    yeah, could just be a late bloomer! I was! It took me weeks, tho it was before 18wks (not much tho). I came out of the bathroom and said "I've put on xkg!" and dh's Nan, who didn't know I hadn't put on any yet, told me " Of course! You're pregnant!" as if I didn't know that I was going to put on weight! I was annoyed at the time - pg hormones - but found if funny a few days later!

    Ive lost 4.5kg since getting a BFP... without the help of bad m/s too. As long as you are eating well then i wouldnt worry.

    No need to worry. As long as bubs is growing well, it doesn't matter how much/little weight we put on. I lost weight all through the first trimester, and have put on 6kg at 29 weeks. There's no hard and fast rules with weight gain - every woman is different.

    I had gained nothing at 14 weeks and was worried and now at 24 weeks (and since getting my appetite back) I've gained 12 kgs I was concerned I'd gained too much in so little time! My pre pregnancy weight was 48kg and now I'm 60kg. I think it's a huge shock either way: gaining nothing/losing weight or gaining heaps. I agree, our bodies know what they're doing and as long as we're keeping active, eating healthy and drinking plenty of water it should all be good
