Lucky! You were either normal weight to start with... or you don't have a jerk dr. Like I do.

I'm 30 weeks and have gained 26 pounds.  I had a hard time gaining at first then from week 20 to 25 I had gained 11 pounds on top of the 10 pounds I'd already gained. For a total of 21 pounds After week 25 it started to slow down a bit.

I've gained about 25kgs and some days it bothers me but really I don't care because in healthy and I have enough things to worry about dealing with this pregnancy without having to worry about inevitable weight gain and I know once my baby is here and I'm breast feeding him that it will come off. Try not to worry too much, as long as you're healthy :) all the best.

It all depends on you and the baby. With my first I lost about 50 lbs and gained about that much with my second. But so far I have lost 30 lbs with this one. As long as you and baby are doing good and growing healthy it's ok.

I'm 23w5d with my first and have already gained 20 lbs! To me it doesn't make sense since I'm eating healthy. Doctor hasn't raised any concerns about my weight and baby is doing well. I'm 5'11 and seems like I've just held on the weight.  I'm not overweight or underweight. I don't have a noticeable bump yet either,  I just feel chunky! Just hope I don't gain too much.

Hi I'm 26 weeks today with my 3rd and I gain 15lbs. with my other 2 pregnancies a gained exactly 50lbs each :(. I'm really surprise that I haven't gain alot this time. I'm only 5'1 I don't know if the weight has to do with how tall are you.
