How much weight did you gain in the first trimester?(if any)

Question

I’m only 6 weeks 1 day in, I have been maintaining my weight. I fluctuate 2-3 lbs up and down some days. I try and eat an extra 300 calories a day and do 60 mins of light cardio 5 days a week. I’m also overweight ( 5’3 215lbs)

Answer

In the first trimester you don't need any extra calories (or so they say). But listen to what you doctor recommends.

Answer

You don’t need to eat the extra 300 calories yet. Not until the second trimester or later. I’m 23 weeks and still down 6lbs from starting weight. Being overweight my dr is not concerned at all about the weight loss.

Answer

For some reason I gained most of my weight in the first 18 weeks. I was up 21lbs at 18 weeks and I am 32 weeks now and only up 7lbs in 14 weeks. 28lbs total.

Answer

I lost 7 lbs this pregnancy and then gained 2 back during my 1st trimester. Now that I’m almost done with my second trimester I’ve gained 5 over my starting weight.

Answer

You aren’t underweight and are eating extra for a peanut  - you might not need to add extra calories yet. Just eat healthy and don’t make yourself go hungry. Ask your doctor for a nutrition plan if you feel you need to modify your diet.
