Losing Weight? When does the gaining start?

Question

I'm not skinny to begin with, but I am slowly losing a pound or two a day. I'm definitely eating better, but I guess still eating less because of the nausea. When should we start adding the 300 extra calories and putting on weight? Is it ok that I'm not eating extra calories right now?

Answer

You really don't need extra calories till closer to the 3rd trimester.

I've read 
1-4lbs total in a 1st trimester 
1/2 a week (250 calories a day more) for 2nd trimester 
1 lb a week for 3rd (500 calories)

Answer

My doctor said to start eating 300 extra calories a day starting at 8 weeks... She said you should gain about a pound a month until 30 weeks then it's about a pound per week!

Answer

I have been so sick I have lost about 15 lbs. I am a little fluffy to begin with, but it is a little worrisome. This is my first baby so I have no idea what is right and what isn't! Good luck!

Answer

My doctor saysyou can go really most of the pregnancy without gaining any weight
