I'm currently 22 weeks pregnant with my second child and I've only put on 2-3kgs so far? Is this normal in a way or should I be worried.
I wasn't a small person before pregnancy (100kg) but did eat somewhat healthy and was very active.
I gained a total of 10kg all up with my first pregnancy 2 years ago!
Checkups baby is doing fine, strong heartbeat, ultrasound shows good growth with no worries.
I will definitely be asking my doctor next visit, just wanted to get opinions if you think this is normal or do you think I should be worried? Would love to hear any similar stories.
Thanks

This was me for my first pregnancy. I remember ringing my mum after my 20 week checkup and asking her thoughts (the doctor had told me it was fine but mum knows best ?). Once I stopped working and slowed down a lot from carrying a big bump the weight came on. I think as long as bub is doing fine and you're eating well and looking after yourself then there's nothing to worry about x
I lost weight when I was pregnant. Doctors and midwives all said it was fine, as long as I was eating healthy and baby was growing fine.
I wouldn't worry too much, as long as your baby stays healthy.
I'm 32 weeks pregnant ... I had put on 6kg over the pregnancy, and now I'm back to my starting weight (I've lost all 6kg) I'm still healthy , doing everything I should be ... Just losing weight !! My dr isn't worried and baby is measuring what it should be !!
Some of us just aren't good at weight gain while pregnant !!
Though I have no trouble at all when not pregnant :)
