I went to my 28 week appointment today, everything is good but i've gained 25 lbs and I'm freaking out a little bit. I'm only 5'1" and started at 148lbs, which is overweight for my height anyways. So I was hoping to only gain 20lbs or so. At first I lost a few, then it slowly came on, then in the past 2 months it's come on fast! I just hope it slows down cuz i still have 2 1/2 months to go! But as long as my baby is healthy i shouldn't worry too much about it :-)

Im the opposite, I just started gaining more now... I gained 4lbs in the last 2.5 weeks.... but was only up about 9lbs before that...Dr said in the last month you gain a lb a week. Its so unpredictable! I think *think* its stablizes in the last 2 months doesnt it??

for me it did. I gained the most in my first and second trimester. I'm 38 weeks now and have been at the same weight since 32 or 34 weeks. I even lost a pound! I was worried I'd gained over 60lbs the way I was gaining weight in the first and second trimester!! but I guess my weight gain has reached a peak and is now tapering off. Doctor said it's totally normal!! Good luck!!

I'm a little over 34 weeks and haven't gained anything since probably 27-29 weeks. I gained 30lbs & was freaking out, I was easting really healthy. I guess people just gain differently. You'll be fine, I bet it slows down for you as long as your being healthy
