Weight gain.....

[roke]

When do you usually start to gain weight?  I am just over 6 weeks and haven't noticed anything yet.  My pants still seem to fit the same and my boobs are definitely not bigger.  I know some people who have gained like 12 pounds in their first trimester!  When did you first start to gain weight?  This is my first pregnancy and I have my first u/s on 12/12!!!!

I started gaining my weight around 17 weeks. And i have been gainging it non stop. LOL. But i fit into my "fat pants" as i call them till i was about 26 weeks and then had to change into the mommy pants (as my hubby calls them). But my doctor said that its fine with the weight that i am gaining. I have gained at least 40 pounds since june (thats alot), but they said its fine.

Thanks ladies..... I definitely am not looking forward to gaining weight... but I do know it's for a good cause.  I sure hope I can stay in my normal clothes for a few more months!!!

As for your clothing, it should pretty much all fit until around 11 - 13 weeks. Especially because this is your first pregnancy. So don't worry about the whole clothing issue quite yet, and some people boobs don't begin to hurt until the 2nd trimester, but keep in mind you are only 6 weeks, so symptoms should begin to show soon enough.
And the weight gain thing, I am 12 weeks with my second child and have only gained 4lbs. With my first I gained 13lbs by now. So everyone is diffrent and every pregnancy is different.
