Well i did the same but cant tell you if this kinda weight is normal as when i fell preggers it triggered my thryoid and it became underactive and i put on 5stone during my pregnancy,went to 17st.
I dont mean to scare you but there is a bit on the sight for normal weight gain,or you could be as you say nearer 13wks instead of 11.
When is your scan? Do come back and let us know how you get on!
Everyone is different as is every pregnancy.
Its normal to put on lots and normal not to.
When you have your next mw appointment she will check for glucose in your urine and if thats fine you can relax and not worry.
Enjoy you pregnancy, and eat when you want, just try to eat healthily.
I put on 5 stone during my first. 4 in my 2nd and nearly 2 in my last, and by 10 weeks looked like I was over halfway there already with pregnancy 2.
You never know, you could be carrying 2!!!
Take care and lets us know how you're doing.
At 7 weeks pregnant I had put on about 6lb and was wearing maternity trousers! I gained 3 stone during my pregnancy and everyone told me that I was eating too much and that I was never going to lose the weight. I lost 2.5 stone during the birth! My baby, placenta and water made up the majority of the weight I gained. I was imense, measured 48 weeks by the time I was 40 weeks. I had a big baby, 11lb 12oz but as people keep saying, each pregnancy is different. Don't worry about weight, just enjoy being pregnant!

And really don't worry about the weight your putting on, i've varied with each of my pregnancies as wellas at each stage of pregnancy.
Let us know how you get the scan goes and how many you're having!!!! xxxx
Hope the scan goes well and like Tasha said let us know how many you are having!
Like the others have said don't worry too much about your weight gain during pregnancy. Especially if you are having twins. Let us know when you've had your scan we'd all love to know.
Take care of yourself.
