I'm 29.2 weeks and have gained 25 which was what I gained total with my daughter... and the crazy thing is I'm eating and exercising better this time!!! Dr isn't too concerned because my calories are for the most part healthy and my bp is great this time

14+4 I've been really up and down with my weight.  I gain 5lbs then I lose 4lbs then I gain and lose the same 2 lbs.

This is my second pregnancy with my son my body did the same thing and by the end I think I gained under 12lbs.

My first pregnancy I gained 70lbs, I had preeclampsia.  This pregnancy I have gained 25lbs so far.  I was concerned because I have been craving milk and go through a gallon every 2-3 days.  Doctor told me there are worse ways to get calories than milk and say drink it, so I will.  ;)

I had my baby 5/12 and gained 42 pounds. It's been a week and a half and I've lost 32 pounds, so ten to go! If your doc isn't concerned, you shouldn't be either :-)

If u started at a normal weight, my ob recommends a total of 25-35 lbs. Breakdown is 0-6 in the first 3 mo, the one lb/week after. This puts u at just right!

It really depends on your prepregnancy weight

Everyone is different and you should check with your Dr on how much you should be gaining personally. It really does vary a lot. Just eat healthy and exercise often.
