Weight gain in pregnancy, is it enough?

I'm 28 weeks pregnant, saw Midwife and I haveonly put on 5 1/2 pounds since I saw her at 6 weeks. That doesn't seem alot. I was slightly overweight before but nothing major.

Everyone is different and gains differing amounts of weight....
I would count yourself lucky, by 20weeks i had put on 2 stone!!
my friend had only gained a stone by 40 weeks, and her baby weighed over 9lbs!

everybodys weight gain is different ... i had only put on about 9lbs by the time i was 29weeks,,,then piled the weight on in the last 6 weeks,,,also it will depend on how much excercise youve done during the pregnancy,,,xxxx

there is so set weight gain you really should have.Yes that does not sound like a lot but if your were already overweight depending on how much you weight you are right where you should be for this stage.
