I am 12 weeks pregnant and my third pregnancy. i have put on weight fast this time. i look like im five months pregnant and only 12 weeks.

your body is prepared this time and let me tell you every pregnancy is different in one way or another! I gained bad with my son but with my daughter I lost. You should focus on eating healthy and trying to do proper excersice to stay in shape and to help you through the remainder of the pregnancy as well as delivery. Yoga and pilates(sp?) can help with that. You can ask your doctor for a list of things you can do as well. Also if you get further into the pregnancy and you still feel your weight with this one is a problem make sure to address this with your doctor or midwife many things can cause this during pregnancy besides the growth of the baby. Good luck mama!

its because your bod knows what to do, pretty normal-watch what you eat-start moving, walking, yoga and hope for the best-if you actually gain too much post baby you can do the diet thing

Oh same here i am only 6 weeks with my 3rd and feel like I am 3 months, I think its because you are all stretched out so instead of with your first pregnacy when you have nice tight muscles holding it all together you have nothing holding it all together so you just go out.... This is what my doc told me. Hope it helps and congrats on your 3rd coming

When and if the doctor becomes concerned, he/she will tell you. I've had six and as we become pregnant more, each pregnancy is different. We don't have the same body or structure as the first time. Our bodies were already "used" and stretched. I'm not being funny, just honest.

I'm pushing 50 and have had six healthy children, and I am thin (size 3 to 5 depending on the clothes maker). I don't think you should be concerned unless your doctor is concerned.

When or if the doctor becomes concerned, try eating more servings of fresh veggies and fruit per day. Another way of keeping down your weight during this time is to make bran muffins from scratch using a bran cereal purchased from the market. High fiber and moving our bowels is excellent while pregnant but even after. Fresh veggies eating raw is the best to stay fit and healthy.

You can and should try to go for a walk each day on purpose, but get your doctors OK first.

In the end, don't worry. Be happy and remember we aren't going to be the same with each new pregnancy, but we can be fit.

Good Luck!
