Question
Hello Roni,
I just came across this sight and have a question you might be able to help me out with.I have looked everwhere and have not found an answer for this yet.  I know I am pregnate, i have not gotten my cylce since January 22 (not the only reason i know i am) so i figure i am around 13-14 weeks along... could i actullly be that far along?... the reason I am asking this is becuse I have not gained ANY weight at all actullly have lost a couple of pounds.  I eat about 4-5 times a day meals and snacks due to not having any morning sickness exept for twice so I just figured maby I am not as far along as I think or somthing is wrong...i have not seen my doctor yet and i cant be sceduled in to see him for another 2 weeks any info would be helpful, thank you so much for your time.

Answer
Have you taken a test?  First thing to do is confirm you are pregnant.
Losing weight in the early weeks is not uncommon, but most of the time it is due to feeling ill, which you say you are not.
It may be nothing but it should be addressed.  You should call your Dr. and explain you are concerned they may get you in earlier.
Good luck to you.
