So, I know everyone hates these weight gain posts but I seriously gained 3 pounds since yesterday...WTF!?!?  Maybe I just haven't been watching what I'm eating close enough!  So, if everyone really watching it?  I'm thinking I'm gonna go clean....fruits, veggies and lean meats...we'll see if I can stick to it but I can't be gaining 3 pounds in a day!! YIKES!

    You also have to take into account the hormones and the water fluctuation they can cause in the body. Your sodium intake can also have a lot to do with this.

    stop weighing yourself every day. Your weight is going to fluctuate a lot because like the PP above me said of things like water and sodium. Plus the time of day, if you just ate or if its been awhile, what you are wearing. Just weigh yourself once a week if you feel the need to, that should give you a better representation of how you are actually gaining. I'm kind of glad I don't own a scale. I generally will weigh myself once in between my monthly appointments to see how I"m doing (I weigh myself at the gym), but I don't stress about it. I've only gained 4-5 pounds so far (we'll get a true number tonight at my appointment). I was also overweight to begin with though and should only gain 15 pounds total.

    Don't freak out about your weight. And like the previous posters said...don't weigh yourself every day. You weight is going to be all over the place. And, eventually your weight gain will slow. I gained a crazy amount until about 5 weeks ago, and haven't gained another pound. It was the same for my first as well. :) Just remember that you have a cute baby growing inside of you, and your weight isn't all that important right now.

    I just eat when I'm hungry & stop when I'm satisfied, try to eat more healthy foods, & supplement with prenatal vitamins. Haven't really been watching my weight. I would drive myself crazy if I weighed myself constantly.
