Last week at around 6 weeks I started noticing that all my pants were getting very tight on me. This week it's gotten to the point where I am thinking about buying a couple pairs of work pants in the next size up and I ordered a pair of jeans from gap with the demi panel for the weekends. I don't think I've been eating out of control or anything but I am trying to get more dairy and whole grains (no longer feeling guilty about eating lots of carbs:). I haven't really gained much weight (maybe a pound in the last month and a half) but am wondering if bloating can make this much of a difference in the way my pants fit! Also, what's healthy for weight gain in the first few months???

I never found anything that helped with the bloat when I was pregnant the first time. Drink lots of water, add a little lemon to it. Make sure you poop regularly.
I can't remember for sure, but I think weight gain in the first trimester is supposed to be like 5lbs or something.
My pants are screaming right now too! I have been exercising regularly and nothing helps. It is definetly better in the morning, but by bed time, I am so much happier in elastic! haha. Other than the bloating and some insomnia, I have had no real pregnancy symptoms. I'm looking forward the "pregnant belly" versus the "bloated belly".
