Weight gain

So, I'm 23+2 I've gained 12.5 lbs.  The app is basically telling me I'm a fatty mcfatty.  It says "Excessive" under weight gain.

:(

So sad.  I weighed my boobs though in a food scale because well they're HUGE. And each boob weighs 2.5 lbs. Lol So, I wonder how much weight gain actually went to my boobs.

How much have you ladies gained around the same week?

I'm 17 weeks and haven't gained anything yet.  I gained 60-70 lbs with my first two pregnancies and am not planning on doing that again!  This time I was a little overweight to begin with so my goal is about 20 lbs at the most.  I'm trying to make healthy food choices and stay active.  My pre-preggo jeans actually fit better through the thighs/butt now than before... Although the tummy is starting to get a bit too big for them.

I'm 35 weeks and lost 22 lbs to begin with, but I'm overweight, and so far I have gained 10.5 back so this whole time this app has said I'm not gaining enough but my doctor said my weight gain is fine because my baby is growing perfectly. If your doctor isn't concerned don't stress yourself out over it. This app only tells us what the "average" woman should do, and some women gain at the beginning and not a lot at the end or loose at the beginning and gain a lot at the end. It just depends on your body.

I'm 23+4 n gained about 10lbs. I'm sure if I weighed my boobs that's where most of it went!  My boobs are gigantic:( Im overweight to begin with but my dr said I should gain about 30lbs. Which isn't bad compared to my sis who gained 70, and my sil who gained 60.
