I dont have or havent used a weight calculator but im pretty sure i'd be over as well. I know everyone wants to aim for a 'healthy' weight but I think as long as I feel good in my body and my weight isnt causing any health problems I'm doing pretty darn good.

I personally wouldnt worry to much about it.

i havent been eating the best either this is my last baby and my first DD was premature so im trying to keep myself healthy and able to go back to my prepregnancy weight as well as the baby. Im just being paranoid. Ive seen to many of my friends have babies and never bounce back guess they gained so much.

Ha that weight gain calculator SUCKS! I am only 4lbs off what I am meant to weight at full term, and Im only 23 weeks and gaining a consistant 3lbs a week!

I stopped using that thing because it made me mad. Plus the one I had broke down where your weight gain was.. My boobs weigh far more than it suggests they should so I don't trust its logic. lol

Don't trust the calculators. Pregnant women don't all gain the same amount of weight or at the same rate. As long as it's healthy weight, you're fine.
