Post subject: first tri weight gain I am at the end of 12 weeks and I have only gained half a pound so far. I just had my 12 week drs appt and he said that was fine but if I don't gain weight from here on out is when he will get worried. I am 5'9" and 142 1/2 lbs, i have an average/slim figure. I eat whenever I am hungry and try to hit all the food groups, I also gave up soda (I used to drink it everyday!) Anyway just wondered if anyone else is worried about the same thing.

Post subject: Don't worry too much I am in the same boat. I am 17 weeks and have only gained 2 1/2 pounds so far but baby is fine and the right size etc etc. In fact at my 12 week scan it was bigger than it's date!

Post subject: hi,
my mum was saying to me that if i want to find it easier to shift the baby weight after the birth that i shouldn't gain any weight till im at least around 3 1/2 - 4months. os this right??? i was just going to eat as i usally would, and if i gain weight, at least i'd have the perfect excuse! lol!

Post subject: weight loss Hi girls,
i would'nt worry too much. By 22 weeks i had actually lost 21lbs - this was down to severe morning sickness and a healthy change in diet. My midwife assured me the baby was fine and takes what it needs from you first and foremost. Good luck and i hope you continue to have healthy pregnancies X
