I am going to be 20 weeks on Thursday. According to my scale at home, I have already gained 18 pounds. I have a small frame, and was 120 when I first got pregnant and now am 138 (I am 5'7). People tell me that i'm 'all belly' but where in the world did 18 pounds come from?? I dont feel swollen, and my rings still fit, so I doubt its fluid?
Is there anyone else who has a small frame that is gaining this much weight this fast?
Re: Weight Gain
I am up 17lbs. I feel like it all came at once over the last few weeks. I was 123 starting and now I'm 140.

I am in the same exact boat. I started off at 118-120. I'm 5'6 and am 20 weeks today. So far I've gained 18lbs. It's really depressing, but I used to work out hard and think I'll be able to drop it pretty fast. On a positive note, my weight gain has started slowing alot. I gained alot in the 1st tri.
