weight gain

Is anyone gaining weight like it's going out of style all of the sudden? I was right on with the 1-2 lbs a month and now I have gained like 6 lbs since the beginning of Aug. I'm at a total of 24 lbs gain for 30w 3d.

I am 32 weeks and I have only gained 6 lbs.  Even though I lost a little more than 13 in the beginning, I'm still worried that I'm not gaining enough weight even though the baby seems to be growing perfectly normal.  My doctors don't ever say anything about it, but I'm not sure if this is because they see so many patients or what.

I'm 31 weeks and as of yesterday I have gained 23lbs. With my first I started at 101 and gained 60 and with my second I gained 35 so I guess I'm doing alright.

I just read last night that from week 30 through week 37 our babies put on a 1/2 pound a week! So, right there is 2 lbs (: I am right around 20 lbs at 29 1/2 weeks. I'll be at about 35 lbs when all is said and done. Again. That is my usual.

I should correct my first post. I was gaining 3-4 lb a month. Now and gaining 6-7 lb. But I've heard people say that now is when the baby starts gaining most his weight so I guess I shouldn't worry. I just feel like I have so much time left and even the swelling isn't letting up!
