It is OFFICIAL, I am :)

HUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my God. Please tell me its ok.

I will be 11 weeks tomorrow. I already went up a pants size and now I have to use a rubberband. I am so uncomfortable. I refuse to go up another pants size. I will be going shopping tomorrow for maternity clothes.. :((

I have been eating a LOT of bread lately becuase that is all I can stomach... I have such an aversion to food (chicken, steaks, etc). So its a lot of pasta for me and pizza and bagels.

I have gained about 10 lbs so far....... Is this ok? Is my DR. going to embarrass me and tell me I am gaining to fast.

Please Mommies, how much weight did you gain in your 1st trimester?? Please tell me I am not a big fat blubber............. :((((

I actually lost weight because I couldn't eat ANYTHING in my first tri. Don't worry about what's happening to your body right now. That's a good sign because your baby will be healthy.

Your NOT a big fat blubber at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your right on target!!! I gained 13-14 lbs in my 1st trimester. I'm 5 months now, and I gained 20 lbs so far which is OK. Most of the weight you gain is for your baby so no need to stress.
Carbs are very essential in your 1st trimester that's why you crave it so much.. I still crave my carbs everyday.. and I havent lost my addiction to pizza!!!

As you get bigger tho you'll slow down your food intake and wont gain weight so rapidly. In the beginning of pregnancy you always gain a lot. Just try and stay away from junk food like chips, chocolate, donuts, etc..

As long as you are eating to feel good and not overeating that do not worry abou it! Your body pretty much takes the drivers seat now and you just need to do what makes you feel good and keeps the baby healhty.
