Weight loss/gain?

I'm 19. This is my first pregnancy and im 16 weeks today. Before i was pregnant i weighed 181. About march 20TH i noticed i was down to 174. I havent gone up or down at all since then. Is this normal? My baby seems to be growing just fine. Ive had 3 ultrasounds in the last month and nothing has seemed to be wrong and shes bigger each time.

Thanks. My doctor was really rushed and just told me to work on gaining weight. I have no idea how to do that haha. But that makes me feel better that others go through it too!

Yes it is very normal. My doctor told me up until your half way through your pregnancy you can loose as much weight as you want, once your over half way mark you have to start gaining. I was 168 when I found out I was pregnant and I'm 151 now.
