weight

Ftm and I was just wondering what the average amount of weight to gain during pregnancy is? I was 130 lb pre pregnancy and am now 25 weeks and weighing 150 and don't know if that's normal or not.

Ive heard that is normal to gain from 15-40 lbs but i know people that have gained 80,100 lbs and im just like thats crazy gaining weight, for both my pregnancies ive lost weight. With my daughter i lost 30 in total and for my current i lost 10 in the beginning and only gained 5 throughout my pregnancy im now 33 weeks, i guess all pregnancies are different depending on our bodies, im a lil on the thicker side so thats probably why i dont gain in my pregnancies

It really depends on your body and your baby but the "normal" range is 25 to 35lbs. But as I mentioned it depends more on you and baby some babies are big due to mom and dad being big. Like me my hubby is 6'3 im 5'3 but baby is measuring 2 weeks ahead and she is already big.
