    I am 4 months and have gained 15 lbs. Dr gave me a friendly kick in the *kitten*. So he wrote me a prescription for a free gym membership, and wants me to get back to eating properly. Looking for more pregnant friends to lean on.

    This is my first... and I have to admit I am terrified! Thanks for listening. <3

    Week 14: 12/14: 139.2 (-0.6, -0.4) I was higher the day before and the day after though so I think this might be an artificial low. Only 4 more days until NO MATTER which definition is used, I will be in my second trimester.

    Well I've gained 19lbs and I'm 17w4d so as of this morning I'm back to counting and logging my calories again. Trying to get ahead of this weight gain before it gets out of control.

    I'm 24 weeks and have gained about 17 pounds. I personally am fine with the weight I've gained, but each time I get on the scale at the doctors office, I cringe because its going up and up. My doctor even showed me a graph of "this is where you are and this is where you should be". I'm like yes I know I'm gaining a bit too fast, the first trimester I just ate carbs, it was the only thing I could keep down and so yes it shows now. But putting stress on a pregnant mom is not cool IMO. If I gain a little too much, then I just have to work harder later. I understand where they are coming from, but I wish they wouldn't push the issue so much.

    I know it's typical to gain now but my food choices have not been the best with the holidays!! Hoping to steer myself towards better choices and not give into every craving!

    Last pregnancy I gained nearly 30 pounds by 24 weeks!!! My OB was thankfully cool about it though she suggested that I didn't need quite so many calories. I had been eating 1900-2000 total calories/day and thought that's probably great for many pregnant women it was too much for me.

    I dont think you're really too off track though. If you gain a lb / week from here on out you'll still be under 35. Keep in mind many don't gain much the last few weeks..

    I've gained like 8 or 9 pounds, I'm 13 weeks. I was already on a steep upward climb after suffering a miscarriage in late August. My hormones were crazy and i was stressed and upset.

    I was able to eat through my morning sickness this pregnancy. I lost weight during my first pregnancy and i was trying to be more proactive about eating whatever didn't sound like poison because i wanted to do everything right this time so that if i miscarry again...i cant blame myself. But unfortunately the foods that didn't make me gag were all pretty fattening (i had biscuits and gravy almost everyday). haha.

    I know how to lose weight though, me and baby are going to be working out this time next year and i will get fit and back to a healthy weight for me with baby on my back.

    Wow, big jump this week! I feel like baby had a little growth spurt! Hopefully it will slow back down to 1 lb/week. Averaging 1700-1800 total cals/day so I don't think I'm overeating? Started working out again this week.
