Do Slim Ladies Gain Weight Quicker?
At 14 weeks, I've gained 11 lbs. already. Of course I started at 96 lbs. (avg for my petite height).
Everyone tells me that it's natural since I am supposedly skinny to begin with. :P
Just curious, for the slim ladies out there, do you put on weight fairily quickly? And did the weight gain taper off?

My sister did. She is 5 foot and weighed just under 100 lbs. At 22 weeks she now weighs 137 lbs. She doesn't even eat a lot.

Re: Do Slim Ladies Gain Weight Quicker?
I think that's generally the case. I am overweight, and at 14 weeks I haven't gained a pound. I asked my OB if that was OK, and she said that the lighter you are to begin with, the more you tend to gain, and the sooner you tend to start gaining.

I have gained 6 pounds in almost 22 weeks, so for me I have not gained much. I showed very quickly and early though. I am normally a size 2. I think it really depends on the person.

Re: Do Slim Ladies Gain Weight Quicker?
I'm 26 weeks and pretty thin, I haven't gained much at all but I had very bad MS in the beginning so I lost some weight. I started showing at 8 weeks though, couldn't hide it from anyone

Re: Do Slim Ladies Gain Weight Quicker?
I think it depends on your own body and possibly if you had m/s or not. I was very queasy and nauseous in the beginning and during the first 13 weeks I gained 3 pounds...I have also been watching more of what I eat and trying not to eat junk food...that could have had something to do with it too.
But I also started showing really early and had a hard time keeping the secret.
