how much weight have you gained?

PinkaDoodle · May 2011

I think I need to lay off the Taco Bell, chips and icecream. I think my pants are so uncomfortable because I have gained 5 pounds! How much weight have you all gained?

talitha712 · May 2011

None. I've lost weight because I have no appetite and keep getting sick. I'm living on applesauce, crackers, granola bars, and the occasional piece of fruit right now.

Cinco · May 2011

1-2 lbs, and I'm 7 weeks. I gained about 5 in my first trimester with my first two kids, and 25 -30 overall, so I guess I am on track.

jen629 · May 2011

hmmm I have avoided the scale..lol

Mrs.Ash · May 2011

I've gained 4 lbs so far. I don't feel like I'm eating much more and I have a complete aversion to sweets, so maybe I'm bloated? My ankles feel swollen too.

Happy sweet pea day!!!!

illinigal · May 2011

None yet, but I've been eating more than normal. No m/s yet and I've been trying to exercise.

missesBAD · May 2011

i actually lost 2 lbs in the last 9 days since i got my bfp because i am trying to eat much healthier for my little poppyseed. plus, i haven't been craving desserts.

blane2011 · May 2011

I think I've gained about 5, but I don't feel that I'm eating anymore than usual, I think its that I feel so tired I don't want to get up do anything lol

E3A7AGGIE · May 2011

I've gained about 1 to 1-1/2 lbs. And i'm almost positive it's from this constipation =P So uncomfortable!! And then a bit of bloat, too. Blah.

AfterAll · May 2011

I am 8w tomorrow and I am fluctuating between 2-3 lbs, depending on the day.

raches · May 2011

I've only gained 1 lb but my clothes are significantly tighter!

Krystal6826 · May 2011

I am right about even. I lost a few pounds and then have regained them.

SmittyPants · May 2011

I stopped weighing myself when I got my BFP. I know I gained something because my clothes are snugger, but who cares?! I'm knocked up, my clothes are supposed to be getting tighter.

I figure as long as I'm doing my best to stick to healthy foods, and try to get at least some moderate exercise most days, I'm fine. My body will gain what it needs to gain and that will be that.

THe only time I know my weight now is at the Drs office. I was happy with 35 pounds with my first pregnancy but if I gain more this time, it's ok too! I'll worry about losing it after the baby is born!

alschiefer · May 2011

3lbs give or take. Eating much healthier...drinking a lot more fluids...so I'm sure most of it is just bloat...but man can my pants tell!!

CalMum_Momma · May 2011

My weight hasn't budged yet, but with DS I lost 15lbs in my first trimester...then I packed on 50lbs to make up for it. It was a totally healthy pregnancy and my OB was never concerned about the weight gain. I've lost it all and then some. So much so that I really can't afford to lose 15 off the bat again. More power to you if you can eat taco bell!! I couldn't eat anything with DS.

MrsAMB07 · May 2011

Less than a pound, but I've been pretty nauseous for the last two weeks... no appetite and only eating because I have to to try to keep my stomach happy.

Oatoa · May 2011

I'm down about 3 lbs. I think its due to the amount of water I've been drinking instead of soda, coffee and tea that's made the difference.

eec129 · May 2011

I haven't checked....I probably should get on that scale so that I have a good starting point!

blueyedncrazy · May 2011

Im fluxuating between 4 and 6 lbs. I really need to watch it. I know Im suppose to gain weight, but I dont want to get out of control and undo what I worked so hard for. Since having DS 4.5 years ago, I have lost 50 lbs, and I do not want to gain it all back just because "I can eat whatever I want now."

But that last week or so, I have been eating everything that didnt eat me first. Look out!

Redsoxchick · May 2011

I weighed myself the other day and I had gained 1 pound, I hope to keep it that way for a couple more weeks anyway. I have a huge appetite right now, no M/S yeat but I'm trying to stick to healthy foods...and light ice cream at night...for the calcium of course Smile

utilaprincess01 · May 2011

I haven't gained any weight yet. I definitely have a bigger belly, but it's not showing up on the scale.

StarreEyes · May 2011

I haven't gained any weight at all - probably because I always used to eat fast food, and my DH has practically outlawed it, since he doesn't want a hamburger-baby. Or a hotdog-baby, or a frenchfry-baby. So instead we get salad and grilled chicken and fruit.

cschissell · May 2011

About 3lbs and I am fine with that since we had a guest visiting last weekend so there was lots and lots of unhealthy foods. Now I am back to better and healthier eating and also eating a lot less junk.

This is me too, pants are definitely tighter but I haven't actually gained any weight.

littlemonster417 · May 2011

I had gained about 4 lbs, but due to being so sick ive now only gained 2 lbs. Amazing how my pants dont fit though! lol

jenalena · May 2011

I've gained about 4 pounds.. but it feels like 20 in my snug pants! My belly is SO sticking out! I've just recently lost about 35lbs, so I think my body is in shock from eating a normal amount of food, and not limitted calories.

jnickers98 · May 2011

I've gained about 4 lbs, but I think it's more due to our kitchen remodel than pregnancy. I think we ate out for 5 days straight, bleh!

ztalady18 · May 2011

I'm right there with you at 5lbs! I was on a very strict, low calorie diet before we concieved and now that I'm not on it.... well, HELLO 5 lbs! I'm not too worried about it, though.

This! I've been trying to figure out how it's possible.

MrsMeMo · May 2011

I actually have some food issues, and thought i'd be up 10 lbs. by now, but somehow this pregancy is making me eat healthier. Not only do I crave healthier foods (bring on the fruits and veggies), but i'm not hungry as often, and when I eat, I don't feel I need to eat as much. Proud to say I haven't gained a pound!

MrsMitty08 · May 2011

about 3-4 pounds depending on the day

I'm not so sure that's something to be "proud" of necessarily. weight gain is a good thing.

meganruns · May 2011

If I hadn't been avoiding the scale in the last 3 weeks, I'd probably have a better guess than 2-3 pounds? All I do know for sure is that pants with elastic waists are my favorite thing right now.

liveandlove10 · May 2011

I've gained somewhere between 5-10 pounds. It depends on the day and whether I've pooped or not. lol. I got on the scale at my mom's house, and I have never seen the number that was on that scale. I know I'm pregnant, but it was weird.

I've decided to try and eat healthier though.

anhg80 · May 2011

My weight seems to be fluctuating with my... ahem... movements. Depending on whether I can get anything out, I've either gained nothing or 2-3 pounds. It's disturbing.

aemmert360 · May 2011

I've gained about 1-2 pounds. I only weigh myself when I go into the doctor and she does it in kg (.9kg gain) so I'm only guessing about the conversion.

Meganne84 · May 2011

My doctors office said I lost a pound, but according to my home scale, I have gained a pound or 2.
