35 pounds is at the high end of what is considered normal, healthy weight gain for a pregnant woman. My doctor told me when I was pregnant last year that anything between 25 and 35 would be fine.

As with many things in this world, it all depends on the individual. 25-35 lbs is considered average, but there are women who will gain much more or much less during their pregnancy and still be fine.

If a woman is slender to begin with, she will often gain a bit more than average than when pregnant. If a woman is overweight to begin with, she will often gain less/gain none/sometimes lose weight when pregnant.

As long as a woman remains healthy during her pregnancy (meaning, no gestational diabetes, no high blood pressure/pre-eclampsia, etc...) even a weight gain of 40-50 lbs can be "okay". Being pg does not mean you have free-reign to eat Bic Macs and cheetos all the live long day, though (which I think dear Brit-Brit was fond of doing more often than not).

And I heard it was Shawn Preston Spears Federline, too.

Has thinking ever been on her list of achievements at all?

You know, I figured out when it was that I stopped liking her. It was when she kept saying that she was a virgin, but was living with Justin Timberlake. I think everyone knew they were having sex, and I just wanted her to admit it. I mean she LIED!

That's why I always liked Christina Aguilera more... At least she didn't lie about bein a little bit skanky. She was just fine with it. :)

Did she really gain 50 pounds? I never saw a picture of her that didn't show she was ALL baby. As mentioned before, it does depend on the person. I gained 60 (I know) with my first pregnancy, and I've gained 10 this time...well plus the 15 that I hadn't gotten rid of. My first pregnancy caused me to retain all kinds of water!

It'll be curious to see how she looks afterwards. It really made me sick seeing Kate Hudson after her baby. She didn't even look like she'd had one! Plus Brit-Brit's breastfeeding...that'll help her loose some of it.

That's bound to happen when you live on a diet of Cheetos and Red Bull. :D

Gosh Darn it....can't she just go in and have a baby like a normal person? I understand that with a C-Section its a little different, but everyone else I knew that had a baby was out of the hospital the next day.

Did anyone tell Britney that its a HOSPITAL...not a 5 star hotel?

About the C-sections...apparently, that's the trendy thing to do now. Around here, at least; all my sister's friends married rich men and they all had C-sections because it was more convenient (they could fit childbirth into their busy schedules more easily--how nice!), and she was about to tear herself to have one, too. She even scheduled one with her doctor, but she ended up going into labor early and her doctor wouldn't give her the C-section even though my sister kept asking her for it. I think it's because that particular doctor also does a tummy tuck along with the C-section...

Every time I saw a picture of a *very* pregnant Britney, her tatas were flopping around everywhere.

I know, pregnancy gives a girl a nice rack, but if you don't wear a bra and give those puppies some support they'll look like a couple of socks with a marble in the toe when it's all over.

AMEN! SUPPORT your boobies!!!

See, now she's more like Christina. But I liked it better when she said she didn't. I mean it was never the publics business to know whether her or Justin had sex or not. I mean, why did we really care?

She said she was like a virgin when she was 16/17ish...and then 2 years(both of them said it took 2 years) into their relationship they had sex.

I just never felt it was anyones business. I mean if I was celebrity I wouldn't be telling people "OMG you guys I just lost my virginity".

So I liked it better when she didn't say anything.

OMG! LMAOROTF! I love the comparison! That is hilarious. You can bet she will be having a little lift on the boobies. I'm sure she has no idea of what happens to the girls after you breast feed! I can't believe that she wanted a C-section!?! Have fun recovering with that one.

I just saw a report that it's Princeton-Joseph Spears Federline.

Oh darn. And here I was hoping for Little Dartmouth!

ROFLMAO!
