7weeks 4days, and up about 2 lbs, from 115 to 117. It feels like it's all in my boobs and belly, mostly fluid gain, I'm sure.

Hi everyone! I am 13w1d today. I actually dropped about 7lbs from the time i found out i was pregnant until now. I attribute it mostly to the change in diet and lack of alcohol. I have definitely grown in inches though. Despite being a a lower weight than i have been in years, my pants have a lovely little belly protruding over the top. Husband says when i was heavier i didn't have a waist like i do now and I am gonna run with that! Exercise is next to impossible for me right now. The fatigue is KILLING me. So much worse than any other symptom at this point. But I have sworn to myself to do the best I can and keep up with MFP throughout the pregnancy to stay in the habit of tracking. So glad i found this group too because reading that other ladies are going through similar stuff is unbelievably helpful!

10 weeks yesterday and have lost 3.5 pounds so far. Started at 140.8 which was higher than I wanted to be so hoping for 25-30 pound gain. Last pregnancy I started at 146 and gained 36 pounds and just felt fat the entire time. I was in the middle of dieting and losing weight when I got pregnant again. Nothing else on my body has changed yet, just the weight. I try to eat at maintenance but if I go over or under I don't stress out. I'm close to finishing a 30 day squat challenge and my bum is getting a great lift, starting a 30 day plank challenge next so hopefully that helps my belly not balloon out.

7 weeks 3 days and 0 pounds gained. I'm sitting at 115 right now but I fluctuate between 114-115 daily. I eat every 2 hours and drink at least 60 ounces of water everyday which helps get rid of any extra water weight and bloating. This is my second so I'm hoping to stay at a semi normal weight gain. I gained nearly 38 pounds with my first.

welp. Got back from Vacay in Dallas yesterday and had an OB appointment today. Not the best planning lol. Weighed in at the doctor's office and I was up 5 pounds from a month ago I'm at 15ish total gain and hoping to only gain 20. Not sure if that's realistic at 18weeks now. Oh well, I'm just planning to keep with my workouts. P90x is getting to be too much so I'm switching to light weight routine and TONS of walking

But my blood pressure was pretty low 99/68 down from last month. So focusing on hydrating and being extra careful on stairs, getting out of the pick up etc. Also my blood work showed I am no longer immune to measles! My hubby kinda freaked out since school will be starting and I'll be around a whole lot of kids now. Just praying everything works out

I was thinking of starting a weekly update on here of pounds gained.
What my scale says at home is a bit different than at the doc's office...probably because of the difference in time of day, and the difference in my amount of clothing! Anyway, anyone is welcome to join me with weekly updates! It's exciting to start noticing a difference!!!

13 Weeks: 137.6 -1.4 Total


According to my doctor's scale, I am up a pound. She weighed me first at 8 weeks, then again at 13. Either way, so far, so good.

Hopped on the scale this morning to see my weight the same as my starting weight. Not really surprised as I've been sick and not eating much for the past week. So I got out the tape measure to see what's really going on. Obviously the belly is up but it seems I've lost 2cm from my thighs and 1cm from my hips! Wasn't expecting that. I was a bit worried that bubs wasn't getting enough food, but clearly it's just been taking it from my "reserves".

16w3d

For the first two months or so I didn't realize I was pregnant so I was doing a small calorie reduction and a lot more exercising. I lost eight pounds and was finally back to 135 (my starting weight for my first pregnancy). Since finding out, I've gained back about four pounds. I'm currently about six pounds lighter than I was at this same point in my first pregnancy. Last time I gained 45pounds--definitely don't want to do that again...

At 20w3d now

Since my low point during the first trimester I've gained about eight pounds. So I am back at the weight I got pregnant at. I'm still quite a few pounds lighter than I was at this time last pregnancy so I'm hopeful that I'll have a more moderate total gain this time (instead of 45!). Though I've been feeling a lot hungrier the past two or three weeks than I was during the first trimester. I have a huge deadline at work coming up next week (actually several deadlines spread over three weeks). Once all of that is over I'm going to focus on keep my weight gain to 0.75 to 1 pound a week.

I keep gaining and losing the same 2 pounds, its making me crazy. I really need to start eating healthier food though before I just say screw it and live off of buttered toast LOL. Don't want to blow up like my first pregnancy, I tend to gain 3-4 pounds a week throughout my second trimester

This is my second pregnancy, 14 weeks along. Since my teenage i was afraid ill be a huge giant balloon, so I was very cautious during my first pregnancy and I did pretty well, I gained 9 kg and after 4 months of delivery I was back to my pre pregnancy weight (shy of 1 kg to be honest) I think that was all thanks BF. I never did diet or workout, coz recovery from c section and postpartum depression was too hard on me.

Now this pregnancy I continued to nurse my dd till 13 weeks, I tried it to be baby led but she wasnt ready yet, so I had to stop for daytime at 11 weeks one day and then at 13 weeks for night feeds. It was very heartbreakingfor both us, infact she is still finding it very hard at times, as she used to sleep while nursing.

I started this pregnancy, with 1kg loss, I was very happy and then I started to gain and now I am 2kgs up, last kg was gained in last 10 days. I think it may be coz of stopping BF, but I never wanted so quick weight gain. My aim is go for that 9 kg gain, which very ideal for me last time but this time it seems very hard. Anyways I have to put some effort now.

Weighed in three pounds heavier today than I did last week.....I know it is water as I track everything but it still irks me. In fact, it was three pounds since YESTERDAY (I weighed in yesterday in the am too)! I am not eating a ton of sodium but I am swelling up pretty good by the end of the day (pitted edema)....ugh! I just have to keep telling myself, it is water....you are doing ok! My BP is still ok but I fully expect to get preeclampsia again (I have had it with every pregnancy). So as of today I am up either 10 pounds or 13 and I am 21 weeks today. I want to gain under 20 so it's not looking so great for that goal as of now

Hit my second trimester this weekend and weighed in this morning. I was utterly shocked that I hadn't gained anything. Two weeks ago, my doctor made me stop running after a scary bleed, so I figured it would catch up with me. Well, I can resume exercising now ... and it's time to gain a little weight, so here I go :P I upped my calories and just in time because I am STARVING today.

I've been really bad with tracking calories the last week and a half and I've gained 2 pounds since last week. Still down 2 pounds at 16 weeks but definitely have to get back on track.

Growth spurt in the belly though, saw a bunch of family who didn't know I was pregnant and they all brought it up. So I'm definitely showing enough for people who know me to guess I'm pregnant, that's exciting! With the right clothes I'll have strangers congratulating me soon.

12 weeks tomorrow and up 2.5 pounds. Starting weight 115ish and now 117.5 is this a good pace?
