and a weight gain question

so, let me preface this by saying I really don't care how much weight I gain, I gained 40 and 43 pounds with my first two pregnancies, which is considerable, HOWEVER....at my 15 week check up I gained THIRTEEN pounds!  (for perspective, I gained FIVE at 15 weeks with both of my previous pregnancies)  I mean this is HUGE!  my doctor doesn't care, said that with people who are really sick like I was that they either lose weight or gain it from all the carbs they are eating trying not to be sick.  but I mean, vomitting 3-4 times a day should not equal 13 pounds!!!  I think I'm going to break a serious world record this time around!  anyway, just wondering if anyone else was so lucky to be a circus sideshow freak like me?  :)

    Isn't it crazy how every pregnancy is so different?!  Anyway, with Colin, I gained a pound a week until the last couple of weeks and I lost a couple then.  So you're not alone :)  Are you feeling any better?

    With both pregnancies, my weight gain has come in huge spurts.  About 10-13 lbs at a time.  Then I will stay the same for a month or two and then bam, it all hits again.  I did get the warning from the OB a couple appointments ago when I had gained 13 lbs in 3.5 weeks.  But then I only gained about 1 lb by next appointment even though I was clearly way bigger in the belly.  So I think I'm just weird.

    65 pound weight gain here.  Reason #1 that I'm terrified of getting pregnant again.

    I only threw up once or twice with Caroline, but if I got hungry at all then I felt like total a$$, so I pretty much spent the first trimester stuffing my face...

    I'm in the same boat you are Heather. I have been sick at least twice a day since 5 weeks and thought for sure I hadn't been able to gain much. At my 12 week appt Monday, I was up 8 lbs. At this rate I'll surpass my 40 lb weight gain last time in no time.
