I am 9 weeks pregnant and I have already gained weight. Most of my clothes are tight on me now, I can only wear 2 pairs of my jeans now. Is this normal? I am not eating more than I used to, if anything I am actually eating a little bit more healthier than I did before I got pregnant. Is it because I have a small build?

At first you will sometimes get bloated then it will go down some then come back and stay and get bigger and bigger until the big day!! I did that and thought I was showing early, but the doc said it would go back down and it did. Congratulations!!

Usually people that start with a small build do show alot earlier than someone with an average or heavy body type. It also depends on the pregnancy. With my first son, I was huge...I mean HUGE, and now I am 36 weeks pregnant and people think I am lying to them because I am so small they think I am only around 20-24 weeks. lol

Well, your tummy is starting to grow. The baby is getting bigger.
I would advice to take it slow on the weight gain. Try to eat the best foods, like lean proteins and lots of veggies and fruit. Remember to drink lots of water. That helps with the swelling.
The weight is HARD to get off after a baby. I just had my daughter, and after 4 months of medical necessary bed rest, and I still can't get the weight off fast enough. LOL I would sit down with my doctor and ask him what the right weight to gain is. Also ask about exercise and if it's right for you.

Yes!! This is normal. And because you have a small build, you may need to gain a little more weight. Again, every pregnancy is different!!

Maybe. I have a large frame,but I'm of average height. I was growing out of my clothes at 6 weeks. So every woman is different. I had a sister in law that didn't show till she was 7months. It's just luck of the draw! Good luck

It's different for everyone, but since you're smaller, you'll probably show more sooner. As long as you're eating healthy you have nothing to worry about.

Yes that is normal. It could mean that you are having twins. Have you had your first ultrasound yet? But every woman is different so yes that is normal and you shouldn't worry.
