weight gain?

So i had both my high risk appt and my reg OB appt yesterday...i was 12 weeks exactly and both scales said the same...i've gained 2lbs. I know thats well within normal...but its weird because I honestly thought i would have gained more...i eat all the time and none of my pants fit comfortably anymore...some dont even fit at all!! How can it be that i've only gained 2lbs when my body is so different?! Anyone experience this phinominan??

p.s. now that i wrote this watch me gain like 10lbs before my next visit!!

Yeah lol with my first I gained gained gained bc I never had morning sickness. But I just started working in November plus this one caused me morning sickness the first trimester so I wasnt eating like I used to. I'm hoping to start gaining back soo. But I do have my little pouch and saw the baby in ultrasound yesterday! Defintatly Preggo! :)

I lost 5lbs the first 2 months and have now gained 4... I had to give up my jeans after I gained 2lbs and go for maternity pants. My hips had spread 4inches. It's more about displacement than weight gain I what I was told.
