Weight gain at 8 weeks?

Aimee
I'm starting to worry....I am a big girl, 5'2" and a size 18-20.  Considering I've not really been eating like normal (nausea has really put me off food) and I've gained 6lbs at least!!! How??? I don't understand? My husband thinks my tummy is looking rounder and firmer in his opinion but I want to gain a healthy amount of weight.  Has anyone else out on weight at 8 weeks like myself that's not been through 'eating for two?'
