scared but

So im 22 weeks prego and i didnt gain any weight during 1st trimester and now this is my 2nd trimester and ive lost 3 lb. Every 4 weeks i lose a lb or 2. My doc tells me i will prob gain like 10 or 15 at end but that scares me too. This is baby 3 and preg. Number 7. With my other 2 i gained over 35 lbs. And based on my BMI i am overweight but not obese or anything. Everything says i should gain 15-25 lbs. I am eating and getting bigger. Ive gotten stretch marks and everything. Im just worried something is wrong. I havent been able to lose weight in years and now that im prego i start and for no reason? Does that make sense

Don't worry too much because I had the same rollercoaster ride with my weight and this is my first pregnancy.....I would gain and lose but my doctor told me.not to.worry as long as I'm not dropping ten to fifteen pounds at a time....but now I've gained eleven pounds and I'm almost six months....don't worry you little one is getting all the nutrition it needs and the weight will come soon :)

I wouldnt be worried... Im 22 weeks about to be 23 weeks & have yet to gain a single pound... In fact ive lost about 20 pounds since the beginning. Im still over 200 pounds so im deff overweight but I dont really look it and my doc said shes not worried so I shouldnt be. She actually said she wouldnt be be surprised if I lost more but said id prolly gain 15-20 at the end. ^_^ but its funny cuz nothing I did before my pregnancy worked for loosing weight for me
