gaining too much weight.

[angi3baby1991]

This is my 3rd pregnancy and I turned 19 weeks yesterday. I have been tracking my weight with this app and I have gained 10 pounds. Its saying that's excessive and its kind of bothering me. I don't want to gain 40-50 pounds like I did with my other pregnancies. :( im starting to lose hope. I thought a 10lb gain halfway thru was normal. My hubby is always telling me to shut up and stop worrying about my weight.

I've gained 13 for being 21 weeks and my dietian said I was only slightly over the normal weight gain. I wouldn't worry about it if I were you. She also said I'm expected to gain only about 10 more, making it about 20 something which isn't bad. Just try to eat small, healthy meals and it will help your hunger.

I was told I'm not doing too bad. I'm 22 weeks and I've gained about 10 to 12 lbs. I'm not going more than 20 that's for sure. So I'm watching my portions and healthy snacking most importantly. Gained 60 lbs my first it was painful.

I've gained a lot too. I was 120 prepregnant. But I eat well and have always been this way with my prior 2. I've always gotten rid of it, breastfeeding does wonders for losing it so don't worry about it. Just enjoy this special time. I think the weight calculator here is too little and shameful to be in the red. Makes me not want to use it.
But we are going to be fine after all this.

I've gained only 5 pounds and I'm 22+1 and it ways says I'm too low but my doctors aren't concerned so neither am I! :)

I gained 13 and it says above normal smh!!! Doesn't matter as long as baby is ok and doc isn't worried.

Even if you are only 1 lb ahead it says excessive lol. Don't worry. I had gained 14 it said average was 10-13 so the 14 was counted as excessive.

I've been that way the whole time. It bothered me so much I asked my doctor about it and she said that according to my chart I have been good at maintaining my weight and not too worry about it. I've gained 17lbs and I'm 21w5d.
