Hello dear,i understand your concern.There is only gain of 1 kg in first trimester or first 3 months of pregnancy.This less weight gain is due to nausea,sickness present in pregnancy during the initial months.The maximum growth occurs in 2nd and 3rd trimesters.so dont worry.Take medicines to decrease the sickness.And take healthy nutritional diet which include fruits,veggies,egg,meat ,milk and fish.Take snacks in between the meals.The pain might be due to muscular cramps which are also routinely seen in pregnancy.Take panadol for pain and avoid physical strain and intercourse.Take rest.Ultrasound also helps in knowing the pregnancy status.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
