Gaining Weight Too Fast

38 and preg w/1st - December 21

What is the recommended weight gain per week (or average for each trimester)? I am 15 weeks and have gained 13 lbs. I was "normal" weight to begin with, but feel like I'm gaining too fast. Any ideas?

Go to google and type in "pregnant weight gain weekly" (without the quotes of course and it should list the site that I mentioned above). For some reason it didn't paste the like correctly.

It's fine. There are no set rules. I wouldn't go by the "charts". Remember how we used them as teens for weight? and they were to standardized? Some months you gain more and some months less....

Last time I was at the doctor they told me you're good if you gain 2 lbs per each monthly visit.
