Your baby gains the majority of his or her weight the last month or so of pregnancy. At my 19 week ultrasound my son weighed half and oz. my first was 8lbs 7oz and my second was 7lbs 10oz , it really just depends on how baby will gain and all that. Don't stress of weight you gain unless doctors are concerned. You also have to factor in the weight of the fluid , placenta and anything else that goes along with it !

Most of that weight gain is you not baby. I've known women who gained 95lbs while pregnant and they still had normal babies. It's all about your eating and exercise habits

Lol no...some of that weight can be babys but it's like a small fraction.
But some babies are big and some are small, something I feel you cant do much about.
