Lander, I yo-yo with my weight!
With my boys I ate loads of junk & often ate for 2! I gained so much weight!
I started a steady diet just after xmas of healthier eating but having a treat day once a week but no weighing myself (I become obsessed) I was jogging & swimming a few times a week. When I found out I was pregnant, the first thing I started panicking about was my weight! I am trying so hard not to eat junk but I am craving cheese so much! I wake up wanting cheese! But I try to be healthy and have it with salad or a jacket potato. However I get full quite quickly so there's no chance of eating for 2 this time! Also if I am hungry between meals, I eat apples & so on! I'm surprised where my will power has come from this time! But I feel huge right now! But everyone keeps saying apart from my stomach taking shape & don't look like i'm gaining weight!
Does the midwife weigh you at check ups?? I'm dreading it if she does! x x x

Had the same bloating you're describing.
I've eaten what I want and when I want, but overall am eating healthier now than before my BFP. Am 28 weeks in and so far have only gained 9lbs (the books say a pound a week from 20 weeks onwards is average)
Am far more aware of what I'm eating now, am sure you will be too, try not to worry too much!
