[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gaining more than 20 pounds is unusual. I feel most people that gain more than 20 are overweigh to begin with. My brother is an OB and he has said this as well.[/quote] This is so so so untrue and unhelpful. And I hope this is never shared with patients or any pregnant woman. I am objectively extremely petite/thin/fit and have had three kids. I gained 35 with my first and 65+ with two and three. My best advice to people reading this or asking the question is to let this go. Your body will do what it needs to do. Look away from the scale. You’re growing a human. Your doctor will raise concerns if there’s an issue with your weight or weight gain. [/quote]
