Indulge or not?

My doctor told me at my 36 week appointment to watch how much I eat after I gained 4 lbs in 2 weeks. She said this is the month where gaining too much weight could affect the suede of the baby. But I’m also sooo incredibly starving all the time lately. I’ve gained about 40 lbs all together so far, but haven’t had this huge appetite up until now. I feel like I should listen to my body if it’s making me feel like this but I’m also scared of gaining too much weight. Baby is also measuring a week behind so I don’t see how I’d be risking having a huge baby. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
