| Maybe you could buy a pregnancy workout video..but check with the doc first to make sure its ok. Consider yourself lucky that you only weigh 135 right now.. I'm 16 weeks and I wont even say what I weigh.lol. All just say its alot more than 135. ↑ |
| Ya I think I might try a yoga video if i can find one for pregnant women so I know the positions are safe. I have been reading up on it and your only suppost to of gained one pound during the first trimester I don't know if that's true or not maybee everyone is just different and we will just have to work harder to loose it after. ↑ |
| Congratulations on quitting smoking, just concentrate on what a wonderful gift you have already given your baby, forget the extra couple pounds! Great JOB! ↑ |
| Yeah, I'm having the same problem. I've also gained about 10 lbs already. I'm at 10 weeks. I've been trying walking a mile or so a couple of times a week, but just that wears me out now! Also I found this video that's called "the walk diet" I think. It's really low impact and easy to do. You're supposed to gain like 30-40 lbs for the whole pregnancy, right? ↑ |
I did that with my first pregnancy and gained a total of 50 lbs. I started out at 5'5' 110lbs.not good got diabetes from it. if you are of normal weight you should gain 25-35 lbs. first trimester should be 0-3 lbs 2nd through 8th month 1 lb / week last month slow down. This is my second and i dont want to get
gesgational diabetes again so im watching it. im 11 weeks and gained 2 lbs so far. I think its okay as long as your eating healthy first preg i was eating so many sweets my dr said no more sugar but i couldnt stop this time its strict health food no sugay for me good luck when is everyone due? ↑ |
I was in the same boat as you. I gained a lot of weight right away but now it has become hard for me to gain weight. I was 110 to begin with very fit, now in my fifth month and at 126. The only thing that has gained weight is my boobs and my belly.
I found prego yoga dvd's to be great. I live in Minnesota and it's cold here two! I like doing yoga at home because there are no gym memberships, and I don't have to heat up the car. ↑ |
| Thanks for the info I'm looking into yogo DVD's at least it will make me feel better that i'm exercising and trying to do something about it. I am still trying real hard to eat healthy and i went to the dr today for my 12 week check up and i have only gained 1 lb since my last check up a month ago so that is making me feel better. ↑ |
| I thought for a normal, single pregnancy it's between 15 and 25 lbs as 'typical' weight gain. It would be more if you were carrying twins or multiples though. ↑ |
| I didnt read the other responses, just wanted to give you my two cents. DONT WORRY! Youre making a life and once you have this baby, it will all be worth it. I gained 60 pounds my first pregnancy, had a c-section and got back down to normal in 3 months. I know its different for everyone, but if you've always been thin, you'll be thin again.. Good luck! ↑ |
| in all the books and online if your normal weight gain 25-35 if you are under weight gain 35-40 if you are over weight 15-20 ↑ |
