I know with my last two pregnancies I had gained weight by 8 weeks. I also know if you have really bad morning sickness it is normal to lose weight. But, if that is not going on, should you have gained a pound or two by 8 weeks? I haven't gained any weight so far at all. Things are changing, some days it even looks like my tummy is bigger due to bloating but I am not gaining anything. Has anyone else not gained weight at this point?

You will be fine. I am 3 months pregnant right now and I have only gained one pound. As long as you don't lose any drastic amount of weight, you'll be fine.

This is totally normal, you're actually not meant to gain any weight due to the pregnancy until the second trimester. I can't remember exactly but it was about 4 months before I even put on a pound. I've now made up for that and at one week overdue I am up 3 stone on my pre-pregnancy weight! I do remember having lots of bloating early on and was amazed that I hadn't put any weight on as I looked so much bigger - it's just water retention.

I am nearly 7 montths and haven't gained any weight. I lost some in the first couple weeks and got that back. That is it. I haven't gained any additional weight at all. Doc says I'm fine because baby is growing and there are no issues. So I wouldn't worry about it! It just means that your body is effectively using the weight that it has and be happy you aren't blowing up like a blimp! That's what my doc said!

Many women do. You cannot compare this pregnancy with the others, theyre just not going to be all the same.
As long as you're not losing weight its nothing to be concerned about.
