only do what your happy with. if you feel your too skinny gain a bit more weight. I am 5 3" and i weigh 9st 3 lbs. i think the right weight for your height is somewhere between 8 1/2 and 10 stone x

if you're not happy being skinny then you should put on some weight. Your BMI is 18.6 which is a bit low; the ideal range is 20-25. you can go up to about 9 stone while keeping a good BMI score. Dont be a slave to BMI though as it doesn't account for muscle vs fat. I am 5ft 4 and weigh 10stone6 which is still a good weight for my height.
it also depends on why you're skinny. think about how much you eat etc, treat yourself to extra biscuites and things.
Keep active, eat a bit more and see what happens. A size 10 would be fine, dont let what others think about you stress you out though.

If YOU are not happy with it, then try to gain a bit. I personally think it is a good size, but I am not the one who has to live with it, you are.

It might help if you specified your age, but the calculator I used says you're 17.4% fat, meaning you're underweight. You should have a weight of over 19%.
So yes, see your GP or get help to gain weight safely. :)
