How much weight gain during first trimester?

My first trimester just ended, and I barely gained any weight. Is this normal? My mother said she gained a lot in her first trimester, so I'm confused.

First trimester mein bahut zyada weight gain usually nahi hota hai. Thoda bohot normal hai, especially if you're dealing with morning sickness. Bas healthy khana khao and doctor se consult karte raho. Tension mat lo.

Usually, first trimester mein zyada weight nahi badhta, so don't worry too much. But do keep track of your diet because later on, managing health can get expensive if there are complications. Regular doctor visits and basic tests are important, they save money in the long run.

First trimester was all about surviving the cravings and morning sickness for my wife! Some days she'd just want chaat, other days just plain daal chawal. Weight gain was minimal, maybe 1-2 kgs. Just eat what makes you feel good, within reason, of course!

It varies a lot for everyone, but generally, not much weight gain is expected in the first trimester. If you're gaining a lot very quickly or losing unexpectedly, please get it checked by your doctor. Better safe than sorry, always.

Oh, beta, pehle teen mahine mein toh kai baar ulta weight loss ho jaata hai ulti ki wajah se! Bahut zyada expect mat karo. Meri beti ka bhi aisa hi hua tha. Jo bhi khaane ka mann kare, healthy ho toh khao, aur doctor ki baat suno. Sab theek ho jaayega.

As someone who manages diabetes, I'd say be mindful of what you're eating even in the first trimester. While some cravings are natural, avoid excessive sugars and refined carbs. A small, healthy gain is generally fine, but always check your blood sugar and consult your doctor regularly about diet.
