Re: Did anyone NOT gain for the first tri?

I didn't gain anything until about week 14. It's been about a pound a week since then and I'm almost 21 weeks. From what I understand, it's normal not to gain the first tri...

Re: Did anyone NOT gain for the first tri?

I didn't gain anything. I thought I had gained some last week, but it was just from overeating during a wedding weekend. I'm now back to my original weight.

Re: Did anyone NOT gain for the first tri?

I actually lost, not a lot - 3 pounds, and trust me, I can spare the 3 pounds . I think it was b/c I had so many food aversions and was vomiting.

Re: Did anyone NOT gain for the first tri?

I did not gain until 16 weeks, although I felt bloated & my clothes were tight.

Re: Did anyone NOT gain for the first tri?

I actually lost 7 lbs because of my morning sickness but started to gain steadily around 15 weeks...

Re: Did anyone NOT gain for the first tri?

With my son I gained like 4-5lbs in my first trimester - everywhere but my belly though!!

I was down a couple lbs in the first trimester. This pregnancy I didn't gain any weight until my like 17-19 weeks or so and then it was like only 2-3lbs. I was even starting to show - no clue what was going on. I wasn't sick either (I know most people who were sick alot lose weight). I asked the dr if something was wrong? But like I thought it eventually catches up. Now I am about 31 weeks and getting close to the 20lb mark. Still not bad and at least it is all belly this time!! Totally different than last time!

I think I started gaining at 13 or 14 weeks...and then it went fast, I'm up 14lbs now at almost 25 weeks. I weighed 125 before.

Re: Did anyone NOT gain for the first tri?

I didn't start gaining anything until I was about 18 weeks or so - I haven't gained much overall though so not sure if that matters.

Re: Did anyone NOT gain for the first tri?

I didn't gain because of MS. I gained weight when I was on bedrest in the hospital for a month. I think i only gained about 5 lbs. Gave birth on my 34th week. DD weighed only 3lbs but no major problem when she was born.

Re: Did anyone NOT gain for the first tri?

I lost about 8 pounds in the first tri. I had plenty to spare though. I know that is on the horizon of changing...I think by the next appointment I will be up some.

Re: Did anyone NOT gain for the first tri?

I didn't really gain anything, I went up 3 lbs and then weighed myself a few days later and was back down to original weight. i am bigger though - can't close my zipper/button, using belly sleeve for clothes that aren't elastic band.

we'll see at the next appt.

I didn't gain any weight in my first trimester. I didn't have any morning sickness either. At my last appt (18w5d) I was only up 3 pounds altogether.
