Weight gain anxiety

Amy • My first pregnancy!

So I'm 25 weeks and I don't know how much weight love gained (my husband hid the scales lol). But I think it's around 25 pounds. I am seriously devastated. Every time I eat, I feel guilty (don't worry, I'm still eating). I feel like I can't even enjoy being pregnant because I'm so scared of getting so big and not being able to lose it. I feel like at this rate, I'll gain 50 pounds before the baby is born. And to make it worse, I'm about to pass up my husbands weight. And I'm scared that if I gain 50+ I'll be over 200 and I have never been over 150. What can I do to ease this anxiety? I want to enjoy this pregnancy but I haven't been because I am misriable with the weight.
