I watch what i eat but sometimes i eat a lil crappy food. And i drink lots of water. No one sees where ive put on alot of weight. Maybe in my boobs and butt. But thats it. My tummy is almost all baby

I started at 134 and I'm 24 weeks and almost to 160 lol I'm trying my best to eat as healthy as possible and when I'm at work I'm constantly running around and I drink a gallon of water a day so hopefully I'm not too huge at the end but I'm trying not to stress about it!

I'm 28 weeks and have gained 25 lbs. I have an amazing diet and am extremely active, not much you can do but be healthy. I'm above the weight gain range they recommend but I've been gaining steadily so my ob isn't concerned. I was 185 at the end of my last pregnancy and am regurally 130.

Not necessarily,  my doctor told be basically to go on a diet around 23 weeks for gaining 11 or 12 pounds at that point. Everyone and every pregnancy is different,  our bodies retain a lot of water and metabolize things differently,  don't stress too much about it, enjoy your pregnancy to the fullest.
My first I gained about 45 pounds, this pregnancy (at 34 weeks) I've gained about 26 so far.
--also every dr is different, my dr for my first never had a big issue with my weight, but this dr is only concerned about my weight
