Well im not sure exactly. I am 4'11 and I weighted 98lbs. Before I got pregnant. I am now 38 weeks pregnant and I have gained like 50 lbs!!! Its terrible. :( I hate being so big, but I only have a huge belly. I dont really have big legs or anything. My boobs are like to a 36 d!!! So I guess the weight thing just depends on everyones body. But as long as the baby is healthy you can always lose the weight. Oh and I didnt start gaining any weight till I was like...22 weeks...So I dont know..Maybe im just a fatty :(

I guess you could say in a way I started to gain almost right away cuz I always a pound or two right before my period and thats how it also was when I got pregnant, only there was a lot more to follow. In the first 12-13 weeks I didn't really gain much, like 4 lbs, but I sure felt like was a lot heavier in my tummy. Then around 12-13 weeks is when I started to really pack on the pounds and inches. I'm 24 weeks now (25 weeks tomorrow) and i've put on 23 lbs and gone from 120 to 143, and I don't even wanna know how many inches.

Oh yeah, i'm 5'6 but i've got really long legs and thats where all my height is, so i'm really short thru the middle and there's nowhre to absorb or disguise any of those extra pounds and everyone says they're all out in front even tho it feels different to me.

I am only 5'1" I have only gained like 5 pounds and I am at 20 weeks. I didn't eat much in the first 12 weeks so I kinda lost weight. You should start gaining weight here soon
