It's normal to gain faster at the end of second and through the third trimester. per ACOG women who are overweight at the beginning of pregnancy are advised to only gain 15-20lbs.

I'm 217 (last time I was weighted) My doctor told me to gain between 11-15 pounds total because I'm considered obese you might be around the same gain :) congrats! I have the same issue. My first I gained 45 pounds and only lost half of that, I'm pregnant with my second and have gained 4 pounds (13 week)

I started at 201 and unfortunately I gained almost 60 pounds with mine. They only wanted me to gain 15. I ate how I normally do which isn't horrible but isn't great. I think for me as I got bigger my already messed up back and pelvis starting hurting more and more and I wanted to vomit at the thought of taking a walk. I was absolutely physically miserable in my pregnancy from20 weeks on. I weigh 245 now 4 months pp and it's been extremely hard to lose. Not making any progress at this point. I am eating a lot of whole grains, lean meat and veggies. I have not been able to increase my water intake and get rid of the Red Bull (not sleeping much baby gets up every couple hours). The Red Bull and coffee gets me through my work day which involves deep concentration. One of these days I hope I'll be able to get rid of the sugary caffeine drinks and also increase activity but mentally I cannot handle adding anything else into my already insanely crazy day. Good luck

I gained 5 pounds in 4 weeks but it slowed down again. It happens. They worry about overall weight gain.

I am a bigger girl was 238 when I got pregnant I lost 12 pounds at the start an now at 30 weeks I'm 245 so I out on 19 pounds an my doctor is fine with it

I think as long as your doc says it's okay it's good! my first trimester I gained 2lbs and then my last visit I had gained 5. but doc said she was thrilled with my steady weight gain. I was 200 starting out. now up to 207.

I started at 260 ended 305 a month pp I was 27lbs down. I only gained 8lbs the first 20w then it came like crazy
