I know I started around 150 & ended up being a smidge over 190 & left the hospital around 168....no idea if that's normal or not but the other 18 lbs weren't really a big deal. They came off mostly on their own eventually.

I have gained just under 25 lbs so far (i think we're 1 day apart with our EDDs). I'll probably gain another 10. I gained 35 lbs with my last pregnancy as well.

What is "recommended" varies based in what your pre-pregnancy weight and BMI was. Generally considered best to maintain or gain little if obese, gain a bit if iverweight, gain 25-35 if normal weight, and more if underweight. However many fall outside of these ranges and have a healthy pregnancy and baby!
I do overall think there is too much emphasis on gaining weight - if you are eating healthy and sufficiently and getting some modest exercise / it's probably fine!

As long as your doctor isn't concerned, I wouldn't be concerned! Normal is relative...in all aspects of life!

I am 31 weeks, 4 days and am up roughly 20 lbs, started out underweight but still don't want that number to creep too high, especially considering how much junk food I've been eating.

I looked at my tracker, I had gained 23lbs at 30 weeks. I ended up at about 40-43lbs by 41weeks. I didn't lose weight in the 1st trimester, I think I gained around 4 lbs.

As long as your Dr. things it's fine I wouldn't worry. It can really vary depending on MS, your BMI (if you are overweight you're supposed to gain less, underweight-gain more), and just how your body handles pregnancy.
