Me too! But I can't eat very much or I feel stuffed. So I basically have to eat every 2 hours.

Don't worry! It's still being used :)

Almost there @spunkychelsea Sending you baby vibes :)

I took it during my first trimester and it helped but didn't totally get rid of the nausea, my best friend is pregnant now and having the same experience. I ended up eating a lot of carbs and put on 5lbs by week 14. Thankfully my nausea pretty much went away after that!

Welcome @lesleykc :) Well I am 22 weeks and have gained 15lbs! I started with a lowish BMI of 21 so I should gain 30lbs total probably, hopefully I'll be able to not go over! I'm starting to feel big! Belly and boobs are getting pretty huge and baby girl is kicking like crazy. How is everyone else doing?

I'm currently pregnant, but I was maintaining before and drinking 2 glasses of wine a few nights a week. If I don't have a glass of wine I have dessert instead so I find the calories even out. However I am careful to not have more than two glasses because I end up overeating afterwards or the next day and it messes with my…

It's my first pregnancy so I don't know if will work yet but I've been using bio oil and Aveno moisturizer

@EmmaDetermined Thank you!! I indulged this Easter as well. Hope you have a lovely holiday.

20 weeks today! Halfway there. Had a scare with some spotting this week, baby is fine, it definitely put my worry about gaining weight in perspective! Took the week of off exercising just to be safe, excited to get back to it on Monday. Age: 29 Height: 5'6" Pre-pregnancy Weight: 134.5 lbs Goal to Gain:25-30 lbs Due: August…

I'm 5'6'', I'm currently pregnant but prior to pregnancy I maintained on 1700 - 1800 a day without adding extra calories for exercise. I cycled or walked for 90 minutes daily and weight trained three times a week.

I've been starving for a while now! I find it is mostly during the day time, I'm also 19 weeks. I have to have like 3 snacks during the day, pre-pregnancy I wasn't a snacker at all.

I've noticed a couple big jumps the past few weeks! My "official" weigh in is Saturday but I think I'm up 12 pounds at 19 weeks. However it is all in my belly! It is huge!

Thanks for posting! I'm a first time mom and also curious.

Had my anatomy scan today, it's a girl!!

Welcome Sarah & Cassie! Emma - I think it's great you made it this far and you're just starting to gain! I'll admit, even though I started at a normal BMI, I'm pretty jealous of you ladies who have made it to 20 weeks without gaining any weight! My doctor told me they have changed the guidelines in Canada and even women…

I've been eating what is technically "maintenance" according to MFP, which is 2000 a day including exercise calories. The thing is I actually maintain at more like 1700. I'm 18 weeks and have gained 10lbs. I think it's different for everyone. I started at a healthy BMI of 21.5 so I should probably gain around 30 lbs total.

@darkmiko2014 so cute! Thanks for sharing. I have my anatomy scan on Tuesday, I can't wait to find out what I'm having.

I don't think cutting calories to lose in the first trimester is a good idea. I had a huge jump one week and was a bit ahead of schedule. I just kept my calories slightly above maintenance and worked out 4 days a week. I've been able to slow my weight gain down to 1/2 a pound a week.

Yeah, I think it was a mixture of dropping intense workouts (long distance cycling and heavy weight lifting) and increasing my calories and carbs too soon. I was also maybe a little too lack and started eating dessert every night to replace my usual glass of red wine, and eating pizza more than once a week. This week I…

I went from working out at and eating 1600 calories a day to working out 3x a week and eating 2000 calories and I found I gained weight really quickly - 10lbs by 16 weeks. I've since dropped my calories to 1800 to try and slow the weight gain and will up it again if I don't gain enough

I basically ate whatever seemed appealing in the first trimester, which changed every minute. Now that I'm in the second trimester and my morning sickness is over I'm gaining weight and focusing more on pre-logging and meeting my macros.

Thank you!! I appreciate hearing that. Hopefully it levels out over the next week or two.

I'm 4 months pregnant! Feel free to add me and check out this group http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/1903-fit-fabulous-pregnant

I told my boss yesterday (I just started the job so I was terrified, but she was really happy for me). She goes "Oh, when are you going to tell everyone else? I think you should do it before you start to show". I guess I've been hiding it pretty well under my loose dresses cause I am definitely already showing!
