Weight gain

I am 5"6 and my pre pregnancy weight was 112lbs. I am now 142lbs and 29 weeks pregnant. The chart on this website says I am above the normal weight is that a bad thing? I was underweight before getting pregnant.

For being taller your prob gaining ok but Ya u were prob a lil to small before pregnancy that's why they say that I wouldn't worry bout it one of my friends is at 190 and I'm pretty sure she didn't weigh much when she started

This app says i haven't gain enough weight even though I was over weight when I got pregnant. I am 31 weeks and have only gained 1.5 lbs from pre-pregnancy weight. During this pregnancy I've been sick a lot. Since I am overweight my docs don't want me to gain a lot of weight anyway. This app doesn't account for everyone's personal medical circumstances (overweight/underweight).

I will be 32 weeks tomorrow and have gained 27 lbs. It says I have gained too much also. As long as the baby is healthy and your doctor.isn't concerned you're fine. Everyone and every pregnancy is different.

I wouldn't go by this chart. If youre doctor doesn't say anything you should be fine. My weight doesn't correlate with my body. I dont even look pregnant and im 29 weeks tomorrow
