I'm 31w6d right now and am up 28 lbs. I gained around 35 lbs with both my previous pregnancies and lost a decent amount (20+) in the hospital between baby and fluid, etc.
My weight gain seems to be slowing recently, but I'm also expecting a lot of swelling and water weight to creep on in the next few weeks.
Looks like I gained 12 with DS from week 32- but I went to 42 weeks. I gained 41 pds total. With DD I gained 19 pds from 32 to 41 weeks with 52 pds total. I did stop working out at 27ish weeks bc of SI Joint pain. I swear I ate much less with her and my weight had nothing to do with what I ate bc some weeks I would gain 5 pds.
I am already up 9 pds at 14 weeks which is double what I had gained with my other 2 at this pt. Not good!

I've gained 21 pounds at 34 weeks. I have only gained 1 pound in almost two months, though, as I have GD and the diet has really controlled my weight gain.
They recommended I gain between 25 and 35 pounds based on my starting weight, and I'll probably fall short of that, but baby is a good size and they're not worried.
ETA - I did not have GD with my first, and gained 24 or 26 pounds - can't remember which.
