Um yeah, I'm just under 10 weeks and have gained about 5-6 lbs. My appetite has really increased this time around, and I've had the type of morning sickness where I feel ok if I'm constantly eating carbs, but I haven't actually had any vomiting to offset all the eating. I'm just happy my pregnancy is going well, though!
5'9" here, jumped from 150 to 165 in weeks 4-6 and have been steady at that since. Really freaked me out at first, but my doc isn't concerned, especially since it's kept steady. She said some women gain in the beginning, some all throughout, and some at the end and not to worry about it.
I'm ED recovering/recovered so I'm very, VERY careful with scales and look to my doctor for guidance.
ETA: I'm 13 w 4 d now (if you can't see my ticker)
I am 12 weeks and haven't gained any weight which is great since I never lost the baby weight from my son!
I never lost the weight from my son, either. Tried, but it refused to come off. So I'm hoping to limit the gain with this one. I staunchly refuse to own a scale, though, so I'm going by pant fit. They're still pretty good, so I'm hoping my cinnamon roll addiction hasn't hurt too bad yet.
I'm almost 11 weeks and haven't gained anything despite eating quite a lot more. Definitely feel fatter though, probably because I barely go to the gym these days and muscle has converted to fat.
I'm 10w2d and I'm up 5 pounds, but I have not been eating the best....I've really been liking slaty foods. I'm really going to try not to gain more in the next three weeks......I want to stay at a 25 lb gain for the whole pregnancy.....I didn't have any m/s and have been more hungry than usua..
I've been considering doing another whole30. It's all real, healthy food, so there'd be no risk to baby. I just don't know if I'm ready to eat so much meat again.
At 10 weeks I gained 2 lbs. now almost 13 weeks, I lost 2 lbs. Looks like I'll escape the first trimester with no to little gain. Hoping to stay active and stay healthy and gain only what's needed to sustain a healthy pregnancy and a tiny extra for ice cream breaks.
I've gained about 2-3 pounds so far at 13 weeks. With my first pregnancy, I gained about 20 pounds when I delivered at 35 weeks. My doctors want me to gain at least 25 pounds, but would be happier if I gained closer to 30 pounds. I guess time will tell!
I'm 5.5 and I was 143 when I got pregnant. I've been checking weekly and had maintained even though I mainly ate carbs when I had M/S. Got sick last week and lost a pound. I'm 12+1 today but haven't checked since last week so not sure if I gained anything this week or not. I've ate a lot of sweets this week My doc said I should gain between 20-25 pounds during this pregnancy. Based on info online I should be allowed 25-35 lbs but I'll try to stick to 20 if possible although I've read you should gain a pound a week through 2nd and 3rd trimester which scares me cause that would be 28 lbs. yikes!!!!
I'm almost 11 weeks and haven't gained anything despite eating quite a lot more. Definitely feel fatter though, probably because I barely go to the gym these days and muscle has converted to fat.
I'm 100% with you there! I'm lucky to get an hour long walk in once a week from being so tired!
I climbed 6 lbs between weeks 6 and 8 because the only way I could hold off the nausea was to eat a TON of carbs. Thankfully that stopped and I dropped 2 lbs, and have held steady at 4 lbs for the last almost 4 weeks. I'm so glad, because I really want to stay toward the bottom of the recommended weight gain range for my weight (15-25)
At 11w3d, I have lost 2 lbs, and some days the scale says I regained almost one of those pounds. I was trying really hard to lose weight before, cooking healthy foods from scratch, working out almost every day. With the ms, I've only been able to really stomach ice cream and carbs. I can't keep meat down to save my life. I'm hoping to only gain around 20, though, so at least I'm off to a good start...
I'm 9w4d and I've gained 5 pounds. Haven't had much of an appetite but haven't thrown up. Not sure how I gained the weight I'm wondering if it's from bloat or water. I feel like a beached whale.
i want to add that this is my second,and i gained a lot, and i mean A LOT with my first. all and all was close to 80 pounds. yea! i said 80.
i'm going to definitely try to watch myself this time, but it did come off pretty quick the first time, so ladies, don't worry! you'll be back to your normal self someday
@LizzyIsOKC....I'm in your same boat with the ED recovery....and the weight gain more in the first trimester...8 lbs....I haven't been eating totally crazy, but the whole not making it to the gym thing due to MS is killing me. Doesn't feel good to see the rise so quickly this time around, but realizing it's all about the outcome of a healthy baby!!
I'm 11+3 and have gained around 4-5 pounds. In the last week my belly has turned from bloat and squishy to round and hard. My 3 month old nephew has discovered it to be a great seat!
I had been doing crossfit for a year before I got pregnant. I am overweight so doctor does not want me gaining much weight. I have lost 6 pounds since the beginning of pregnancy just from feeling sick and not eating much. I have usually stayed in the 20 pounds range as weight gain in all my pregnancies. I usually don't gain until around 30 weeks or so, then I gain 2-3 pounds a week. But I have a tendency for HBP at the end of pregnancy so we are going to have to deal with that again too I am sure.
I'm 13 weeks today and my records show a gain of 2.5 since I got positive HPT. Between my first and second doctor's appointments, I lost 1/4 pound. I am happy and feel like I'm right on track. And my appetite is picking up so I'm sure I'll be putting on some baby weight soon.
I'm 11 1/2 weeks. Down 8lbs from all the morning sickness. So hopefully that ends soon. My first pregnancy I lost 12lbs before gaining anything. I gained 18 1/2 first time around. Hopefully around the same this time.
I'm 6' and 9w6d, I gained about 2-5 pounds depending on the day haha I am not showing, but have a fat bubble from getting out of shape before getting pregnant. I know if I get back out to walk every day again I will get it under control but was put on light duty until Thu when my dr can scan again. I'm hoping to only gain 20 during this pregnancy.
Side note: I was 18w with twins before I started showing last time and I lost 30# in the first tri. Tall people generally don't show until later and we tend to look like we ate all the pies before people realize we're pregnant!
12 weeks and also tall and I have lost 6-7# from my weight at 5 weeks (which was up with early pregnancy bloating and vacation bloating). have lost about 3# from my pre-pregnancy weight mostly food aversions I guess, since I have only had a couple minutes at a time of MS.
5'8 and 11w5d. Started at 127lbs lost 7 lbs during week 8-9 (MS, throwing up for 2 days straight) I have gained 3 lbs back since being at 120 lb. I've never put on weight easily and have always been poked at for being thin so I am excited to gain weight!
I'll be 14 weeks tomorrow and have gained 5lbs - all belly and boobs. Gained them pretty fast in the first 11 weeks because I had to keep food in my stomach to not feel nauseous, but I'm feeling better and hope to stay on track so I gain around 25.
