to answer the question - no .
women can gain up to 65 pounds during pregnancy safely. 25 - 35of those are amniotic fluid and the fundus, and of course around 6 - 7 is baby. so it is only a gain of about 23 pounds or so.

Don't worry lots of women gain more than the recommended weight and if your Dr. isn't worried don't stress! If you still feel bad then watch what your eating, stay away from the starchy junk foods and eat lots of fruit and veggies. If you eat a balanced healthy diet you can control the amount of weight you gain. You can also talk to a nutritionist and they can make up a food plan for you.

If you are concerned you can see a nutritionist or someone at your Dr's office, even a nurse and they will help you come up with a plan to watch what you eat while getting all the vitamins and nutrients you need.
