So....no.  Just nope.

I'm 5'7".  Not pregnant, I weigh 110lbs.  You, my friend, at 140lbs, are in no way underweight to begin with.  Thanks for that hit to my self esteem, I hate how I look on a daily basis, too damn bony, and to hear that someone with 30 lbs on me thinks she's underweight?  Yeah. 

With my first pregnancy, I gained a total of 65 lbs.  My doctor's didn't seem too concerned because C always measured right on track and I didn't have GD.  Trust your doctors.  Don't get bent out of shape because people gave you reasonable answers.  Although, I have a feeling, had anything other than "wow, you look amazeballs" been said, you'd have taken offense.  Go away. 

I hear where you're coming from, but at the same time your point could have been accomplished by not sharing your weight. Because all it does is open up to comparisons and leave people whose body types are very different feeling quite heavy/large.

I certainly didn't mean to make anyone feel that way, and I apologize if that's what happened. 

People often forget there are two sides to all fences, and it sucks as much on mine as it does on the other side.
