Its important to remember that you should gain at least 25 pounds. But that 25 pounds will be all baby. I know your thinking that a baby is usually only 8 pounds... but you will also hold water and this will all gk away on its own within a couple months of having the baby. So dont think when you see the number on the scale going up its just fat... because its not. Make sure you eat healthy and take prenatal vitamins. You and baby will both have a great outcome. Congrats.
