Just a little interesting information :)

So I found this here. Thought it was a pretty cool little gadget. :D I think I've followed through but I don't think I've gained much of my own weight, just the little baby inside that's been adding the weight to me.

Estimate your pregnancy weight gain

You should gain roughly 25-35 lbs. during your pregnancy.
Over the last two trimesters you should gain about 4 lbs. every 4 weeks.

How it breaks down

If you gained the average of range above, this is where the weight would go (totals are rounded):

Maternal:
Uterus2.39 lbs.
Breasts1.0 lbs.
Blood3.09 lbs.
Water4.15 lbs.
Fat8.27 lbs.
Subtotal18.89 lbs.

Fetal:

Placenta1.6 lbs.
Amniotic Fluid1.97 lbs.
Subtotal11.07 lbs.
