Today was my 24 week U/S and Baby A was at 1 pound 5 ounces and Baby B was at 1 pound 10 ounces. My MFM wasn't overly concern, but he says I need to gain more weight. At 9 weeks I was 130 and at my last OB appt at 22 weeks I was 144. I did have the nurse at the MFM weigh me before I left and I was at 147. MFM said he wants be to gain at least 30-35 pounds. I could probably add more protein to my diet and eat more small meals. Any tips or food suggestions. I thought I was doing ok since I have been gaining weight, but now I am a little worried.
**Update**
Yesterday went to the MFM at 27 weeks 2 days. Baby A is still a little behind, but still within normal ranges. Baby A measuring 5 days behind B at 2 pounds. Baby B is 2 pounds 9 ounces. I saw a different MFM in the group this time and she told me the important thing is that they are still growing and within normal ranges. She does want to see me in 3 weeks again instead of 4, but she didn't seem to concerned. also both babies are still head down!
