In my first pregnancy I wasn't really even showing until 6 months and I was around 61kg.  Then by the time I was 38 weeks I was at 98kg and swollen up like a balloon. Alot of it was fluid and straight after the birth I lost around 11-12  kg.

I'm 19+4 and gained 13 pounds! I feel so fat! When I saw that on my last appt. I was like "HOLY ****!" The Dr. laughed at me and said that I should be where I'm at on the pounds. So I know how you feel.

@ one of my dr appt...they said i was on track to being overweight and that i shouldnt be eating whatever i wanted when i wanted. they also said that u should gain 25 lbs the whole pregnancy which i passed. i asked others on this forum and alot of them said that they also gained more than the 25 lbs and it wasnt as bad as my dr made it seem

I didn't gain anything for the first 16weeks or so but then I've now gained 47lb and I'm 37weeks so for me it was nothing then 3 to 5 every week when your not supposed to gain that much. My max I was supposed to gain was 25 I'm almost double that so just ignore it do the best you can and then say screw it lol
