Weight Gain

Alexandra
Before I started my pregnancy I was a pretty average weight (fluctuating between 130-140 depending on diet and exercise.) When I got pregnant I was around 135 and now I'm at an even 150 after 18 weeks, that's about 15lbs (give or take) and even this little bit of extra weight is KILLING me 😭 my back is constantly in pain sometimes to the the point I can't move and my hips feel like they have extreme pressure on them. I don't know if I can handle another 10lbs to reach the average 25lb gain durning pregnancy. Help is this normal??
