Christy,

I was about your size with my first pregnancy. I lost weight first trimester (that is common) and only gain 12 pounds overall. It is the first time that being larger was a good thing. We didn't need to lay down fat for storage for the baby and ourselves. Your weight may stay the same, but it will shift to the pregnant belly.

I hope your glucose studies come back and make sure you take your iron!!! Your blood volume is going to increase and you need that iron.
