Normal weight gain or to much?

Question

So when I first got pregnant I was at 186 and I would fluctuate between 186-190 then after I found out I got pregnant gained the weight to 194 but the nausea made me go down to 189. My last appointment I went to I was 191 or 192 which was on January 6 today I weighed myself and I’m weighing 196 was that a lot to go up in like 2 weeks with my 1st daughter I gained a lot of weight and quick and he only wants me to gain 15 pounds in this pregnancy. I don’t see him til the 3rd so I don’t know how much more weight I’ll gain is it bad?

Answer

I’m around your weight range, currently 186 because I’ve lost weight this pregnancy due to bad nausea and vomiting but I range into the mid to upper 190s. I’ll just say doctors will always have an opinion about weight and how much weight to gain in pregnancy but the real priority should be are you healthy. Is blood pressure doing ok, does the glucose test go ok, etc. imo just eat as healthy as you can (knowing sometimes with sickness that means anything you can keep down) and let nature take it’s course. Some women gain a lot some don’t, but healthy on other factors like BP are what really matters.
