Anyone else? 😅😂 I’m 20 weeks. 

Do they go from your starting weight when measuring total weight gain?? I started at 146, went down to 141 from morning sickness, and now I’m 152 (4 weeks ago I was 144). Woof. I’ve only net gained 7 pounds but I’m afraid of what my dr. Is going to say at my appointment on Friday lol.

I'm 19 weeks and I've gained 10. Whatever. I'm not going to worry about it, because I know I'm not eating a ton of junk and I'm trying to exercise as much as I can, but not overdo it. If you're making healthy choices (but also don't deprive yourself, because that's no fun, haha) and trying to stay reasonably active, your doctor will be fine. 7 pounds is really not that much. You're growing a human.

I'm 17 weeks and gained 10 pounds overall so far. But I feel great, and baby is great so I think we are good!

It's fine, I put on similar between 4 weeks of appointment and then didn't add any the next 4 weeks. As long as you aren't consistently adding 8lbs a month you're ok. Eat when you're hungry, not in-between.

I’m 14 and have gained 10!!! Yikes. My dr said if you were small to begin with it’s not a big deal but to keep an eye on it. I think it was also the holidays, lol
