Anyone else losing weight?

I lost about 2.5lbs since last week. I am not having horrible m/s but never really feel like eating. Should I be concerned? FWIW I am overweight but not by much

Re: Anyone else losing weight?

  • Many people loose some weight during first tri because of nausea/no appetite/morning sickness and it's not usually a concern until 2nd and 3rd tri.

  • I have lost about 7 pounds so far.  M/S was bad in the beginning, but it's done with now, for the most part.  Weighed myself this morning and saw I was done another few pounds.  Kinda sucks though, cause this is the lowest weight I've been since high school!  haha  But it will all catch up with me sooner or later.

  • My last pregnancy I lost 5 lbs in the first 7 weeks. I never put it back on, this time on around I haven't gained a pound, nor am I bloated. 

    I had a friend who lost 10 lbs her first trimester and they weren't worried. And you have a little extra padding like most of us, so your OB shouldn't mind either as long as you are eating and taking your PNVs.  Like MrsG said, my understanding also is that the important weight gain comes in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters.

  • I lost 11 lbs with DS last year- dont' worry about it.  You will gain it back in your 2nd and 3rd tri.  It is very natural to sometimes lose weight during your 1st tri.

  • I've lost a pound, gained it back, lost it, gained it back, went up half a pound, lost a pound.  I am right at the cusp of being underweight and strangely my doctor has been completely silent on the issue.

    Personally, from waht I have read, I am pleased to be where I am.  The books recommend starting weightgain in the second trimester and so I intend to focus more on it in a few weeks.  It may be related to making healthier eating decisions (fruit instead of chips, etc.)

  • I've lost about 3-4 lbs. I was still continuing to loose weight from not drinking so much soda (went from 5-8 a day to 1 or 2 one day a week) And also from m/s. I wouldn't be too concerned. I am quite overweight, and my OB told me today it would be fine if I didn't gain any weight, or even possibly lost a little weight, as long was it wasn't from dieting or anything. 
  • Thanks ladies, I feel much better.  
  • I wish!!! lol

  • I agree with everyone that you shouldn't worry. I also am very jealous. I cannot STOP eating and i think I'm gaining too much too early

  • I've lost 7 lbs so far and find it amusing that the one side effect of pregnancy I didn't anticipate was fitting in my skinng jeans again!

  • I went to the doctor on Friday and had lost 5lbs from my previous appt.  My doctor was not worried at all.  She was just concerned about the amount of protein I wasn't eating because I wasn't eating much.

  • Yes, have lost 5 lbs in 1.5 weeks. Seem to be maintaining now... not worried though because the doctor said  I would catch up in the next trimester.

  • I wouldn't worry about it. I've heard of some ladies loosing 10-20 pounds in the first trimester. I've lost 4 so far and I'm just adding it to the weight I lost before I got pregnant. Wink

  • I lost 8 lbs during my first trimester w/ baby  #1.  I have already lost 4 lbs with this pregnancy.  It's normal during 1st trimester.

  • I haven't lost weight, but have stayed at my pre-pregnancy weight. At this point it's a blessing as I don't want to be a monster preggo mommy... I am sure the gain will come soon...

  • I have lost about 4 pounds.  My doctor said it was normal during the first tri to lose some weight.  She said if  I were to continue losing weight in the 2nd and 3rd trimester then it would concern her.  So, I think you are fine!
  • I've lost 6.5 lbs so far but have held steady at the same weight for the past few weeks. No matter what I eat, I don't seem to be gaining weight. I have m/s a lot but when I do indulge I go all out...baby must have upped my metabolism because normally if I would eat chicken nachos or cheeseburgers I would gain a lb or 2.
  • I've had m/s for the past 3 weeks and I've lost about 4 pounds total.  Luckily, my m/s is finally starting to subside.
