See,I started out all of my pregnancies overweight and have been told by (annoying) doctors to only gain 15 lbs...With my other two pregnancies I gained 40 lbs each time...The crazy thing is that with pregnancy #1 I ate horribly and didn`t exercise at all..With #2 I walked regularly and ate pretty good..I guess each body is gonna do what it needs to....Plus,I always lost the weight within a few months :)

i didnt want to gain more than about 30 which is in the middle of the 25-35 recommended weight gain but i actuallyu gained about 40. i think i was 42lbs i gained and whatever its all good cuz thats what baby needed.

My doctor told me to gain between 35 and 45 lbs as my BMI classified me as `Underweight` somehow..ha. Anyways I gained 39.5lbs with my pregnancy and had a very healthy 10.4lb baby, and lost 35lbs in the few days after she was born. Don`t worry about your weight gain, as long as you`re eating healthy and still getting some exercise, you will be fine!! I was even on bedrest for a few weeks!

my doctor told me i should gain around 40 lbs and that is exactly what i gained! i didnt have to try or watch what i ate, it just automatically happened. my baby was 9 lb 5 oz!!
