Weight Gain

[Willow10]

So I was just wondering if any of you have gained any weight yet?! Or if you have a belly? I read that you dont really have to eat much more during your 1st trimester or really gain weight but starting the 2nd you should eat 300 calories per baby..so I've been eating pretty normally & am wondering where does the weight gain come from if your not taking in any extra food ( besides the actually baby but thats pretty minesule right now)?! Im not sure if I have gained weight yet if anything 1 lb or something but yeahh Im just wondering cuz I feel bigger...

I"m 10w tomorrow and have gained about 5. Its almost embarrassing b/c most women don't gain so much so early!! I find myself wishing I could lose it but trying to do this wouldn't be healthy. I even eat healthy with the ocassional sweet treat but aside from being hypothyroid, I don't know how I"ve already gained 5 lbs!

I go to the dr. in 2 weeks & im curious to see if I have gained any weight. Im pretty small framed & my pants are fitting tighter but I dont look any bigger so Im not sure. I dont want to gain a lot of weight. I am very active & eat fairly healthy so Im hoping that helps drastically!

I've actually lost 2 1/2 pounds so far (I'm 6 weeks).  I'm not sure how I've done that, since I'm eating normally, and haven't had bad morning sickness yet, but as long as I'm not losing a lot, I'm not really going to worry about it.  I am really bloated though on some days, so on those days I look like I'm pregnant!

hello. im about 10 weeks now and im deffinately bloated so im starting to look and feel a little more pregnant. by doctor just now told me i should start eating 300-500 calories more a day. but its so hard bc i barely eat 1900 a day as is!

well im just 6 wks and im bloated,which is making me look pregnant.im not sure where the wait gain comes from but this is what i think,when your pregnant your body doesnt break down food as fast as it use to.so it gets stored to fat,unless you exercise and eat healty maybe you could aviod the extra weight
