Weight gain in the first trimester

[gonewithtthewind]

I've just weighed myself and I've gained 8lbs!!! I'm only 14 weeks on Tuesday 😞 online says you should only gain around 4lbs in the first trimester 😞 I've been worried about weight gain as it is but it feels like a lot, my appetite has been massive and I can't stop eating. If I don't eat I'm sick.

I've gone from 10 and a half stone to like 11stone 3.

Is this normal? I feel I'll be huge if I've gained 8lbs in the first trimester!

Everyone is different, you shouldn't fallow what they say online. I gained 8kgs in my first trimester as I was constantly tired and felt sick if I wasn't eating. Had to wear maternity trausers from week 7 as I didn't fit into anything. Only gained 4 more kgs in second trimester and 0 in my last (while they say you should gained half a kg every week).
From the second trimester I got back my energy and my nausea dissapeared so it was much easier to keep on eye what I was eating. After 3 months giving birth I was on my pre-pregnancy weight (which was hard as breast feeding makes you extremely hungry and you basically glued to the couch).

I'm nearly 10 weeks and I've put like 5lbs on already😳 was the same as you, weighed just over 10 1/2st and I'm now 11st😩

I also have to keep eating to keep sickness away

I got weighed at my scan last week and was shocked I'd already put on 3kg. I've definitely not been as active in the heat and eating more than normal and a lot of carbs to reduce the nausea.
My first pregnancy I didn't gain anything until at least 20 weeks, so was a bit shocked! Hoping I can go for some more walks once it's cooled and eating better now I'm feeling less sick. But trying not to worry about it!

I'm the same. This heat has been horrible so I've just been sat on the sofa infront of the fan. I can't wait for it to cool down so I can go for a walk, I'm aching all over from not doing anything I think 😭😭

Last time I weighed myself at around 9 weeks I'd only put on like 3lbs. 😭😭

I had gained 10lb by 12 weeks as I was constantly hungry and if I wasn’t eating I felt sick!
For the last 3 weeks things have felt much better and my appetite has returned to normal, have actually lost 2lb but eating regular healthy food (not at all worried about this as I was overweight to start with). Hoping it’ll just be steady from now on.
With my first I did eat for two but also retained a lot of water gained 5stone. With my second I didn’t start gaining til well after half way through and then didn’t gain a lot. Both dc and I were healthy throughout so it’s made absolutely no difference.
This time I’m just attempting to eat healthily, but a bit of what I fancy just not overdo it and ignore the weight to some degree.
