Same heree, I don't how much I weighed b4 I was pregnant but when I was 3 months I weighed 119 because I had really bad morning sickness. But now I'm 26 Weeks & I weigh 138. So I've gained like 19 pounds. I've asked my doc about my weight he said everything was good.

I gained 23 pounds overall in my pregnancy. I'm 25 weeks, my doctor seemed concerned that I have gained "way too much" and I have my glucose test tomorrow. This app always said my weight gain is excessive too.
I don't think it's bad, everyone is different right? Maybe my doctor is just crazy...
I agree that it can be the baby, amniotic fluid and water we retain like blanco2089 said.
I feel fine, so it's fine.

This app has been telling me Ive been excessive since like week 12. I started at 11, now at 23 weeks I am 142. Ive gained a lot. Like you though, I don't look fat or over weight I just have a big belly and my breasts have doubled lol. My doctor is not concerned.

My doctor didnt tell me anything about how much i should gain. And i actually eat less than i used to before getting pregnant. I still look like i used to, i dont look any fatter. I just look like a skinny girl who swallowed a basketball. So i'm suprised where all this weight i gain is? And is it really that excessive as this app says?

has told me I have a normal pregnancy since all my labs have been great, my glucose is normal, my bp has been normal all throughout my pregnancy and I haven't had any complications due to my pregnancy or weight gain. Don't sweat it if you don't have any complications. Remember not all the weight is you but also your baby, placenta, amniotic fluid and water we retain. You can loose after baby is born.

Usually your dr tells you how much you should ideally gain throughout your pregnancy according to your weight before pregnancy but sometimes it just doesn't happen like that. My 1st pregnancy I gained so much weight right away because I took it to heart that I was eating for 2. This pregnancy I have been more cautious with my food intake and my 1st dr told me to aim at gaining 11-17 lbs since i was already overweight and she put on all my papers that I was a high risk pregnancy. Well i was not gaining much but at the beginning but this last 2 mths I started piling on the lbs and I'm not overeating. My new dr has not mentioned anything negative about my weight gain
