How much has everyone gained so far?

I know this is the answer that NO woman like to answer ;)  but we are gaining weight for a good reason. I was wondering how much everyone has gained so far. How much did your doctors tell you that they want you to gain? I'm 24 weeks and up about 25 pounds! I cannot believe it as I really dont know where all the weight has gone (besides my belly, butt, boobs, and thighs). I guess I know where its gone.... haha

35 pounds at 37 weeks... I think I'm on track to stay under 44 pounds for the pregnancy with only 3 weeks to go.

ah well... I was always going to try and enjoy and not get too worked up about weight gain. No Gestational Diabetes or blood pressure issues, iron & other bloods are fine... so I'm not too concerned!

Trh i am SO jealous of you!!  I'm up 22lbs total i think and i know bc i was at ideal weight prepregnancy that I should gain 25lbs total but still gaining weight is no fun as it makes us all feel like big fat cows! I'm ready to lose this weight and start feeling like a human instead of a beached whale!

I gained a pound since my last appointment, so I'm at 13 total now and 34 weeks. My boobs grew in the beginning and I went up to a D cup but nothing has changed since. Makes me wonder if something is wrong but OB says not to worry. Granted I don't particularly want them any bigger, but I'd like to think all is well and my body is preparing for breastfeeding.
