Hey Kitkat...no worries. I didnt gain an ounce until almost 18 weeks. I'm sure all is fine!

Everyone gains differently! Not sure how much I had gained by then.. I think it was maybe ten or maybe a few more? I've only gained 16 total, and I'm 32 weeks. I haven't gained anything in close to 2 months... so.. its all what your body does! As long as you are eating enough nutrition for the baby, and the baby is growing properly.. no need to worry!

Hey Kit Kat.......I agree with everyone else. Don't worry...honestly everyone is so different and may not gain. I had only gained 5 lbs through my 1st tri and a 1/2. I'm sure you are fine. Once you see the doc on MOnday he will measure for the size of your uterus to see the baby's size. Take care and keep us posted!
