I've Hardly Gained A Thing! Should I worry?

Question

Hi ladies,

I am 23 weeks and 4 days pregant and I am only 1lb above my start weight. I am average weight and tall - 5'9.

In the beginning I weighed 156.
I lost 5 pounds from bad morning sickness. Eventually I gained the weight back and now I am 157.

I am eating frequently and getting a lot of protein. Why am I not putting on weight?

Baby boy is measuring on track. Should I be worried? Anyone else have this no weight gain experience? What should I do??

Answer

You actually gain 6 pounds not 1 pound, which is normal for 23 weeks. Don't worry :)

Answer

I've gotten only 1lb. I was told my body will do it's thing as long as I eat well not to worry.

Answer

I haven't gain any I lost 7 and keep losing each week I don't know why but they don't want me to in the third trimester which is coming soon but how do you stop something that you have no idea why it is happening I haven't had morning sickness nor have I changed anything except no coffee lol I'm lost but I hope even if I can't stop losing weight that my baby continues to be okay
