If your doctor isn't concerned I wouldn't be either but if definitely ask him/her. I gained 17w first and 20 with this one.

A lot of women gain 40+ in weight during their first pregnancy. With my first (girl) I gained 43 pounds, but I was healthy. All my tests come back fine. Pregnant with my second now (26 weeks) and I've gained maybe 10... Just try and do as much exercise as possible and watch what you eat. As long as your healthy worry about the weight later! Enjoy the pregnancy, not the weight:)

I think ive gained 55 pounds and I only have 5 days left. My weight gain slowed down alot once I hit thirty weeks. I think I was gaining atleast 10 pounds a month in the beginning. Dont get upset girl! Were pregnant its what we do :)
