BY 25 weeks, I had gained less than 10 pounds. I am a naturally thin, petite person and gained 24 pounds total. I exercised in moderation and ate a pretty healthy diet but didn't bother depriving myself of junk food if that's what I wanted. I'm starting out this time 3-4 pounds lighter and imagine I will gain around the same.

My SIL is a very health eater and exercised throughout both of her pregnancies. She gained 40 and 35 pounds.

I have a good friend that gains between 40-50 pounds everytime regardless of diet. As in, she's eaten healthy in some and pretty unhealthily in others, and still gains the same.

I think we gain what we gain, and each person's body reacts different to pregnancy. As long as you're gaining steadily and not putting weight on rapidly, I wouldn't worry.

6 lbs. But I'm fairly chunky and my body is redistributing my bulk around. I'm efficient! Or something like that. I'm also still nursing a toddler. At my weight, while pregnant and nursing, I need about 3,000 calories per day. It's hard to eat that many if you aren't eating tons of crappy food and I would have to eat *more* than that to gain. I just don't have stomach capacity.

I am also 25 weeks along, and at my appt. last week I have gained 10 lbs since my first visit at 8 weeks, and 15 pounds total from my pre-pregnant weight (right around 200lbs - uggh!). She was pleased with my rate of weight gain. This is my 6th pregnancy. I usually gain 20 pounds with singletons and I gained 30 pounds with my twin pregnacy. I don't "do" anything special - I eat whatever I want. My babies have ranged from 7#13 to 9#5.
