Don't feel bad. Its OK. I'm 26 weeks and still haven't gained anything. My doctors keep asking me if I'm eating and I tell them like a horse. Lol. If your doctor is concerned they will let you know.

it is only a problem if you started off underweight - less than 18% BMI

I lost almost 10 lbs the 1st trimester from morning sickness and then didn't start gaining until the end of my 2nd trimester.  Talk w ur Dr but if he/she hasn't voiced any concern I wouldn't worry about it either. Best of luck!

I'm thinking it's normal. The baby is only oz. At this point.... I'm 16 weeks and have gained 6 lbs. But I think mostly cus I've been eating fatty foods and tend to gain weight quickly.

I would not concern right now. You're still at an early stage of pregnancy. I'm 15 weeks and haven't gained much either. In my first pregnancy I didn't start to put on weight until in my late third trimester. Make sure you eat and take prenatal vit daily. That's all matter.

Its normal I only gained 2lbs at that point a lot of women don't start until 20 weeks.
