Is it weird to have lost a pound with no morning sickess? Maybe a difference in clothes/less bloating or water weight?

I'm 28 weeks and have gained 40 lbs (5'8", 190 lbs). I think the main reason was that I tend to eat a lot anyway but before I was pregnant I was doing a lot of weight training which kept me pretty fit. I'm trying to slow the weight gain now, but more for vanity than anything else. My doctor wasn't worried because I'm tall and weight distributed in my hips/butt/legs. Your doctor is the best reference.0

Ixeeta, well done on not gaining anything until 21 weeks. You're target weight gain is similar to mine (less if I can help it)
Sammy, I lost a couple of pounds in those early weeks too, without any sickness. Not sure why, but not complaining!

No gain this week so still 4.5 pounds lighter than I was at the beginning. I am just bracing myself for the steady gains to set in now that baby is gaining weight faster.0 -

Freaking out a little bit as i'm up 3 lbs and still have three weeks to go until my 2nd trimester. It may just be water weight as I'm pretty bloated and constipated but I'm going to try and be more careful with my intake this week.0 -
Lisa, how often do you weigh yourself? I find my weight fluctuates a lot for the reasons you mention, so I prefer to check more often and take an average.0
-
@EmmaDetermined @lynn2064 Thank you! I weight my self every couple of days but only record one weekend weight. I was down 2lbs a few days ago so it is probably water weight, I try and drink more water and maybe take an average of the week.0
-
Lisa, I also feel bloated... and with my first I find I gained quickly but it slowed down eventually. I'm 9 weeks and gained 2 pounds. Not sure if it's water weight or not though...0
-
@fit_mama30 that makes me feel a bit better! I had a prenatal appointment today and the doctor said it might be from eating more carbs...I'm going to try and cut back, did well today!0

Unfortunately it's hard to cut carbs with nausea, at least for me... I'm doing a bit better! GL!!

HALFWAY!!!! 20 weeks Ok, technically halfway.....but since I always go almost two weeks over, I recon I am not halfway until next week. I still haven't gained any weight though, with my first I had gained 16 pounds at this stage - this time I have lost 4.5 so I count that as being over 20 pounds better off! The other day my maternity jeans were in the wash so I tried on my pre-pregnancy ones, and I had to put an elastic through the button hole to make space for the bump but there was more slack around the thighs than I remember! Little joys!

So it seems like its way too early but I'm already feeling incredibly full after every meal and don't have much of an appetite. TMI I actually threw up in my sleep this week I already have gastroparesis, a condition where my stomach doesn't empty properly and I think pregnancy is making it worse. Anyways - my weight doesn't seem to be going up much the past few weeks, so that is a nice side effect!

Almost out of the first trimester! 3.5 pounds is good... My weight in is tomorrow (I'm 12.3 weeks now) but I think I'll be around +3-4 pounds as well. Same as with my first pregnancy, where I gained 25 pounds.

Thanks @fit_mama30 That makes me feel better! I'm really hoping to keep my weight gain under 30lbs. Yay for being almost done the first trimester! Are you showing yet?0
-
Awesome work, ladies!
I'm currently 26+3, and have gained just shy of 2kg (4.4lb). I'm loosely following the gestational diabetes eating plan and counting calories to maintain my weight (doc has OKed it, as I am overweight, BMI was closer to the obese end than normal weight).
Really hoping to keep my weight gain to a minimum, so I can actually end up lighter post-birth than before I fell pregnant!0 -
Weight is starting to creep on now, but I really feel like baby is growing fast too (much stronger kicks and my SPD has suddenly set it) so I don't mind too much although a pound in a week is a bit excessive! I have some big deadlines coming up so I have spent a lot of time sitting at my desk (until 3.15 am last night!) and not exercising so much.

Well, if I wear something tight I do look pregnant (or to those who don't know me maybe I don't). But I can hide it by wearing some clothes, cardigan or hoodie for example!
What about you??0 -

@fit_mama30 I'd say I'm the same, if I wear something form fitting I look pregnant but if I wear loose clothing it isn't obvious.0
