For those who have been pregnant or are pregnant---how much weight did you gain the first 5 months?? My first 2 months I went from 126 to 120 lbs, I lost 6 pds because I had morning sickness and didnt feel like eating anything. But my last appt I gained 5 lbs in less than a month!! I have gained 6 pounds since I lost the weight the first 2 months. Did anyone else have this problem??

I dont remember with my son exactly, but I went in at like 203 and then was sick for 4 months (or felt like it anyway) and went to like 189 then went back up to 203 plus 20. With this baby, I was 234...Lost 10 by 20w and then at 30w gained 4 of that back. Hope this helps!

I started off at 200 lbs. And im 6 weeks pregnant now and im at 203 lbs now. I havent had no sickness yet....And I eat all the time now...But the fuuny thing is everyone says you'll gain about 25-35 lbs total during pregnancy. I went to order my cap and gown for my graduation today (i graduate in june) and im due in july so I told the lady that I would be big when I graduate so she changed my weight on the paper to 250 lbs!!! Im like damn I hope I dont get that big....Lol
