Extreme baby chub

MarieH11 · July 2011

Is anyone else gaining more weight their first trimester then they thought? I have been nauseous on and off the past month but mostly just hungry ALOT. The only reason it is bothering me is b/c I lost over 30 pounds this past year and worked really hard and now it's piling back on faster then I expected. I used to eat healthy constantly and now sometimes I can't stand the sight of most vegetables. Just curious if anyone else is in the same boat as me.

I always said I wasn't going to gain unnecessary weight while pregnant until I actually got pregnant. Like you, I am turned off my vegetables and even chicken and lean meats. The scale doesn't show a big weight gain, but I feel bigger and I know it's all diet related. We'll lose it eventually!

I'm in the same boat! I feel so chubby right now, but I'm so hungry- I don't know what to do! I lost 40 lbs about 8 years ago and kept it off- well it will be back now! I haven't gotten on the scale at home- I figure the baby's health is most important and if I see a huge change in weight, I may try to stop eating, and that's not healthy for the baby. Just try your best- it's not a permanent change!

Honey lemme tell you!!!! I totally knwo where your coming from. First, CONGRATS!! lol

And also in 2006 I was 225 I dropped to 145 by 2008 with a LOT of hard HARD work and dicipline. However in fall 2010 I quit smoking and packed on 30 lbs since then (uuuggg...) now i'm pregnant although I'm really happy to be pregnant I'm devastated that I'm going to be really fat soon, AGAIN

So I've been really trying to watch my calorie intake but make sure I give the baby health stuff. But my honey man loves me and I'm doing it for a greater good of our lives and you bet your ass I'll be hitting the gym as soon as I get clearence from the doc, post pregnancy!

Good luck!
