Scared to step on the scale

When I first got pregnant and they said I should gain 25-30lbs this pregnancy, I thought they were crazy! Then I noticed I gained 4lbs in the first 5 weeks. Yea ummm now I'm terrified to step on the scale! I hate seeing how much I weigh to begin with, now its even worse. I also talked to lots of moms here at the daycare I work at, and none of them gained less than 40lbs. Say what?!?!

 

So what is "normal" for you to gain? When should I be worried about my weight?
