Is this ok?

Question

I have officially gained 10 pounds and will be seven months pregnant on Saturday.(My BMI was 26% before pregnancy so I was considered overweight)

Answer

It's totally ok! For those of us overweight or obese and pregnant watching our weight has to be a top priority. My cousin is due a few days after me and we both are supposed to watch our weight gain. She hasn't been and had to stop working bc of contractions and then the baby moved to breech for now and was kicking so hard she thought it was contractions again and had to go to the hospital. It might not all be due to weight gain....but I haven't had any complications and I haven't begun gaining weight yet. I'm supposed to start in the third trimester and it's mostly supposed to be baby. So I believe the connection between slow and low weight gain and a healthy pregnancy if overweight.

Answer

That's awesome that you gained only 10 lbs. My bmi prepregnancy was around 25-26, so I'm in the same boat as you as being overweight. this pregnancy I've gained 35 lbs so far, and I'm 29 weeks. My OB isn't worried at all.

Answer

Sounds like a good weight gain to me. I am also 30 weeks pregnant and have only gained 10 pounds my BMI was 30.5 so also considered overweight. Doctors keep telling me that I shouldn't gain more then 20 pounds the entire pregnancy. And from
Now on the baby should be gaining about half a pound for the upcoming weeks.

Answer

I've only gained 10lbs as well. I've sick for awhile though.
