gaining weight or losing weight

well with me i am 24 weeks and i have only gained 7 pounds so far my doc says its okay because i lost most of that weight from morning sickness, but i find it very hard to gain even a pound i just want my baby boy to be healthy you know, but have any of you other mommies had any weight trouble wheather it is gaining too much or not gaining at all lett me know somme advice cause i am telling you i am getting so tired of people telling me how small i am for 6 months, it makes me feel bad like i am not doing enough

Im sure you are fine, just enjoy the fact that you arent ballooning into an elephant like me.  

I always gain too much with all my pregnancies. I just indulge in whatever I want.

ive gained 36 pounds and im 33 weeks the norm is between 25-35

Oh I am sure you are not an elephant!!

And I am 27 weeks and have gained 10 pounds...but I know that I will gain at least 20 in the upcoming weeks as this is the 3rd trimester!! As long as you are eating, getting good nutrients and all of that, you should be good!

Oh, and I feel huge, but I completely LOVE it when people say I'm small!!   I'd rather be small AFTERWARD!

i didn't gain any.. in fact i lost.. then right at the end i gained about 4 pounds in a week.. ( from water ) .. he is a very healthy boy. and i've ended up 20 lbs lighter then before i was pregnant..... I had bad morning sickness and then my gall bladder f'd up.. so that is why I didn't gain weight.. just eat healthy take your vitamins and you'll be fine

i do eat all the healthy stuff like veggies and fruits and protein and those damn vitamins, but sometimes my baby starts kicking for the junk and thats where i know ima have a problem i have the biggest sweet tooth but i figure if i eat the healthy stuff a little bit of junk wont hurt if anything i will gain some weight

wow thats crazy i am glad i gained something i guess it is okay to be small it should be easier to get rid of baby weight

I'm 7 weeks and I've been eating what I feel is way too much throughout the day and I'm still losing weight!  I went out of town with my man for a funeral and we ate like kings and queens all week long.  I swear I feel SO huge but I'm just not gaining weight.  I shouldn't even complain because I know it's just the beginning and I'll be thinking "why did I feel so huge?  I didn't know a thing back then"

I haven't gained any weight and im 22 weeks and 3 days! I lost weight at first but Im still under where I started. Dont worry too much !

I've gained 20 lb. in 21 weeks.   I'm going in tomorrow for my appointment, hope I didnt gain any more... I just weighed myself last week!
