Need some input on weight gain...21 weeks

I went to the doctor today for a regular 2 week check up, and everything was great when I was 19 weeks "2 weeks ago" I had finally gained 1 pound! well now two weeks later at 21 weeks I gained 3 pounds! so just wondering...I know 4 pounds total is not alot for being 21 weeks pregnant. But how has everyones else's weight gain been after lap band or any type of bariatric surgery? I  really don't think I'm eating any diffrent than what I have been no less or no more than usual. Just would like some feed back on weight gain. I'm 5'7 and started at 160 lbs and now weigh 164 lbs at  21 weeks. Thanks guys

 For me, through my 1st trimester, I gained about 12 lbs.  And then after that I gained anywhere from 2-4lbs per dr visit.  Going weekly now, my gain has slowed, but I'm still gaining 1-2 lbs a week. I'm topping about 35lbs total gain.  I started at 145/150 lbs and now weigh about 182lbs.  Dr is very happy with this and is well within the normal weight gain range.  I'm 5'8

What;s funny is I went for my 21 week check up and have gained exactly 4 lbs also. I am 173 and 5'7! The Dr's happy with that he said to keep gaining a little nit and everything looks GREAT!! DON'T WORRY!!!

I am still overweight post op, but gained 70 with my first po baby and so far only 6 with this one. I think the boy is treating my hormones a little nicer...lol Shari

I lost 17 pounds to start and am slowly gaining it back. Although I hate to watch the scale cause sometimes within a few days I can gain about 4 pounds or so. So I stopped looking cause man was I getting scared!! Seems yours is fine to me though.

Oh I feel so much better now!! LOL I'm 20 weeks and hadn't gained anything until this last week...  4 pounds for me too!  I'm also 5'7 and I started at 165, now 169.  The Dr. has been telling me its ok to gain weight and not for lack of trying I just haven't.  I eat the same as always, possibly more frequently but about my usual.  I had RNY in Jan. 08. It's so comforting to hear others are having similar results!! Best Wishes!!

All you lucky brats!  LOL!     I'm 26 (or so) weeks and I've gained 21 lbs.  Sure it's twins, but still!  I gained 3 lbs this last month.  They were worried that I was dieting or watching my calories.  No...not the case. 

I looked at my previous pregnancy journal and I had gained 21 lbs at 29 weeks.  I then proceeded to continue on that path until I got up to 50 lb gain!  I started that pregnancy at 150 and ended at 200.  I started this pregnancy at 160 and am at 181 right now.  Well, I just ate a ton of pizza so maybe 185 in the morning?  ;-)
