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

trh0819 - if you only knew how envious many of us are!  I'm up about 30 pounds at 32.5 weeks.  And I can't WAIT to start losing it!  I'm so looking forward to running again, and to wearing regular clothes.  I've even decided I'm going to work on being more stylish post-baby.  I'm typically a pretty conservative dresser and don't want to be so boring anymore.

I'm only weighed when I go to doctor appointments and surprisingly I am happy to find out that i've gained weight. As worried as I am about losing this baby weight afterwards im happier to know that im giving my little ones more room to grow in there. Yea I guess I am celebrating your weight gain hehe Keep it up mama!!

Can't say I've ever had anyone celebrate my weight gain. HA! I know it's good for me and for baby, but for someone who has been conscious of weight for most of a lifetime, it's hard to get excited watching the numbers go up. I stopped weighing myself at home. Once every few weeks is sufficient at this point  :-)

Yayyy trh0819!! I'm happy to hear that your now packing on the pounds. That means that baby is getting big. Dont worry, you will be able to lose the weight quickly once they are here.

And the scale spoke... I've gained 12 pounds at 30.4 weeks. Feeling really fat and very uncomfortable. My OB is happy with my gain. Wish I were.
