Obese & 31 weeks Pregnant - 4lbs gained 😔

Hi,

I started my pregnancy very obese. 310lbs & I’m 31 weeks now with a weight gain of 4lbs. My doc told me in the beginning to ONLY gain 10-15lbs & I only eat when hungry, eating nutritious foods & I walk everyday for 20 minutes.

I’m just a little nervous because the weight gain doesn’t seem like enough? Has anyone ever gained only 10-15lbs and had a healthy baby?

Any reassurance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks y’all!
