When i first got pregnant i lost 3 pounds and i wasn't suffering from morning sickness or anything. As long as baby is growing well n on track you shouldn't worry. Im 28w 3days and have only gained 6 pounds(including three i gained back) n my baby is strong and she reassures me daily. Eat well and stay hydrated. Im a plus size girl as well. Every person is different and so is each pregnancy. Stay optimistic dear!

In an average weight before pregnancy, it's ok to gain 30-50 pounds. Ask your doctor your next visit and see how much is good for your height/weight.

I am 5'2, 33 weeks, have gained 40lbs. (A lot for me to carry around lol)  doctor is not concerned.
