weight gain - 1st pregnancy vs. 2nd pregnancy
Just wondering how you all faired with your weight gain during your 2nd pregnancy as compared to your first.
my first, i put on 40 lbs...only 6.1 of them were from DD 
i'm hoping to keep myself more in check this time around.

I gained 30lbs with DD#1 and 22lbs with DD#2. I didn't do anything differently eating-wise. With #2 you can't lay on the couch watching The Baby Story all day long though!

Re: weight gain - 1st pregnancy vs. 2nd pregnancy
I was 7lbs away from pre preggo weight when i got pg with #2.
I was the EXACT weight at delivery with both.
I gained 50lbs with #1 and 40lbs with #2.
i ate 10000x times better with #2 and still gained, i couldn't win.

Re: weight gain - 1st pregnancy vs. 2nd pregnancy
#1  I gained about 33lbs or so (gained all over and gained right away and kept a gradual gain throughout)
#2 I gained about 28lbs or so (but more all belly and took awhile to gain weight - it took 19 weeks before I gained 5lbs but yet had a belly)
Both born in the 37th week and both weighed just over 7lb's.
I ate much worse with #2 too!! Guess staying home with #1 kept me active.

Re: weight gain - 1st pregnancy vs. 2nd pregnancy
I have gained less but started out heavier I think running after DD and not having time to relax and nap and ponder (aka snack attacks) like I did with baby #1 has helped reduce the weight gain.
