What's you weight gain ladies.. im worried..

I'm almost 7 months and I only gained 11 pounds so far... My last pregnancy I gained almost 60 pounds.. now of course I don't wanna gain anywhere near that amount that I gained 10 yrs ago..  Is anyone else in the same boat as me.. I'm actually worried that I'm happy about it is that wrong..?

Lol @ Mrs_stoops.. All our weights differ but most are the same I'm happy I'm not alone on this because I sure would not be happy if I gained 60 again but I was only 22 and verrrrry slim aka skin an bones so I guess that weight was good... But now I don't need it.. 10 yrs later I don't wanna gain to much where it would be harder to lose..

My BMI was 31 labeling me "obese" pre pregnancy. Doc didn't want me to gain more that 20-25lbs. I lost 10lbs in first trimester from being so sick and am now at 31 weeks and only 6lbs over my orginial weight. Baby is measuring on track so doc doesn't seem concerned!I hate that BMI chart. I'm 5'10 and 220lbs ppw... So that makes me "obese"? Suck an egg! Lol

With my first child i gained 25 pounds with the whole pregnancy.
But with this one I'm only 26wks and i have already gained 28 pounds. So i think I'll be gaining a bit more.

37w3d. Gained 27 lbs so far. Ftm. I don't really have swelling anywhere.. eat pretty much what I want. But am really active. Wouldn't be surprised if I top off at about 30+ lbs haha my appetite is going crazy!! You sound healthy to me!! I wish I didn't gain so much... I am of average size. Was 5 lbs heavier than what I normally am when I got pregnant honestly but as long as your baby is healthy!

26 weeks today. I have gained about 15 lbs. This is my 5th. My first I started off about 110 lbs and ended up 175 lbs. Sheewww I really took eating for 2 serious:/ Anyways I wouldn't worry. I have only gained a few more than you have. You'll gain a few more as the baby starts putting on weight.

I lost 10 pounds in my 1st trimester. Altogether I've only gained 12.6 pounds. Dr says it's normal so I guess I'll go with it. I eat a lot so I thought I would have gained a lot more. My first child I gained 30 pounds but that was 11 yrs ago. I'm 9 months this month.

With my first I gained 55lbs and watched what I ate carefully but I'm currently 25 weeks with second and decided to not worry about weight but so far I've only gained 10lbs. The way I see it as long as my doctor isn't worried about it then neither am I.
