Uh, I do. I'm nauseous or starving all day long. I do work out so think I technically can take in more than 200 but I'm sure I eat more like 500-700 extra calories a day even though I'm still in the first tri!

I think I consumed at least an extra 1000 calories.
Gained 50+ with my first.
almost 50 with my 2nd.
My bad.

@chopsuey: I might be closer to 1000. I now have a nightly ice cream instead of a nightly wine. Oops.

Who knows, I see no use in counting For the record though, I've only gained 15ish so far.

@winniebee: HAHA an extra 200 is like.. half a bagel! Eating helped with my nausea so I ate nonstop

@chopsuey: or like an apple and a yogurt? those are just 2 extra things that i consume between the hours of 9-11 am. nevermind the rest of the day!

Ummm yes. I don't know how people can do just 200 extra.
I am pretty sure it's an extra 500-1000 calories. No working out, but i've been up until 2am lately working, so that's my excuse.

No GD = 1800-2000 cals a day but I never feel like eating and I still gag a lot even though I'm in the third tri
When I diet I usually eat 1500 though so it's extra compared to that.

Probably, but not because I was hungry a lot or ate often. Because when I did eat, it was usually fast food shit. I crave cheeseburgers like crazy when I am KU. and all the Taco Bell in the world.

I have no idea! I cant imagine keeping track while pregnant! I just ate what I could stomach, when I could stomach it!

I don't technically know, but guaranteed I do! I eat all day long!!

Let's just say....I'm not counting. Haha. I'm in the first tri, too, and I feel like crap if I'm not eating carbs and/or protein every two hours. Oopsies!

I'm still pregnant... And Definitely getting more than 200 calories. I didn't have much of a sweet tooth prepregnancy, but these days, it's like I can't get enough! Just the other day, I had a few brownies, 2 slices of cake, a cupcake, Popsicle, and an ice cream sandwich. That was probably equivalent to 2000 calories! (I'm carrying twins... So that's my go-to defense)

I must be because I am certainly gaining weight faster with this pregnancy than I did with DS!

I don't count calories but I'm sure I do since I eat more than my 6'3 husband who lifts weight and does Insanity....

Uh... yea!! Carbs was the only thing that sounded appetizing to me the first trimester (pizza, pasta, noodles, rice, etc.) and since I was afriad of morning sickness, I binge ate those carbs like it was my job!
wonderful grape / 20453 posts
Yup. I gained 60 pounds, and not all of that was baby, LOL! I've never had such a ravenous appetite like when I was pregnant.

WAY more, but my MW's guidance was an extra 500 (not 200)... Oh, and I only gained 29 pounds and lost it all really quickly, so (1) I mostly ate good, whole foods, and (2) my baby *needed* it.
