Anyone tracking weight gain?

I started tracking mine after finding out I was pregnant, but I've barely gained a half-pound. Just wondering if anyone else is tracking their weight and if so, what the gain/loss is?

btw, I'm 10w5d today ;)

I am 12wks5days and I finally gained a pound last week.  (Not that I probably needed to, but it was nice to stop losing).  From the time that I found out I was pregnant to my first Dr. visit (4-6wks) I lost 3 lbs, then another 4 by my 10wk visit.  Now though, food is actually starting to taste good again, and I'm feeling hungry for the first time in 2 months.  This is my first pregnancy that lasted past the 1st trimester, so it's the first time I've experienced this whole "food tastes really good" thing... we'll see how well i do keeping weight on track with this newfound sensation of yumminess...

I am 11 weeks and haven't gained any weight, I've fluxuated a few lbs but always end up back at what I was, this is my first pregnancy so I'm hoping I don't gain too much weight. I look a little fatter though if you ask me, I don't know if it's the baby, or fat? I haven't been able to eat as big of portions since I got preggo for some reason, not really because of nausia, I just get full qiucker, does anyone else have this problem?

I am 10 Weeks and 1 day and I have gained about a 1/2 a pound. I feel like I've gained 10 with all the bloating though! Not really showing yet but I am starting to notice my belly getting a little rounder!

I've gained 3 pounds already and I'm only 8 weeks! With my 1st child I think I gained maybe 3 or 4 lbs during the entire first trimester. I hope this doesn't mean I will have a big baby! LOL

I have lost a total of about 12 pounds since my first visit when i found out i was pregnant.  had 3rd drs appt yesterday and they told me that i gained a pound.   i was worried because i kept losing weight.  they told me not to worry because many mothers lost weight in their first trimester, but eventually gain it all back plus about 10-15 pounds more by delivery.  oh yeah, i am 10 weeks exactly today.  :-)

With tan I gained 80 lbs (all from 3 months +) and didn't loose to much of it until ky came along. With ky I lost about 30 lbs I thought that was great and I gained it back in baby and it was all gone by two days after she was born. With this one I gained 20 lbs due to fertility meds and I have been staying pretty steady with it but when you have a few pounds on ya before hands you start to show pretty early. So I am hoping that it stays pretty normal as if you watch your calorie intake while pregnant you can watch what you gain. I learned that with my second one from my ob.

I'm 11w3d and I have been weighing myself and I have not gained or lost. Maybe it goes up one and then it goes back down. I think at the beginning I was gaining because of the water retention, but now I think it's the babies (5 babies to be exact)!!!!

I starting tracking my weight the day I found out I was pregnant and I fluctuate between 3-4 pounds gained.  Some days I weigh myself and I am up 4 pounds, but like four days later I have lost 2 or 3, so not significant weight gain yet.  I am 11 weeks today!

I've lost about 5 pounds, but it slightly fluctuates still...been nauseated a lot, so eating is hard, but I usually keep the food healthy!  :) I'm just 8 weeks...

I've also put on a ton of weight with all of the fertility drugs not to mention recovering from Guillain Barre syndrome (following a miscarriage) which made/makes exercise difficult/exhausting.  So because there's not much I can do about it at this point, I'm just eating healthy foods.  The problem for me is I'm sooo hungry!  I limit my snacking to fruits & veg.

I lost 87 pounds last year  -- was thin all my life, then of course PCOS decided to add major weight to my body -- NOT FUN.  Seeing how weight gain affected fertility, I went to a nutritionist and lost it all.  Ever since I started with IVF, the weight has been creeping up.  DR says that it is all water retention from all the IVF injections.  12 pounds of water?  HMMMM

I guess I should face the music that I am going to be a beast during this pregnancy lol - I DONT CARE THOUGH - LOVING EVERY MINUTE OF IT.  So log me down in the books as 12 pounds please lol

Oh and I am only 8 weeks lol

I've been tracking my weight but haven't really gained anything yet. I started at 134 and in the first week I lost 4 lbs because of such bad nausea. Since six weeks I've fluctuated between 131-133ish.
I'm definitely showing, but if people don't know I'm pregnant, they don't notice the little belly I have, I guess because it looks "normal" on many women? I have always had a pretty flat stomach, so for me and the people who know me well and see me each day, it's noticeable, but when I tell people who didn't know, they ask how far along I am--I tell them 10 weeks and they look at me and usually say something like, "You're so tiny and you can't even tell a thing yet!"
Heh, I can sure tell!!! Lol.

I think I've mentioned before, that I THINK I'm showing ... LOL!  I've let myself go in the last few years, so my tummy was a little flabbier than I'd have like, so it's hard to know what's fat and what's baby!!!!!
