Weight gain...

I'm 24 weeks today and have gained nearly 20lbs!! I am worried I have gained to much! I had already put on about 15lbs since my wedding last August prior to getting pregnant. So up almost 35lbs since last year!! I'm afraid of how much more I will put on! Anyone else in my situation??

    I had gained 13 lbs due to anxiety mess prior to becoming pregnant. Found out Friday I am up 13 lbs due to pregnancy. 26 lbs so far to take off once baby boy gets here! I am also 24 weeks 3 days.

    Everybody gains weight differently, if your dr isn't concerned the neither should you. Happiness will do that to a girl.
    If I didn't have a 5 year old dd and a full time job I'm sure I'd be right there with you.
    When I was pregnant with dd I gained close to 50lbs. I was huge. It was hard to lose it after but 3 years later I only had 10 pounds that hung around.
    Just choose some healthy snacks and eat smaller portions throughout the day.
    Enjoy your pregnancy and don't be overly worried unless the dr is. Mobile smiley!

    Found out at appointment today that I am up 14lbs total. 8 of those gained in last 4 weeks. I'm 24 weeks and doctor made me feel like I have gained too much and need to keep an eye on it. It was hard to hear.

    Just posted a similar post.  I'm up 22 lbs -- 10 since my last appointment.  I'm a little concerned that I've gained too much already and will really be way over the recommended limits by the time baby arrives.  Furthermore, I'm scared to death that I wont be able to lose all of what I've gained.  I've always had a hard time losing weight and with a newborn will probably have very little energy or ambition to work out and eat right. Sad

    It is very confusing seeing I keep reading ob things that say normal weight gain is 2025 lbs and at my 25 week check I gained 20 already. Doc doesn't seem concerned but I have stopped weighing myself bc it just makes me sad.

    This. Really though, my a s s has gained 20 lbs already this pregnancy. The weight thing is overdone. Some of us gain a ton, some don't. Eat right, exercise, do what's best for your baby, and don't worry about the scale.

    24 weeks and gained 20 lbs. dr hasn't said anything at all so I'm too worried. My mom said 35 to 40 is more normal. But everyone is different. I'm just trying not to gain more than one pound a week if I can.

    Not to scare you, but I gained 20 by 20 weeks with my first.  I then went on to gain a whopping total of 85 by the time I gave birth.  Just watch what you eat and exercise
