20lbs was when I first turned the corner and started to gain. Prior to that I had such bad morning sickness that I was down 4 pounds from pre pregnancy weight.

I think about 15 pounds by week 20? I know every appointment starting around 20 I go in thinking i gained WAY too much weight since the last one, like I just grew so quickly, but every time, it's been right on target. I feel like my belly is expanding faster than the scale is going up, so I'm convinced my body is finally using all those fat resources I've been saving for it

But seriously, I was nervous for every appointment until I just let it go. And my weight gain is pretty much by the book.

I was up about 20 at 20 weeks

I'm at 19 weeks and I'm still down 4 lbs from my first appointment. I'm hoping I start to gain some. I know I had some extra padding in there so I don't need to gain a lot, but I want to make sure I'm doing what is healthy for the baby.

At 20 weeks I had gained 7 pounds.

This was me exactly! At 20 weeks, I was still down a few pounds I think. Now, at 30 weeks, I'm up about 6 pounds. I was super nervous about not gaining, but because I was bigger to start, my midwife assured me this was fine!

I had gained 10 lbs at 20 weeks, according to my chart.

I think I had gained 7-8lbs by wk20. At wk24 I'm up about 10lbs.

At 22 weeks I was up 13 pounds - they recommended a max of 12 so I was a bit over. At 24 weeks now I'm scared to step on the scale. Everyone has noticed my belly pop out the past couple of weeks so I'm sure it's a scary number!

Hmm....I don't remember!

I am 14 weeks and have gained 0. Last time at this point I was up at least 7 lbs.

At 20 weeks, I was still down 3 lbs, but it started to go up
.0.75- 1 lb per week after 22 weeks.

I was up 3 lbs at 20 weeks but I had lost 10 in the first few months so at that point I was just trying to put it back on. After that point I really started to put on weight. I'm now at 29 weeks and almost 20 pounds above starting weight so I need to slow down. I've been putting on 2 lbs a week the last 8 weeks or so. I was hoping to only out on 25 lbs but that's not going to happen.
