21w 3d and I have only gained 2lbs. I actually didn't gained those 2lbs until I hit 20w. As long as you and the little one are healthy there shouldn't be anything to worry about.

I'm 18 weeks and haven't gained any weight yet. But I know weight gain has to do with were you were before you got pregnant. I'm 5'8 and 241 lbs if I gained weight to quickly it could be dangerous for me and the baby.

I am 19w 2d and I have gained 3,5kg. As long as you feel fine, don't worry too much. Everyone gains differently and it's just important that you eat reasonably amd drink loads of water.

As of my 18 week appointment, I had gained about 6 lbs. I hadn't gained anything at my 13 week appointment, but once I started popping, I also started gaining. I'm now 20+3, but I'm trying not to weigh myself at home to stay consistent with the doctor's measurements. As long as you're healthy and eating what you should be for baby's development, I wouldn't stress about the number on the scale!

I asked my doc today and she said as long as you are eating healthy and whenever you are hungry you shouldnt worry too much about weight gain until 3rd tri when baby really starts putting on fat. Im 17w3d and havent put on any.

I'm 20w1d & only gained a pound. & that pound was one I lost in my first trimester to technically I haven't gained anything. As long as you're eating healthy, you'll be fine. You should start gaining a few pounds a week once you reach 20 weeks
