It all depends on the woman. I know this is probably not what you want to hear, but it's true. Some women don't gain anything by this point, some put on a lot. It all just depends on how your body wants to store fat and nutrients for the baby. If your baby is growing really well, it would safe to say you could gain up to 5-10 pounds a month at this point. Later in pregnancy, that will slow down as the baby gets bigger and mom isn't eating as much. For me, I usually gain more during the 20-24 weeks month then any other time. That's just normal for me.

I'm at 23 weeks and have gained 8 pounds so far. I am 5'6" and was 138 before I got pregnant. The doctor says I'm right where I should be.

I am 25 weeks and so far I've gained 19 pounds all together. My last appt. was on Saturday and I gained 12 pounds in the last 4 weeks! I couldn't believe it cuz I didn't think it was that much but it looks like it's all in my belly. My doctor didn't say anything so I figured I'm doing alright. I'm glad to see that I'm not alone (after seeing all the other answers).

I'm 24 weeks and I've gained 30 .. people are shocked because they say they can't tell i've gained that much (its mostly all in my belly)
but I do have a lot of water retention that is contributing .. but I'm walking ... and my blood pressure is low!
*I know I've probably gained more than I should .. but I feel great! and am healthy will all my tests :)
good luck! God bless!

About 10-15 pounds.
I have lost 15 so far (while eating like a horse) so I hope that I can start working on my gain pretty soon here...
