Weight gain - desired rates?

[clucky77]

So after my midwife being concerned about my weight in tri 1 and referring me to a dietician, I now feel like a porker!

I lost 1kg in tri 1, and then in the last month I have put on 6 kgs (net gain = 5kgs)... which seems like so much so quickly! I found a site where you enter your weight and height and it calculates your desired weight gain, which is 6.8 KGs for me.

Is this my 5KG increase between weeks 14 and 18 too much and too fast?

Thanks

Everyone is different so try not to worry. Do you definitely mean Kgs and not lbs just to check?
