Do you have any morning sickness? I actually lost weight my first trimester. I was so incredibly nauseous that I barely ate. My doctor was never concerned with my weight during the first trimester though. It wasn't until the second tri that he started getting on me about gaining more.

I also lost weight in my first trimester.

I've read that it's fine to not gain any during the first tri. Most of the weight is supposed to be put on during the 2nd and 3rd from what I can gather.

Just consider yourself lucky!! Totally normal.

i didn't gain any in my first tri either, and then went on to gain 40 lbs :P! hahah..... i will admit that about 10 lbs of that was probably preventable and was a direct corrolation with kraft dinner and big pasta lunches healthy baby at the end!

I hardly gained anything in the first trimester, but my clothes stopped fitting pretty early because i was so bloated-- pretty much I just looked a little fatter, not pregnant. I had m/s but I had to eat carbs constantly, so I was worried I'd gain too much, but it was about 2 pounds I think.

I lost 11 pounds by the time I was 20 weeks. I'm 39 weeks, now and only am 10 pounds over my starting weight.

I lost weight during the first b/c of all the puking.

It's in the normal range to not gain weight or even to lose up to 5% of your pre-pregnancy weight in the first trimester. No worries!

I lost 9 pounds in my first 14 weeks. I've out about 6 back on in the last few but am still a little under my starting weight and I'm just about 18w. I was feeling pretty sick the first few months but am eating better again. My doctor wasn't overly concerned but I saw a dietician just to make sure I was doing all I could to stay healthy.
