When did you really start gaining weight?

Question

I am 1 week in to being in the 2nd trimester. I have only gained 4 pounds since I found out I was pregnant. I am naturally thicker so my doctor told me to watch how much I gain. She said I should really only be gaining 20-25 pounds or so. I am just curious when others gained weight because I didn’t find it that hard in the first trimester to not gain more than 4 pounds, but I heard once the 3rd trimester comes you really pack on the pounds.

Answer

I gained about 4 pounds in my first trimester and about recently my weight gain jumped to 11 pounds. I’m 25 weeks and started out at around 126 pounds. Everyone is different though so I wouldn’t worry about it so long as you eat healthy and stay active.
