I totally agree !!! Hun I am 40 weeks no baby yet and have only gained 11 pounds I'm constantly losing weight or gaining it. But my Greyson is healthy. My sister gained 60 all in her tummy she was huge!!! Point is every woman is different don't base your pregnancy off anyone else's.if your doc says you and baby are good then listen. I am a ftm and was constantly asking my midwifeabout the weight, but its their job they know. Don't stress enjoy not having the weight for a while but cherish that adorable bump when it comes in because pregnancy flies by!! :)))) good luck sweetie

Has your doctor said you need to gain weight? I lost 15 in my first trimester due to morning sickness and I've only gained 3 back, if you think its stress related take a breather! Stress isnt good for the baby.
