You're just fine. Talk to your doctor at your next appointment about his/her expectations for your weight gain.

Well, usually they say the normal weight to gain is between 25-35 pounds. That wasn't the case for me. I gained over 50 pounds with my son. I had a healthy baby boy. Every person is different. There is really not a "you should gain this much" figure. Congratulations and good luck...

i didnt gain much at all until i really started showing, that sounds like a good amount of weight, if your worried ask your doctor, but if your doctor is worried about your weight he or she will say so, but believe me, for 21 weeks, you might just be a little under weight..but its good.

you have only gained 12 pounds, and your half way through your pregnancy, and have not gained half of the normal 25-30 pound weight gain. So, I say your biggest concern is why your not gaining a little more.
