Spinoff.. Who is GAINING in the first tri?
I always hear about people losing .. or not gaining anything in the first tri.
In my first pregnancy I was up about 10-12lbs in the first trimester!! I seemed to be the only one I knew who gained that much and it's not like I was eating some crazy amount. I didn't really have m/s... so I wasn't really nauseous and did have a bigger appetite, but still.
This time I am 9wks now and up 4lbs already.
Who else has gained in the first trimester? Make me feel better!!

Re: Spinoff.. Who is GAINING in the first tri?
I'm up about 6 lbs at 12.5 weeks.
Even when I felt nauseous -- I wanted to eat. And nothing sounds bad. Everything sounds AMAZING.
And I'm always always always hungry so I'm eating constantly.
Just trying to make sure I have fruits and veggies around. You know, on the side with my pizza

Re: Spinoff.. Who is GAINING in the first tri?
I'm 10w and have gained 2 pds. Last time at 20 weeks I had gained 10 pounds, but I was also a lot heavier going in to my last pregnancy....since I dropped 20 pds between August-November, I'm at a much better starting point! So I actually don't mind weight gain at all, I just hope I don't LOOK pregnant until I'm 16 weeks and I'm comfortable with telling everyone at work! lol You are a tiny thing anyway so don't worry too much!! If it makes you feel better I had FIVE cupcakes in ONE day last weekend LOL

I gained about 10lbs in the first 12 weeks. I had no MS, but I was always hungry.
Now at 25 weeks, I'm up about 20lbs.

Re: Spinoff.. Who is GAINING in the first tri?
When I was pregnant with Anthony, I was up like 15lbs by 12 weeks. With this pregnancy, I was up 2lbs by 12 weeks. I think a lot has to do with my starting weight... I was about 10lbs heavier at the start of this pregnancy.
At 41 weeks, I gained a total of about 45lbs with Anthony and at 2 weeks PP, I lost almost all of it. I say enjoy eating now, bc it will all melt off once baby comes!

Funny because when we were pregnant together when you had Anthony, I always compared my belly pics to yours because I thought we looked really similar!!!

Hey, it's that time of year I guess -- which is a bonus for us. And by the time it's spring and warm ... we'll have big ol' bumps and be able to wear cute clothes to show them off in.

Re: Spinoff.. Who is GAINING in the first tri?
As of the beginning of the week when I hit the 12 week mark, I'm up about 7 lbs. I have not been eating well at all (damn cravings) and I've never been an exerciser. I really need to get it together. Starting to worry that I'm going to gain a ton of weight this pregnancy!

Re: Spinoff.. Who is GAINING in the first tri?
Me!
When I went in for my physical right before my ET I was 104. When I went to the Dr at 9w I was 110!!!!! I know some of it is bloat, and some of it is bc I was wearing clothes, but some of it I am sure is from wanting everything carbs!!!!

Re: Spinoff.. Who is GAINING in the first tri?
Crashing. I gained at almost every visit. Not a lot, but i gained. I also had a lot of swelling from early on so i am sure a lot was water. I carried crazy small but seemed to gain lot on the scale. Yet I wasn't eating more than normal. Just so you know, I lost it all within a week of delivery. So don't freak out too much about the number on the scale. Sometimes your body is just wonky.

Re: Spinoff.. Who is GAINING in the first tri?
I'm def glad to see that from some of the BTDT people that it melts off quickly after.. but really.. after all we've been through I wouldn't care if I gained 5,000lbs!! I guess I would just wanna know that other people were gaining 5,000lbs too and it wasn't just me
I might 'cautiously' (I repeat.. cautiously...) go through my bag of maternity clothes soon to see what I have/need.

Re: Spinoff.. Who is GAINING in the first tri?
Me Me Me!!! I've gained 3lbs already. I was very hungry for a couple of weeks. I just wanted to eat. It has leveled off though. It doesn't help that I started out 12 lbs heavier this time vs last time, SAHMommyhood has made me fat. With DS I gained a total of 24lbs and lost 16lbs by 6 days later and lost the other 8 within 2 months. I'm afraid to gain bc I doubt I'll be that lucky again.
