weight opinions

What's the average weight everyone gained with their pregnancies? I'm gaining tons of weight but I can't help it! I'm eating right and exercising but I just keep gaining. I feel so horrible about myself.

Don't feel bad.my first son I gained 85!! It was disgusting but I thought I could eat whatever. Boy I was wrong. But I.lost it a and only gained 25 with my second son last yr. This time Im almost 14 wks and I've gained 6 already its pretty excessive in my.opinion but I'm extra careful about my weight now.

Im 27 weeks and have gained 30lbs! I felt horrible about the amount but my Dr assured me today that I am growing a rather large baby and all my weight is in my stomach so I shouldn't be concerned especially since I'm being healthy. I felt so much better after that.

I've gained 45 already and I'm only 26 weeks. I eat healthy and drink lots of water, especially since the weather where I live is in the triple digits this time of year. I exercise everyday too. My mother gained 65 with me but only 15 with my brother so idk what to think. My blood pressure and everything is normal, but I'm a ftm so I worry easily.

I gained 64 lbs with my first. I lost it all, but learned from that experience. I'm now 36 weeks with my second and have gained 27 lbs. I'll prob end up with 30-32 lbs total this time.

Don't feel horrible! It is different for every woman and every pregnancy! With my first I gained 30+ pounds. This time I am 37 weeks and gained only 14. My cousin (who is tiny) gained 65! As long as you are eating healthy and keeping active, you will be fine :)
