Only 7 weeks n gaining weight

Omg my pants are tight, why? Im bloated and shouldn't look like im pregnant this early? Im not eating like crazy at all, thought that gain came later. My face is breaking out too n nothing i can use while pregnant, or is there ok acne treatment? Im not really throwing up at all n thought i would  be but burping n weird taste in my mouth tho.  Worried that if im not sick like with my first child its not  sticking.  Trying not to worry..

I'm on the 7th week too and feel the same, this is my third baby and already showing a little but happy as I can be I never feel anything with my other 2 pregnancies, I know I was pregnant just because I saw my tummy getting big but this 3rd is making me feel all I did not feel on the others, bloating is the most common now for me can not eat much solid food at all and what is working  for me are smoothies with oatmeal, apple, almonds, pecans and honey for breakfast, salads  first followed by a piece of meat or poultry (if there is room) in the afternoon and cereal at night, during the day I eat cutties, pears, carrots and feel light to continue with my day. And don't forget your 64oz of water, get one of those water bottles so you know how much are you drinking.

Don't stress... Stress is bad for you and baby. Your weight gain is bloat or gas. It's completely normal, unfortunately. As far as being sick-be so happy. With my 1st- I wasn't sick at all. 2nd- sick in the afternoon until bed. 3rd-was the worst. I was sick  24/7. I was always nauseous, couldn't eat. Try to relax.

It's bloat. Happened to me too at that time. Now I'm 23 weeks and feeling like a chunky monkey. Which is for sure weight gain because you don't get bloat in your ***. Glycolic acid is safe during pregnancy and can help with acne. I never threw up once (but would jave liked to) and this does seem to be sticking. Be well mama! Sounds like everything is pretty normal.
