Oh really!!!

I had a doctors appt today and everything looks great! My sweet mother inlaw came with me cause Heath was working in Idaho, it was so fun to have her there and experience it with her. I am almost 23 weeks and the baby is growing as it should I got to see hands and a 4D profile shot of the face! But while we were waiting I was telling her how proud I was that my weight is so low and I have only gained 13 pounds, which is great for me. So the doc comes in and we do the ultrasound and all, and then he proceeds to inform me that I should weigh myself at my next visit because they will not, and I need to keep track cause I gained more last month. What the &^%#! He said that a women only needs to gain 16 pounds for a healthy pregnancy. 16 really are you kidding me! And that by 20 weeks you only should have gained 2! Yes this is from a study and not actual reality but really who can do that? Then he ended with although average weight gain is about 34 pounds. I have decided I like average better than science.
