All these girls complaining they weigh 140 or 150... I weigh 231 at 4 weeks... I now weigh 237 and…

I don't understand that. I don't care how much you weigh when you start, by 20 weeks pregnant it's okay to gain weight! They say if you're obese you shouldn't really gain any. Screw that. You're pregnant. Don't worry about it!

Lol because they are not use to their weight being that way lol I'm not 230 I never seen 200's a day in y life so it is something to scream about lol but I'm over it because I only have 9 more weeks lol

It does matter what you weigh because can cause major complications and diabetes @marbeffff. You're putting the child and the mom at risk, and it sounds like the doctor cares and just wants what is best for both to be healthy. See below from the mayo clinic.

pre pregnancy I was 110 pounds unhealthy now I'm 23 weeks pregnant and I can't get above 130 pounds. its not healthy for me or my baby so everyone that's gainging weight be happy!!!

I'm 233 at 29 weeks.. my doctor yelled cause I've gained 20 pounds since I've been pregnant and that's all I'm suppose to gain thru out my pregnancy

I am plus size and started at 266 I have diabetes and was on a very strict diet but I still gained a lot like 40 pounds...I was very concerned and brought it up to my Dr and he told me sometimes some women just gain wieght no matter how hard they try not too. I had a healthy pregnancy and now have a very healthy baby...just because you are bigger doesn't always mean complications. just eat healthy and let your dr know what you are eating and what kind of exercise you are doing

but everything is fine. I'm just scared and don't wanna get a c section. so I'm trying to eat more baked instead of fried and less cookies and candy but I just can't help it lol so salad and cucumbers is the menu for me most days if I'm home. if I'm not then I'll slam on fast food lol I feel bad but I'm Def not gonna starve myself and my doctor doesn't say anything about diabetes or anything. all my tests cane back fine but my back always hurts. now

It matters how much you gain. I started at 215 which put me at what they would call obese for my height. I am extremely careful how much I gain not only because it'll be hard to lose what I gain after baby comes but because I'm scared of getting diabetes during pregnancy or something causing harm to my little girl. It's hard to hear your dr or anyone get mad at you for the weight you gain but it's only for you and your baby's wellbeing.

I am bigger and I am 24 weeks and I gain 8 lbs total and my baby is underweight

I started at 249, went down to 246. I am now 22 weeks with twins and I still am 249. they want me to gain at least 10 pounds. I'm struggling to gain it, I am craving home cooked meals like meat, potatoes and veggies. I don't want sweets. I drink protein shakes n take vitamins and my boys are growing a lil bigger than where they really are. it's all depends on what you eat, what your genes are and what the baby needs.
