happyforest - 1016 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) i guess it would depend on where you started! ifyou are 23 weeks then normal would be gaining around 23 pounds or less. that way by week 40, you will have gained 40 lb which is the max usually to gain.they recommend gaining 20-40 lb depending on your starting weight.

My doctor will tell me if I'm gaining too much or too little, otherwise I just try my best to eat healthy and get some exercise (although, I've been banned from that due to placenta previa). Anyway, don't spend time making yourself feel bad. You don't need it and either does the baby. Just do your best to eat healthy and know that you can diet and exercise after the little one gets here.

No matter what the weight piles on when your pregnant. You can watch what you eat but at the end of the day you still put on weight. I really struggled with this when i noticed the scales going up and up at the start. But I know my body is doing what it needs to and that it'll sort itself out after baby is born. Just enjoy your pregnancy and forget those scales!! :-)

lillyandlexisnana - 1017 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Gosh no I dont think you are overweight hon. What did u weigh before you got PG? My daughter weighed 113 lbs before she got PG with her first baby and when it was born at 28 wks she weighed in at 145 lbs and she is currently 28wks PG again with another girl and weighs 145lbs.
