At my 14 week appt, I had lost 2 lbs, which means I have only lost weight so far. The Doc didnt seem concerned. I am curious what I will be at my next appt in a few weeks. Like you, I am hungry all the time and eat all the time, so it baffles me! As long as your Dr isnt concerned, then I wouldnt worry. I am sure it will all even out eventually!

I lost 7 lbs. total in the first 3 months and I have only just started putting them back on. Recently it seems like they're falling off again. I never thought it would be this hard to put on weight! I'm not always hungry, but I certainly thought I was eating enough. I guess not. I know how you feel. Ask your dr. what he thinks. If he's worried about your lack of weight gain maybe he'll have some better advice for you. I'm sorry I am not much help, I just wanted to let you know it's not just you!

I've ONLY lost weight so far in my pregnancy.  My doc suggested the Ensure a day, and making sure I'm eating full fat dairy, etc, as well as lots of small meals whether I'm hungry or not.  But in the end as long as the babies are thriving, she's not too concerned.  I have to admit I've been concerned, I figure my metabolism is just in overdrive, and stress could probably just make it worse.  I started out on the heavy side though, so I've had it to lose too.  GL

I've gained and then lost, twice so far in this pregnancy.  As long as you are eating, staying hydrated and baby is doing well it is probably not a concern.  What does the Dr say?

As long as your baby is growing and getting enough nutrients, losing weight usually isn't an issue. There are quite a few ladies here that have lost weight while pregnant. You could have a higher metabolism, and if you are eating smaller meals thru out the day, that would explain the weight loss. 

If your doctor isn't worried, try not to be either.
