How much weight did you put on?

[MissCKitty]

Hi all, just wondering what sort of weight gain is normal (whatever 'normal' is hey? ) during the first trimester. I have gained about 6 lbs and am 12+2 today. I am also a diabetic so I do think that has an impact on my weight gain, but was just wondering what other peoples' experiences were x

In total I put on about 4.5 stone each time. Probably lost weight in first trimester due to sickness but made up for it after that .

Came off within 9 months after ds with little effort - bit more work needed with dd but it did go.

15 wks, put on 8lb so far. I put about 3 stone on last time but stopped weighing myself by about 16 weeks. Both times I've put a disproportionate amount on in the 1st trimester because haribo, chips and crumpets with nutella appear to be the only effective way of stopping nausea.

Last time I used being pg as an excuse to overeat and, although the weight came off reasonably easily with bfing and getting loads of exercise, I'm keen to put on a lot less this time and am now being very careful with what I eat.
