I am 5'10 and I was approx 210 when I got preg. I have a large frame. I am now 237 and 35 wks. I have same typical belly as when I had my son (I weighed 165 at beginning- right out of college I was a green bean with wide shoulders and hips) but my weight gain has not been as intense as it was with him. Only difference is a little bit squishier below my belly button and it doesn't feel as though my skin is going to pop.
