gaining 30 and 40lbs during a pregnancy is nothing to worry about. i believe i gained 42lbs when i had my baby a few years ago and i was tiny to start off with! all of the weight came off and some more after the baby. of course it took a lot of hard work to get back to pre-pregnancy weight and everything, but i think you're doing fine. i'm not a doctor, but if it was me and i'm seven weeks along and have gained two pounds already... i wouldn't be concerned. i think our body weight fluctuates a lot. sometimes you have to think about water weight, bloatiness, extra stuff that may affect your weight. well, think of it this way... you've only gained 2 pounds in 7 weeks, that's not bad. i'm sure the weight gaining will slow down for the time being especially if you say you do watch what you eat and is aware of this weight issue. good luck and i hope you have a healthy pregnancy! :)
well i am in the same situation as you..i am only 6 weeks and i already gain 4 pounds wish is driving me crazy cause i dont want to gain more then 30..which is what the doc recomemded..but eventhow i dont what too have have to eat and do it for my baby ..so i think two pounds in 7 weeks is just fine.. good luck and HH9M
I don't think its too much. I'm losing weight right now because I don't feel so hot, but I know I'll pack it back on later.
I will be 9 weeks on thursday. and I gained 3 and a half pounds because I was constipated and hungry all the time the first 7 weeks. but in the last week and a half I have lost weight because I am so nauseaus and actually have had food aversion and my ibs is being mean to me.. So it can fluctuate and every one is different. don't stress.. that is what everyone keeps telling me anyway lol... it is hard though...
