Underweight and struggling to gain
- I am 24 weeks and have gained 8 pounds. The first 7 were gained by 20 weeks. My BMI was 17 before getting pregnant, and I am utilizing most of the recommendations on this site. I have upped my calories from 950-1100/ day to 1500-1700/ day. The only thing left to do is a powder supplement. I at least want to fall into the average range, even if it is a low average.

can't gain weight
- I've always been healthy in that sense but always underweight. Its impossible for me to gain weight. The doctor said my bmi is 17. Ok that's low, but its always been like that. I can't help it, I literally can't eat more than I do. They don't understand that it costs money to buy all this food
