Oh I didnt have a single trace of pregnancy show until about 22 weeks, infact even later. When I was full term, ppl thought I was in the 6th month, I had a healthy baby.
17 week and not gaining weight
August 11, 2008
hello doctor,
My lmp date is 24.4.08. We tried naturally and have conceived and now i am in the 17 week pregnant. But i have severve nausea and indigestion problems till 14 week. sonography done on 13w5d is fine. I was having 59 kg before conceiving. Now i am 58 kg. my height is 5 ft2inches. my doc says i should gain atleast 12 to 14 kg during 9 months. i have lactose intolerance. so i have now only switched to curd and buttermilk. Doc has given some supplements like B protein....How am I going to gain weight? Bp is normal. i am not showing baby bump...i am worried...should i start to feel baby movements now?

Hi.....I agree with the other ladies....this is very normal. Some people don't gain to later on in the pregnancies. I didn't gain more than 3 lbs until my 2nd tri (maybe like 16-17 weeks). This is probably common too since you had some sickness early on. take care and enjoy it.....soon you will be gaining a pound a week!
Hi fran and hopen...thanks for writing abt ur experience. Its just that i just want it go fine. I had to struggle a lot to get pregnant. it was miracle that we conceived naturally. I am going for blood tests tommorrow : cbc,vdrl,hiv,hbs,urine,tsh etc...Then I will have to go for sonography also...I have started to take curd and buttermilk instead of milk. Hope it helps...
