losing weight??

Hi, I'm near the end of week 10 and I haven't gained any weight, actually lost about 3lbs. I haven't been sick or really had any strong food aversions. Is this normal?

I didn't start gaining until my teen weeks, even then it was incredibly slow.  I was so eager to put on the weight lol, but now at 25 weeks I'm a few pounds ahead and need to try to maintain.  There are some women, especially if they're over weight that will continue to maintain their pre pregnancy weight well into their pregnancy.  I don't think JTS until your second trimester that doctors will be concerned if there's no weight gain.

I'm 15 weeks and haven't put on weight,  but lost 5lbs. As long as your doctor isn't worried, you're good.

Completely normal. If u r not eating more than usual than u won't gain. I'm 37 weeks pregnant and only gained 15 lbs total. Every one is different. This is my third and with all 3 I never gained more than 15 lbs.
