Hi, I don't know if this is normal, but i was weighed by my midwife on Monday and i have not put on any weight! I was weighed when i was 8 weeks pregnent and now i am 18 weeks! I just want to know if this is healthy and if this means my baby is not growing? My midwife said it is okay but i want to know if anyone else has had this.

Hi hun, I'm still the same weight at 18wks as I was at 8!? I have had the same concerns as my bump is barely showing. The midwife has said it is different for all women and I shouldn't worry. I have regular heartbeat checks and have felt the baby move slightly so everything seems to be ok. Try not to worry!

I weighed a stone lighter with my first at that same point i think because sometimes the baby takes everything from us and being put off food with nausea.  It wouldnt be anything to worry about or the midwife would want to monitor you.  Good Luck xx

Thanks all, you have put my mind to rest!!! I think i just needed to know i was not the only one!
