fibroid & weight loss

Hello, I am 17w6d and I'm considered HR because of a large fibroid. At my last appt my ob said that I still haven't gained weight. 8wks ago my fibroid went from 22cm to 18cm, but as of 4wks ago its size has not changed. My stomach is still getting bigger since my last visit, but weighed myself again today and I've lost another 2lbs. At 9wks I lost 10lbs and still haven't gained it all back yet. My weight has gone up and down but still hasn't gone above the initial 10lbs I lost. I am over weight (5'0" & currently 190) so I'm not sure if that's why I'm losing weight or not? Just wondering if I should be concerned yet?

Re: fibroid & weight loss

  • I wouldn't be concerned. I gained about 1-2 lbs by 20 weeks.
    I'm 27 now and I've pack on about another 10.
    Is your doctor concerned about you not gaining weight?

  • Yes I think she is. Basically told me I need to eat more. My mfm said baby's weight looks ok, but reg ob says she's a kinda small. Ive been eating more, but still losing weight. Pre-pregnancy I was 195. But lost 10lbs within the first two months and can't seem to go back up??
