Answer

No that’s totally fine! The weight guidelines are just there to tell women what they CAN gain during pregnancy but not that they have to. Plus you will eventually gain weight regardless because the placenta, amniotic fluid, baby, your breasts, extra blood etc all add up but there’s no rule to say you have to gain the recommended amount it’s just a guideline and mostly so that women don’t go over that. Don’t stress it’s still super early and I haven’t put on much more than 2kgs but that’s only because I’m so slim and had zero boobs before and now they’ve exploded in size haha 😂

Answer

With my first pregnancy, I was flat as anything. Then, at 20 weeks, I had popped overnight!

This was me by the end...

Then 2 days pp.

Answer

Totally normal! With my first I didn't even show until I was 6 months! I'm pregnant with my third and an 17w now and I have a tiny bump. But I'm still fluctuating weight, sometimes I get on the scale and weigh below my pre pregnancy weight and then I can get on it later in the day and weigh 5 pounds more.

Answer

Normal, I am 17 weeks and I haven't gained much, maybe 1 to 2 pounds since the very beginning.

Answer

Same due date and even though I haven’t had morning sickness, I’ve lost 4 lbs. I haven’t tried to lose any but it just happened. I am curious as to when I will start gaining also.

Answer

Weight gain doesn’t typically start until 20 weeks
