigh at the moment just under 6lb.

I only put on 33 lbs. total (less than I did with my singleton where I gained 40 lbs.). The twins were 6 lb. 4 oz. and 7 lb. when they were born. I'm not sure what 3 stone is equal to. I measured 48 weeks (for a singleton) when I delivered at 38 weeks, 1 day.

there are 14lbs in each stone so she put on 42lbs!!

Well, I put on 50+ pounds and my babies were tiny preemies. I was only 11 pounds lighter a week after the c-section. They do say it is probably better to gain a bit too much rather than too little when gestating twins though the weight should come from a good diet.

There are suggested amounts of weight that a women should gain if she is carrying twins, triplets, etc. I feel that if you eat a healthy diet - lots of protein, calcium, vitamins then you will be fine. Example - I only gained 40 lbs and my babies were born at 32 weeks weighing just about 5 lbs each. BIG babies and I really didn't gain a tremendous amount of weight. good luck

30 lbs, my twins were each 5 lbs. Took 3 weeks for me to reach my before baby weight, b___st feeding two does wonders.
