How many weeks are you? How much weight have you gained? Are you comfortable with this? Is your doctor comfortable with this? Share the weighty facts!

I've gained 6 lbs, I think. I think that's about the same as with Duncan - I ended up gaining about 35 with him, so I'm hoping to stay on about the same track.
6 lbs is not surprising - I think each boob has GOT to be like 3 lbs heavier! :hehe:

I'm 10 weeks and have gained 5 lbs already. I am not happy, especially because that's with puking all the time! I gained 53 lbs with Cash, a lot of that was due to near total bedrest for 5 months, I'm really hoping things aren't that bad this time.

I'm 23 weeks and have gained 10 lbs. I think that may be less than I had gained at this point in the pregnancy with Cohen, but I also started out weighing a few lbs more. I gained 33 lbs with him. I'd like to keep it under 30 if I can, but I know the most weight came on the last few months the first time.

I'm almost 19 weeks and I think I've gained about 10 lbs. If I can keep this up through the whole pregnancy I'll be happy. I gained almost 40 lbs with Ben and I don't want to put that much on again. 10 lbs halfway through is good. Another 10-15 lbs and it'll be great. :twothumbs:

Holy Crap ladies! You're not gaining much!!!! :hehe:

I've gained either 14 or 16 lbs at this point (not sure where I started at) and I'm 21 weeks. I gained 33 with Charlie, but I don't think I gained this much at this point with him. I'm going to blow up!

How do you all stay so slim is what I want to know?! Even with puking all the time I still managed to gain so much weight!

Farah your so tiny you can put those lbs and not even look it! :p

Jo I don't know I think my job has to do with mine. I know if I don't start picking up some my Dr. will start yelling at me again. When I went on bedrest with Eli what push my Dr. into putting me on br was the fact I had lost 5lbs in a week and my BP was super high plus I was swelling big time,and I was almost 30weeks prego. So he said no more work. :eyeroll: I don't want to do that again.

I haven't got a clue why I haven't gained much yet. I really haven't exercised in the last month or so with all of us being sick (which, btw, hasn't stopped me from eating). I guess I'm being careful with what I eat and not keeping a lot of junk in the house. If I did I'd eat it all. :hehe:

I think it's because they are all chasing toddlers around this time. :hehe:

Don't worry about it. You could gain a 100 lbs and still look awesome! ;)

Great job ladies!! :hula:

I hope to avoid eating like a Hoover and swelling like a blimp with the next kid. 70 extra pounds is not pretty. :lol:

I'm 12 weeks and have gained I think somewhere around 4 lbs. I'm starting out heavier cause I haven't lost all of my last baby weight so was hoping to only gain around 20lbs
