    How much weight have you gained so far?

    I weighed myself yesterday and i have put on 1lb so far, really surprised its not more because im constantly hungry at the moment, no matter what i eat its not filling me up.

    I have just had 4 slices of toast :blush: and im still really hungry! dont want to eat anymore tho coz i dont want to put loads of weight on.

    im going to see if there is a chart or info on the net about how much you should put on each trimester, if i find anything, i will post it in here.

    • If you are normal weight before pregnancy:
      Gain 25 to 35 pounds during pregnancy.
    • If you are overweight before pregnancy:
      Gain 15 to 25 pounds during pregnancy.
    • If you are underweight before pregnancy:
      Gain 28 to 40 pounds during pregnancy (depending on your pre-pregnancy weight).
    • If you have a multiple pregnancy (twins, triplets or more): See your health care provider. You will need to gain more weight during pregnancy depending on the number of babies you are carrying.
    thats all i could find really, will keep looking,

    Weight Gain by Trimester

    Pounds Per Trimester

    During the first trimester(first 12 weeks) of pregnancy, your required weight gain is small- usually 3 to 6 pounds.
    In contrast, during the last two trimesters, you should gain between 6-12 pounds a week (or 1/2 to a pound per week).

    WEIGHT GAIN DURING PREGNANCY
    1st trimester 3-6 pounds
    2nd trimester 6-12 pounds
    3rd trimester 6-12 pounds

    yay! i only have a week to go of the first tri and i have only gained 1lb :happydance:

    from the info tho, i can only gain up to 25lbs instead of 35lbs coz i was overweight to start with.

    Really going to try to stick to that coz i want to be able to lose lots of weight after.

    The baby must be taking all my food at the mo then, coz for the amount im eating there is no way i could of only put on 1lb
