To those worried about what they have gained - please keep this in mind!
hopefully this will allow you to cut yourself a break, and remember that a lot of the increasing pounds you see on a scale aren't from the ice cream and pickles, but your baby and body.
Where do the pregnancy Pounds go?
Maternal stores of nutrients and muscle development - 7 Pounds
Increased body fluid 4 Pounds
Increased blood 3 - 4 Pounds
Breast growth 1 - 2 Pounds
Enlarged uterus 2 Pounds
Amniotic fluid 2 Pounds
Placenta 1.5 Pounds
Baby 6 - 8 Pounds
Total 26.5 - 30.5 Pounds

The only way I can justify it is, that they need to get a bit bigger to support this big as$ belly, otherwise I will topple over. LOL
