When I was pregnant I read something early on that you should not let your self get hungry. I ended up eating more than I really needed to, especially for the first trimester when the baby is only a tadpole! Thankfully, I figured out what was going on and slowed down my weight gain. Gaining 30-35 pounds overall. My OB really harped on me about my weight the entire time. It kind of stressed me out. Especially since I wasn't gaining a ridiculous amount AND I felt like I was seeing hugely fat (but not far along) pregnant women everywhere. You do not have to eat for two. I think an extra bowl of cereal before bed is enough! Plus ice cream cones every night... ha ha! That made my husband gain 15 plus pounds!
