How Much Weight Should I Gain?
Posted: 01-10-04 21:48pm

I am 6 weeks, close to 7 weeks pregnant and I was wondering how much weight I should of gained. Before I was pregnant I weighed 119 and now I am at like 123. Is that normal, or am I just getting fat? I dont know if I shuold be gaining weight yet. I have an appointment on thursday to see how everything is going. I am constantly hungry. I wake up at 4:00am wanting to eat something? Is this normal?

Dont worry hun its normal* I was freaking out because ive gained like 10-12 lbs and im 13 weeks tomorrow.. I thought u dont gain alot inthe beginning. .But the doc told me its completely normal because your body is holding everything it needs to make the home for the baby.. Extra water etc.. And tons more. Your not gettin fat trust me! Also, I was starving the 1st 10 weeks! Goodluck*
