Weight

So I'm 37 weeks today, yay only 3 weeks to go!(: but yesterday I had a doc appt and the past 3 appt's I've weighed 144 and it's been over 5 weeks and I haven't gained anything. My doc didn't say anything about it, but it concerns me. Is it normal to not gain as much towards the end? I forgot to ask her bc she checked for dilation for the first time and was talking about contractions. Thanks

I didn't gain weight until the last three months with both of my kids. With my daughter I gained ten pounds in three weeks and had preeclampsia. With my son I only gained ten pounds and it was over the last few months.

Girl you are lucky you havent gained any weight. Idk if its good or not, but I know for sure that its not good to gain too much. I know I  always hear that and I always worry about gaining too much. I figure if the doctors werent concern then its okay. I herd that in the last month (your current month) you should be gaining a pound a week.
