How much weight should we be gaining at this stage?

Hiya everyone, just wondering how much weight everyone has put on so far? I'm not really sure how much is classed as healthy at this point.

I think everyone is different, but most people start getting big at 16/17 weeks ...

I'm nearly 14 weeks and already i'm quite big ... which is scary!

I have started to get a bump and a girl asked me the other day if I was pregnant because of it lol

but I have actually lost half a stone through sickness

I've got quite a big belly but i've still got a huge appetite so i thik that's helping the process

I'm about 6/8weeks but baby 3 so i'm showing already lol - have lost 14lb since found out pregnant which was 3.5 weeks ago! but i had just joined weight watchers and you can carry on going till week 12.

I did read somewhere that you have usually put on around 5lb by week 20 and then 1lb week for next 20 weeks, although i started out overweight so it says 1/2lb a week for 20 weeks for me!

I'm going to carry on eating healthy so am hoping to not put any weight on if i can. My aunt is a size 10 and had a 9.4 baby and only put on 14lb and he was VERY healthy (was her 4th)
