I made 16 weeks yesterday and at my 14 week appointment i had gained 7 lbs so don't feel bad. i was only 104 lbs though when i got pg so my doctor didn't seem concerned. i haven't been to the doctor since so i don't know what i way now. What is your due date?

I'm just about 15 weeks and have gained 7 pounds, too. I feel huge! I was a pretty average weight before (5'4 130) but these 7 little pounds have made me feel like a different person. I'm not overeating either, although I don't feel good enough to go to the gym these days and I definitely have to eat more to combat the (still lingering) morning sickness. I'm hoping when that goes away, I'll start light exercising again and that will help.

thanks ladies for you response. Js- my due date is June 8th. Tillie- I am the same way....I think my weight gain is b/c I'm not working out that much anymore. before I was pregnant I worked out 6 days a week, and was in really good shape. I felt too sick for most of the 1st trimester, and now I am too tired after work to deal with working out. I'm sure if I had kept it up I would not have gained the weight I gained. Oh well, I guess I will worry about it after I have the baby.

Jenn, that's my feeling too. I already have big plans to get into incredible shape post-baby! If I have two minutes to spare then. I can't believe how hard it is to even THINK about the gym after work anymore--now I wonder how I ever did it. And it's a little intimidating seeing photos of Denise Richards and Heidi Klum in magazines, sporting perfect bodies two months after labor! Somehow I don't think that will be me...

You guys----I weighed 122 pounds pre-pregnancy and when I went to my 14 week doctor's appointment---now 15 weeks, I weighed 150 pounds. Now that is a lot of weight. Yau'll are concerning me now---I wonder if it is not a good thing.

Hi I am 18 weeks and have lost 8 pounds so far. I am trying hard to gain but its just not happening. My belly keeps growing though. Has this happened to anyone else?

Tiffany, I am 15 weeks and have lost 7 lbs. I too am trying to eat. My dr said not to worry that baby isn't really adding any weight to you right now and said I may make up for it over the holidays. I think her term was "gives me a little lee way over the holidays!"

I was 16 wks on Monday and so far I have put on around 9 lbs and it just keeps going up...I eat healthy stuff though and I don't really see much fat on me, so I don't mind right now...However, Xmas is coming up and I'm afraid I'll ditch my healthy eating habits for a planned 4 days (I intend to be very BAD...)

tiffany, im just like u im 18 weeks today and i have been losing weight in my first 4 months due to bad nausea and vomiting.. i lost 13 pounds but in my last dr appointment, i was 17w2d and i had gained 1 pound!! although my belly is growing still

I'M 15 WEEKS AND I'VE GAINED 3 LBS. I WAS A LITTLE HEAVY TO START WITH FROM MY FIRST PREGNANCY, WHICH ONLY ENDED ABOUT 7 MONTHS AGO!

I'm 16w2d now. I was pretty sick the first 13 weeks. I did lose around 4 or 5 lbs. At my last apt at 12.5 weeks i still didn't gain any weight. I have my next apt tomarrow. I do feel that i now have put on weight, i'm sure a few lbs. I'll let you know tomarrow. I can tell that my stomach is growing though.

hi jenn, I am Jenn too. I have gained only 1 pound, and I think that was in this past week-christmas cookies :)-I gained a lot with my son and this time I am working with a nutritionist. Oh, I am 16 weeks 3 days today. I am still way too tired to find time to exercise, especially after chasing my 17 month old all day.

Hey Jenn (#2)--what sorts of things does your nutritionist recommend to keep your weight in better control with this pregnancy? What are you doing differently this time? Just curious. A nutritionist must be an enormous help!

I'm two days shy of 16 weeks and have gained 6 lbs.

I'm 15 weeks and I've lost 10lbs, but as i'm overweight my midwife isn't worried

I am 18 weeks and I have lost 7 pounds. I wasn't overweight, I weighed about 146 pre-pregnancy, and now I weight 139. My doctor said it was from the baby feeding of my fat storage....
