The word fat has different meanings for everyone, what you consider fat may not be for someone else. Keep in mind that you are pregnant and nourishing a life in your body. That baby depends on you for growth and weight gain is inevitable, for obvious reasons- If you are normal weight before pregnancy:
-Gain 25 to 35 pounds during pregnancy.
If you are overweight before pregnancy:
-Gain 15 to 25 pounds during pregnancy.
If you are underweight before pregnancy:
-Gain 28 to 40 pounds during pregnancy (depending on your pre-pregnancy weight). See your health care provider if you are concerned about your weight. She or he can help you determine the weight gain that is right for you.
If you are already pregnant and are overweight, do not try to diet.
If you need help planning a healthy diet that will help you gain the proper amount of weight, ask about seeing a dietitian or nutritionist.

Read your question slowly. Okay now that that is out of the way lets see if I can understand what you were trying to ask. Yes it is ok to get bigger when you have a baby INSIDE your stomach. A stomach grows when a BABY IS INSIDE of it. The rest of you might grow too because of swelling and water retention. Just don't eat excessively. Eat what you used too plus a couple extra hundred calories. No junk food or pop which isn't good for the baby anyways (you know the baby that is INSIDE OF YOUR STOMACH)
Congratulations

Are you eating too much? Your diet should not be any different other than healthier than normal if you usually eat bad. If you are eating more fatty, bad food than usual or have stopped exercise then you will put on weight even if you are pregnant. Eat well, exercise with a swim or walk more regularly (if ok with your doctor/nurse) & any weight you put on will only be the required amount & you should loose it quickly after birth. Enjoy your body - pregnant women look beautiful.
