I am currently 9 months pregnant.. well in my 9th month depending on how you count it 34 1/2 weeks I weight 162 and was originally 136 lbs which would give me about a 26 lb weight gain.. I have bicornuate uterus and the baby weighs in at about 5 1/2 lbs.. I'm 5'5 ft 1/2in.. I just was curious if my weigh range is healthy? I'm having a boyyyyy so I wasn't sure if that effects the size of your body compared to having a girl..

I had my baby boy a little over a month early (35 weeks) and he was born at 5 lbs 2 ounces. I am 5'7" and I had gestational diabetes. I gained nearly 30 lbs in that time. In the beginning my doctor told me that I should gain about 25 lbs. So it seems to me that you are right on track for a health baby.
By the way he is extremely healthly and happy. He is 1 month and 2 1/2 weeks old.
