Weight Gain

[sfaulk1]

I'll be 19 weeks on Monday, and I've only gained 2 pounds so far. Before getting pregnant I was already about 20 pounds overweight so I'm not sad about not gaining weight lol. Just wondered if this is normal. Should I be gaining more than I have?

As long as baby is growing normally, it's fine. At 23 weeks, I've only gained 2lbs and I was considered a healthy weight prior to being pregnant. My baby and I are both fine, so the doctor isn't worried.

I was a normal weight my first pregnancy and I think I had only gained 2 lbs from pre pregnancy weight at 20 weeks. So yes. Normal.

(My aunt who was overweight by about 50 lbs with second child ended up delivering at 9 months 10 lbs lighter! She was determined not to go over 200 lol)
