As long as bub is healthy, its all good.
Did you have bad morning sickness? I have heard this can make people lost weight but it wont affect bubs health.

I think that I am going through that now. I am finding it easier to loose weight, and harder to gain!! I am really trying to gain weight for my baby, and its hard cause I am underweight for my age and height.

It's just frustrating becuase I feel like I'm always stuffing my face, but it doesn't seem to be enough. when I decided to keep, I figured I might as well be as healthy as possible, but it's kind of disheartining. I guess I just don't feel pregnant withouth gaining weight but as long as the baby is healthy, i shouldn't worry.

I was loosing weight at the start of my pregnancy as well an i didnt have morning sickness at all... and my baby is healthy acctually his bigger then he should be for how far along i am....so weather u gain it wont really harm the baby u will start gaining weight when the time is right.

I havnt hoped on the scales in a while acctully hahaha since like the first 2 months of pregnancy... so im not even sure if i have put on weight i am sure i have about 7 kilos i would say an im 22weeks

I would not worry it about it at all, especially if your doctor doesn't show any concern. The same thing happened to me except I had debilitating morning sickness up until my third month. (even water turned my stomach sour) I had lost a good six pounds until I finally started gaining it back and that was at about six months. While my doctor showed no distress about it it still bothered me so I took it upon myself to find ways to gain weight. I would drink a large glass of chocolate Carnation Instant Breakfast every morning and sometimes again at night (mostly because I thought it was delicious) and soon enough I slowly started packing on the pounds =]]]
I hope this helped you.
