Almost 3 months and my weight is still same, pet bhi not showing much yet. Thoda wondering when the real weight gain begins. First time so everything feels new. When did u all start gaining?
For most women, significant weight gain doesn't really start until the second trimester. In the first trimester, you might even lose a couple of kgs due to nausea and food aversions. My doctor gave me a specific healthy weight gain range to aim for, which was super helpful. Don't worry if you're not seeing much change early on; it'll come once morning sickness subsides and baby starts growing rapidly.
Oh, I remember looking in the mirror every day, wondering when the 'baby bump' and weight gain would properly show! It feels like forever. For me, the real gain started around 16-20 weeks, and then it just kept going up! Don't stress if it's not happening yet; everyone's timeline is different. Your body is doing amazing work, and the weight will follow. Just focus on eating healthy for you and baby.
Mol, usually in the first trimester, many women actually lose a little weight because of morning sickness. The real weight gain, where you start seeing it, often begins from the second trimester. My grandmother always said 'oru chinna kuzhandhai valarum,' meaning a small baby is growing, so weight will come. Just listen to your doctor about healthy weight gain range; it's different for everyone.
I'm still pregnant too, and I was wondering the same thing! I'm in my first trimester and honestly, I've barely gained anything, maybe even lost a little because of not wanting to eat much. My gynac said it's totally normal and the main weight gain usually begins from the fourth month onwards. So I guess we just have to be patient and keep eating healthy.
When does weight gain start? For me, it was basically the moment I saw that second line! 😂 Kidding! Mostly, it's the second trimester when your bump pops and the actual baby weight starts adding up. First trimester is often more about surviving nausea. So don't worry if you're not gaining much now; your body's just warming up for the main show!
I totally understand the eagerness to see those changes, that visible sign of your baby growing! In the very early stages, it might just feel like bloating, but proper weight gain usually kicks in more noticeably in the second trimester as the baby grows rapidly. Every body is different, so try not to compare. Just nurture yourself and trust your body's journey.
Girl, don't stress about the weight gain too much initially! In the first trimester, many women actually lose weight or stay stable because of all the nausea. The real 'gaining' typically starts in the second trimester when your appetite comes back and baby really starts growing. Just focus on eating nutritious food and staying hydrated. Your body knows what it's doing!
