Weight Gain

Alright so I'm almost 5weeks pregnant and I've already gained 10 POUNDS! I can't believe it. My pregnancy tracker says that my weight is high for where I'm at in my pregnancy. Although when my mom had her first child (me) she gained 70+lbs! So maybe its normal for me to be gaining so much weight? But the weird thing is that before I found out that I'm pregnant I wasn't eating unhealthy and didn't notice weight gain. Normally I eat normal portions so even though I hardly would exercise I would still maintain a healthy weight without gaining weight. But ever since I found I was pregnant I've been eating less and less, I just don't feel like eating. I'll eat barely anything and feel so full I feel sick. So the weight gain isn't from eating. I posted another question about the conception date. My weight gain is whats making me think that we conceived when medhelp's tracker(feb 16th) says we did instead of my phone's app (march 1st). What do you guys think? Am I gaining too much weight? Or am I just father along??? Thanks for the help :)

Thanks so much for even reading my long post lol :) I get a little wordy. I needed those words of reassurance thank you :) I was all worried because medhelps tracker showed that I was at a way high weight gain. So do you think I won't gain any more weight for a while then since your 16weeks and have also gained 10lbs? I know everyones different but I just like to ask :) I'm assuming I'm going to get HUGE and gain a LOT of weight cause my mom gained over 70lbs with me and I was her first. And I heard that your pregnancy will be like your mothers (kind of like a genetic thing almost? idk). Is that even true? Thanks again for the reply :)
