True, but some people don't gain any weight during 1st tri, some gain a little and some mores  s o 2-3 lbs/mo is a breakdown of lm 25-35lbs overall u I dont .know yboy who has only gained 2-3bls every month especiallyar the end. Yup, we are all different. My BP is fine, I don't have DM or fam Hx of DM, and my labs are WNL. This phone is messing up my spelling and adding extras, excuse

they say 2-3 lbs a month is healthy, but everyone's bodies are different.

That is a bit much but I'm going to guess that some of that is from bloating.

Honestly, I'd only be worried about stretch marks from gaining weight too fast....but you will probably get them either way even if you don't gain that much, so enjoy being preggers! Lol.
