Weight Gain

I started my pregnancy at a "normal" weight, so the doctors recommend a weight gain of 25-35 pounds during pregnancy. This is additionally broken down by trimester. A woman of normal pre-pregnancy weight should gain 3-5 pounds during the first trimester, and 1-2 pounds each week in the second and third trimesters. So far, I am right on track. I gained 4 pounds my first trimester and have gained 1 pound each week of my second trimester. I'm feeling pretty good about that! Now, if I can just stay away from the Long John Silver's...
