Maintaining good weight/rant

Ok soo, the first 3 1/2 months I couldn't keep anything down, not even water! My nausea has kept with me my whole pregnancy. In total I lost 40lbs.
I am a ftm, 30+3 had my checkup yesterday I've gained 7lbs back.
The biggest I had ever been was in the beginning of my pregnancy.
I know you're supposed to gain weight and what not, but it has felt so good to have all that weight gone!!!!
My boobs are getting so swollen &heavy, its starting to get aggravating. I'm all belly and can still fit into jeans without a prob.
I'm not gunna lie tho, I'm terrified to gain it all back these last 67days. I don't eat like a pig or crazy amounts, but some days I eat and a little while later I'm hungry again. Its a little frustrating, but I try to eat healthy and walk 3xs a week.
I guess it could be worse, some friends of mine gained between 50-80lbs. Still the thought of all that extra weight added scares me. Im 20lbs away from my normal weight and after the baby I am def going to try to get back to that goal!

O and if ur boobs really hurt go invest in a new bra with padded straps a wide band and just a little bit of padding in the cups to help hold the weight of ur girls
