Weight!

Anyone else get a talking to about their weight? at my appt today the dr was asking me everything I eat every day since I gained 5 pounds last month. I told her for breakfast every day I have 2 hardboiled eggs and a piece of toast and she said maybe I should try just one egg and half a piece of toast? ummm im sorry lady but im pregnant and one egg and half a piece of toast is not gonna hold me over till lunch time! im so frustrated!

well i seem to have an odd weight gain pattern with pregnancy. i gain 10 lbs during the first trimester, then steady after that. it was like that with my son, and also with baby girl now :)

yeah im at a little over 20 pounds total...and 12 of that was in my first trimester before I realized that I had an underactive thyroid so im pretty sure that had a lot to do with it. and I quit smoking the day I found out I was pregnant so I think that and weight gain also go hand in hand!

I haven't gained any weight and my doctor told me that I need to eat at least every 3 hours

I've gained in spurts the whole time...I gained almost nothing in the first trimester but my first month in second trimester I gained 7 lbs. My dr. said it was fine. Do your best to eat healthy and don't worry about it. You may not gain at all your next appt.
