My BMI was 22.3 when I got pregnant, I was 138 lbs and I'm 5'6" tall. I'm not 26 wks 2 days & I've now gained 30 lbs! I'm not pigging out or anything. My dr doesnt seem concerned though. I only gained 40 lbs my whole pregnancy with my 1st.

I am 23w4d and have gained 11 pounds. I started this pregnancy at a BMI 19.5. The holidays sure helped to put a few pounds on!

When I was pregnant with my first, I didn't have my first prenatal appointment until I was 15 weeks pregnant and I was only 95 pounds. By the end of my pregnancy, at 37 weeks and 4 days, I had gained 50 pounds. But I also didn't know I was pregnant until 9 or 10 weeks so I wasn't taking much care of myself. This time I started out 104 and gained two pounds then lost one in one week and I'm now 13 weeks. And this time I knew from 4 weeks that I was pregnant so I've been taking good care of myself for the most part. Everyone just gains weight differently.

I'm 21 weeks 4 days and I've gained 29 pounds! This is my first pregnancy and I was about 10 pounds underweight for a healthy BMI for my height range. I put on 6 pounds in the last 10 days and I didn't pig out or indulge on Christmas baking or anything. I have been gaining about 1 - 2 pounds a week except for 2 weeks where I gained 6 pounds (at 8 weeks and then just this past week) You couldn't tell that I was pregnant until about a week ago and now my belly has popped a bit. But I feel rather huge having gained 29 pounds. I think I'm going to be a 50-60 pound weight gainer during this pregnancy if I keep staying like this. Oh, and I'm exercising and eating well too....the weight just keeps creeping up!

I'm nearly 27 weeks and I have gained 14lbs. My weight gain is weird... nothing for weeks then a leap of 2 or 3 lbs. Christmas chocolates, probably not helping... ;-)

I'm 20w5d and I've gained about 2 lbs. I know it will eventually catch up with me. I was warned to expect a big jump in weight in the next few weeks. I was a tad overweight (based on BMI of 26) pre-pregnancy, so I'm hoping to keep it around 25 lbs total.
