Considering your height and weight proportion....I would have to say yes....you are too thin.....Size five is a good size....do you think that you are too skinny? If you do then you need to gain some weight.....if you think that you are fat then you need to get some help. At 5'6" and 140 pounds I feel good about myself. I wear a size 5-7 pant and I have had two children. Have you thought about talking to your mother about this? Or your doctor? Talk to a health care professional if you are seriously worried about it honey. As a mother of two beautiful little girls...I would be worried if my twelve year old were 5'7" and only weighed little over 100 pounds. I don't want my children to be overweight but being underweight can cause problems too. Keep in mind that you are not done growing yet....you still have a few years before you will stop growing. Take care and I hope that you get your question answered, gain some weight and get help.

You are growing faster than your weight can keep up. This is how most girls do it. Tall first, then come the hips etc.
Expect to put on 20- 40 lbs in the next five or six years.
It's normal.
Are you healthy? That's a better question.

If you were about 4'9 that'd be good. But you're 5'7. That is too skinny. Now, I'm a guy. But I'm around 5'9 and I weigh 130 and I'm in very good shape. There is not much fat anywhere. Flat stomach, little bit of ab muscle it's all good. I'd shoot for around 115 though. Either through muscle or fat. A mix of both would be good.

No, you are 12 years old. Also, as long as you are eating enough it's okay to be thin! I'm thin myself and I always hated that 'you're too skinny' junk. Don't worry about it.
