Baby weight

I'm 27 wks 2days the last few OB appointments I've seen my Drs. partner rather than my regular Dr and he keeps telling me that I'm gaining too much weight. Up until my last aappointment I had only gained 6 lbs. at my last appointment is gained a total of 18 lbs. is that too much or am I right on track?

I'm 27 weeks 4 days and I've gained about 25lbs already. My doctors are not concerned at all. Everything is going great and this is my first. I think everyone is different and we all don't fit the norm.

The ideal amount is 25-35. By the last 2 months or so you'll be gaining a pound per week. Just be careful I don't think its too much personally. If your pre pregnancy weight is normal you'll gain more weight than an over weight person who will gain very little to nothing.
