No weight gain

Hi. Has anyone else experienced no weight gain in the first 20 weeks? I know my mom said she was only growing in boobs but not sure if it's genetics or something else. Have another week to go to the anomaly scan and the mind is wandering!

Hi Kristin, I was worried about this too but my midwife assured me it was totally normal it’s just one of those things! I’m 28wks and finally seeing just under 1kg increase now with baby and placenta all doing well. It is totally different pregnancy to pregnancy so if you’re concerned about anything raise it with your midwife but I didn’t see any gain until I hit the end of 27wks, hope that reassures you 💖

I’m 31 weeks and I’ve gained 0.3kg my entire pregnancy. Everyone’s different and as long as you’re taking on enough food and water it shouldn’t be an issue! If your concerned, then speak with your midwife and they should be able to reassure you 💗 i hope your scan goes well, the anomaly scan feels very daunting but it’s so reassuring and exciting when you’re there!

Count your blessings. I am 9 weeks and have gained 17 lbs. Was 133 lbs and athletic before getting pregnant. I am so depressed.
