I could barely eat at all during my first 4 months... there was about a 1 hour window each night around 8pm when I was not nauseous and I would eat and eat until around 9 when I had to stop and felt nauseous again. So I only gained about 10-15 pounds the entire first 6 months. But I definitely made up for it when that third trimester hit....

I had little to no appetite during my 1st trimester and didn't gain any weight. I also had so many food aversions that it was difficult to find any foods that were somewhat appealing.

I gained ~10lbs in the first trimester for both pregnancies! And this was despite all the food aversion and puking. But then again, I'm the type who gains 3-5lbs in water weight every month just from PMS only to lose it all when my period ends, so I think a lot of it was water weight...and my boobs. My boobs immediately went up 2 cups sizes as soon as I got pregnant. At the end, I had gained about 50lbs with Claire, and it looks like I'm on the same track with BebeDeux. I'm not too worried, because I lose all the weight quickly without trying with the first, and my doctor tells me I'm perfectly healthy in every other way.

I lost five pounds in the first trimester--I had a lot of food aversions and ate mostly fruits and veggies.

i gained 4 pounds during the first trimester. i think it's because i'm carrying 2 because i don't feel like i was eating much because i had way too many dates with the toilet.

@geekinheels - i wish my boobs went up 2 cups! haha.

I barely gained any weight in my first trimester because I was just nauseous and vomiting ALL of the time. I think in the end it was like 2 lbs.

I have no clue how much I'll gain since the start - we don't have a scale in our house. I know how much I weighed at my last doctors appt (in late June) so I'll go with that weight as my start and just see what the ob weighs me at next week.

I only gained a couple pounds by week 13, but more than made up for it by gaining 39 pounds before delivery at 27 weeks.

I gained about 12 pounds during my first trimester. Although I was nauseous, I craved a lot of meat and sour patch kids.

I gained around 6-7 lbs. Part of it was due to craving bad foods though!

y'all are all saying 4-6 lbs like it is a lot? I thought that was pretty good, haha. @e11iebear: oh my, I have loved the sour patch kids this pregnancy too.
I gained 6 during my 1st tri. I'm 22 wks now & am up 13-ish lbs total, I think. I'm eating about how I did before I was pregnant - not amazingly, but not bad, either & I figure my body'll do what it needs to do to get the baby here. As long as my dr is ok with whatever I gain, I'll be fine with it too.

none, I lost and gained back the same five.

I am only 7 weeks and I have gained 7lbs.... I have no idea why, I barely get to eat anything

I have been so sick that I lost 5 pounds in my first trimester.

I didn't gain any until week 14. I just wasn't any more hungry than normal.

I think I gained about 5lb or less during the 1st tri

I think around 10 with pregnancy #1 and nothing so far with pregnancy #2.

I'm 8 weeks and I've lost two pounds and then gained them back. I'm hoping not to gain any more before 12 weeks. Although with all the bloat I'm definitely starting to look puffy.
