Hi ladies! I had my appointment today and i just have a couple questions. First, how much weight have you all gained by this point (single baby). I was freaked out because i gained 7 lbs in 4 weeks time. Total is 14 lbs since the beginning so they told me that's ok (I'm only 5 ft 1in and started at 148 lbs). I just hope it doesn't keep going up that quick! Second, I had another ultrasound today. The tech told me he is breach right now, and i'm sure he can still move enough to get in the correct position, but have any of you had this happen? Hope everyone is doing well!

My Dr said mine is still breech too, (24wks today) and he will send me for another ultrasound to be sure.
My first two were breech till 37 and 36 weeks and were 8lb10 and 9lb8, so Im sure there is lots of turning room in there for a while.Im 5'6, started at 141 lbs and am 150 now...with the other two: I was around the same with one, and at 16lbs weight gain with the other by 24 weeks. They told me both were normal. That 7lbs can be baby, fluid and all kinds of water distributed all over your body, 14lbs is good, dont worry! As long as you know youre eating healthy and youre somewhat active, youll be fine.
