Hi,
I am  13 weeks and i've lost 9lbs.

I'm 13wks 4 dys and I've gained 13 lbs!  One for each week!  I was only 107 lbs when I conceived, so maybe I needed to fatten up a bit (I hope)!

11 weeks, haven't gained a pound.
Is everyone starting to show already?  Some of my pants are starting to feel a bit tight in the waist line, but otherwise you can't see a baby bump yet.  I was thinking that with Twins I would probably start gaining and showing early, but I guess that's all still in the future.

I'm 15 weeks and have gained 4-5 pounds.  I was hoping not to gain any the first trimester but the pounds snuck in anyway!

by Rach1717, Apr 12, 2008 03:49PM
I'm 13 weeks 3 days and I'm definitely starting to show, I've gained 8lbs so far. For a few weeks I just looked a little chubby around the middle but this week my bump has started to take shape.

by kazwel, Apr 12, 2008 10:14PM
I am a little on the heavier side,  and my fat definitly has a more roundness to it  LOL

I'm 14w5d and I've lost about 30lbs.
Dunno why but the doc said I was fine.

He said he can't tell me how much I've gained by baby because I prolly lost in my body whatI gained in my tummy.

So yeah.
Can't really tell you what I've gained from baby.

5-7lbs so far in 4 1/2mo.

by Crystal125, Apr 13, 2008 01:40AM
Well I'm 15 weeks now and at my last appt. a week ago I had gained 14lbs, but I only weighed 103 at my first appt, so I guess I needed those. Doctor was actually very upset with me that I weighed that being 5'10 lol.. I never thought it was underweight

I'm 11w4 and I think I've gained between 7-10 pounds.  This is my fourth pregnancy and I've never had a day of morning sickness or food sensitivity and any of my pregnancies.  I don't eat more than normal, just the occassional treat.  I just gain lots with my kids. I gained 55 pounds with my first and 38 pounds with my third.  I found I felt better when I didn't obsess about it and that is why I'm not worried.  I've lost all the weight before and I'll do it again.  Happy mommy happy baby.

hi im 13 weeks and ive gained 8lbs

by stillwaiting52, Apr 15, 2008 09:35AM
I am 13 1/2 weeks and believe I have gained 10 lbs already! It's hard to tell because I gained some from the 6 months of fertility meds but I am not sure how much, total of 13 or 14!! I am not going to worry about it though, it will come off later ;-)

by jan618, Apr 15, 2008 10:30AM
I'm 12 weeks and I have gained about 5 lbs. I hope not as much as my last baby....

by Emma22, Apr 18, 2008 03:52AM
Hi, im 14 weeks and have put on 14 lbs! I think most of the weight has gone onto my breasts.. they didn't become larger until the last few months of my last pregnancy, this time thy seem to have blown up in the first few weeks! Anyone else had that happen? Em :)

by Moenke77, Apr 18, 2008 10:07AM
I'm 15 weeks and I've lost 7 pounds.  I'm glad to see others have lost some weight too.  My jeans are starting feeling tight across my stomach now.

by Rohann, Apr 22, 2008 02:21AM
I'm on 11 weeks and nobody would even notice that I am pregnant. I haven't gain any weight yet. I hope I will lol :),

by Lexima, Apr 22, 2008 02:39PM
To: Rohann
that's exactly what I said 2 weeks ago, you can even scroll up and see.
Now I'm 13 weeks and gained like 2.5lb and I'm also starting to show, not too much, but I think people are starting to notice.  Or at least they are noticing that I gained a bit of weight.  So I started telling some of my coworkers already and friends.  
Oh and btw I'm pg w/ twins.  So it might be few more weeks or a month for you before you start showing.

by Rohann, Apr 23, 2008 03:49AM
WOw! congratulations! I did tell my friends but they won't believe me, lol :) they said I'm look skinny to be pregnant, but I don't mind, I know one day they will.

I guess we should feel lucky we're not gaining too much weight yet. I think it's more healthy.

I really wish you all the best throughout your pregnancy :)

i gained 7 lbs

by popeyesgirl06, Apr 24, 2008 07:20PM
I am 15 wks 5 days and as of last appt. two wks ago I had gained 13 pounds. I don't really have an average due  to the fact that I had only gained 1/5 pounds from the previous appt. to my last appt. I am hungry all the time and hardly underweight. I am 5'9" and weighed 160 at my first appt at 4 weeks. I have a feeling the doctor will start saying something if I keep putting on the weight the way I have.

by crk05, May 06, 2008 08:28PM
Im 18 weeks and 6 days and I have lost 2 IBS since then. although i was very,very sick so i am now almost back to my normal weight.
