I only gained 18 lb. when I was pregnant with my son, and I ate well. I never got the raging hunger some pregnant women do, but I ate a tad more than normal and tried to eat healthy. My son was 8 lb. 4 oz. so I did something right.

I gained a little more with DD, like 21-22 lbs. but I wasn't as careful about what I ate. I craved shrimp lo mein and ate it often. She was 7 lb. 14 oz. when she came out, but I had a scheduled delivery, almost 2 weeks early, so if she had been full term she would've weighed at least what my son did.

What I don't get is these women that gain enormous amounts of weight over their pregnancies and then have these 6 lb. babies. What's up with that?
