m almost 25 weeks, and have gained 7 lbs now. 25 lbs is the
ideal for smaller women. Overweight women are only supposed to
gain about 25. I gained 40 with my son and it was bad lol. I'm hoping to keep it less then 25 lbs with my daughter. Every one is different. My sister is almost 27 weeks and has g gained 30 lbs already but and needed it. It's her 3rd baby and she's so skinny. She started at 107 lbs and shes 26. With my son 4 years ago I started at 109 and ended at 150.
