Hi this is very normal especially in the first trimester when most mommies experience some nausea or loss of appetite. I was also like you, eating small 5 meals a day as I feel bloated easily. This is actually good as it doesn't make you overly full or bloated which are common ailments of pregnancy. I gain only five kg for my pregnancy and my gal came out as 3kg so most of my weight gain went to her. I actually went back to my pre pregnancy weight immediately after I gave birth. So it proves that your weight gain doesn't necessarily mean your baby will be too light or not enough nutrients. During your checkups your Gynae will estimate the baby's weight gain so as long as the increase is healthy and the weight is within range don't worry. One way to make sure your baby absorbs the most nutrients from you is to sleep on your left side. And also take more proteins in the second and third trimester not carbs.
My doctor told me by second trimester the weight will slowly increase. If you can, get high calorie food like durians or potatoes or sweet potatoes to boost up the weight. I took durians (perfect excuse to gain weight), and baby's weight increased pretty quickly so I would say go easy on it. Avoid binge eating so that you have another excuse to eat again. Do be caution too that if you have high risk for gestational diabetes, do consult your doctor.
