The weight gain is on top of your PRE-pregnancy weight.
Like the other ladies said, dont worry UNLESS your doctor is concerned - it is common for many women to lose weight during the 1st trimester and then start gaining in the 2nd/3rd trimester. A weight gain of 25 Ibs during pregnancy is just a very rough guide - some women lose weight, others dotn gain anything, and others gain 80 Ibs. Provided your baby measures on target you dont need to worry.
I am 16 wks 2 days and when I found out that I was prego i weighed 176 lbs then when i had my app i went to 170 and now i weigh 183. So from what i have heard from several people that some women loose weight before they actually gain. If your doc isnt worried about you loosing weight then you should not have anything to worry about.
Hi,
I was having the same problem. I lost a total of 16 lbs so far i'm 26 weeks and i've only gained 2lbs. I was a little heavier than you when i started. Dont worry, you will start gaining. and it would be from the weight you are now.
Good luck

I think it would be on top of where you are now...not sure though!
