Gradual daily weight gain: normal?

Question

Currently 5 weeks pregnant with first baby. 
Is it normal to see the numbers move up every day? I still work out a few times a week, but according to my scale I’ve gained 2 pounds in one week already. I try to right, don’t really eat too much sweets and junk to begin with, but man! If this keeps up, I’ll gain 90 pounds for by the time I’m in labor!

Answer

Everyone is different. You would have to ask your doctor what is right for you. My doc wants 0 weight gain in the first trimester, the baby only weighs a couple oz. but for normal BMI the recommend only a 25-30lb weight gain or you increase the risk of developing GD and PE. That being said some people do gain weight in the beginning but it slows down, like the rest of pregnancy everyone is different.

Answer

I think I only gain 5lb for the first 12 weeks. I also lost 2lb the first weeks. I’ve gain 16lb so far, I’m 27 weeks. My aunt gained 60+ pounds with her first child. Went from a size 00 to a size 12 after giving birth lol
I was also a size 00 before getting pregnant. Hoping to be a size 2-3 after delivering 🙈 
Doctor told me that I only needed to increase my caloric intake by 300. Baby doesn’t need much lol good luck!!!
