Almost 7 weeks pregnant bloating and weight gain?

Hi my name is Marissa and i am about to be 7 weeks pregnant I am soooo bloated and i let myself go crazy with carbs the first few weeks and I gained like 8 friggin pounds.  I gain and lose weight really easy I know by just eating healthy it should naturally come off but is there any good pregnancy work outs I can do to really get in shape? My stomach feels so weird all tight and twinges all the time breaking out with acne?.. I guess this comes with pregnancy?

It's so normal to get bloated in the first trimester, I felt the same way. There are prenatal workouts you can do, I was pretty athletic before I got pregnant working out 5 days a week I has lost 85 pounds over a few years and once I got pregnant I didn't know what to do. My midwife said it's safe to do, but if you start cramping or spotting than take it easy.... So I just walk and have found a prenatal workout to do. It does make me feel much better! Ya, had breakouts too... Oh the joys of being pregnant! But in the end it's all worth it :)
