I gained 40 lbs with both my other two and am on my way to doing the same this time. I am eating way healthier this pregnancy and although I do look a little better, the weight is still adding on. I am 5'2" as well. I started my first pregnancy at 19 yrs old and 114 lbs. The second pregnancy I started 6 lbs heavier and this time I started another 6 lbs heavier so I started this one at 126 and not looking forward to trying to loose the weight but as long as baby is healthy then I wouldn't worry if I were you. Just know that the later in pregnancy you go, the quicker the weight increases. I had only gained 3 lbs by my 20 week appt and now at almost 32 weeks I have gained a total of 29 lbs. good luck and congrats on being a first time mommy!
I was 5'2'' and 110lbs when I got pregnant with my son. I gained 60lbs with him!
No matter what you eat and drink, you will gain whatever your body and baby need you to gain.
Quoting mommy9518:
As long as you are ok with it and your dr has not expressed any concerns then its fine.
