I'm 36wks and have gained 35 lbs. My doc says that I'm am doing just fine with my weight. I guess it all depends on what your starting weight was...  however this app says I've gained an "excessive" amount. Hahaha

Oh ok that explains it I'm tall to and my doctor on Friday was telling me that even though we're tall and prolly don't look as pregnant or gained that much weight that we could still be carrying a 10 lb baby I was shocked to hear that but it makes sense!

I havent really gained much weight. So far nothing has been said. I lost 8lb in first trimester and have finally go back to my 6 week weight. I have put on about 2lbs and I am 24 weeks. Not sure if this helps but as long as u are not starving ur body and eating good hopefully u should be ok

I'm 6ft tall.. I had an ultrasound at 30wks and baby weighed a little over 4lbs. My other son was 9lbs 7oz when born so I'm expecting this baby to be around the same:)

I've had horrible vomiting during my entire 15 weeks. I've actually lost 32lbs which is causing a huge concern. I eat well, healthy, 5-6 meals a day but for some reason I've been loosing weight.

I'm 30wks as of tomorrow and I've only gained 9lbs more than my prepregnancy weight so far. That's less than normal but I lost 9lbs first trimester :(
My doc isn't worried...she says I need 1lb a week until the end and I've been doing that so far. How about you?
