Honey I shrunk...

DiscusCoachDiscusCoach
in 2nd Trimester

No. Not the kids.

I shrunk. My mat pants are falling off and I feel lighter. I know I am down 4 lbs since getting pg (mainly due to throwing up all the time) but this dramatic difference in waist size is weird.

BTW - My ticker is off. I am due 10/6 so I am at about 14 weeks I guess. Gotta make a new ticker...

Never mind on the ticker. I guess I did that last week.

    I've lost 14lbs this pregnancy, but the weight seems to have come off my thighs, arms, and butt, I have a bump.  My maternity jeans are low cut and fit when I bought them but they seem to fall down on me too now.  I'm slowly putting the weight back on though so hopefully I'll have but to hold them up again.

    Many women lose weight during the first trimester mainly due to sickness, and even those who aren't throwing up might still lose weight because of all the calories your body is burning making your baby. I lost five pounds my first trimester and never had one day of morning sickness, the doctor said it was perfectly fine as long as I was eating and not 'trying' to lose the weight. Nearing my third trimester now and I've gained it all back, and then some.

    Haha this! I'm in the same boat - lost 5 in the first tri, gained it back plus 7.

    Ha! I know I'll gain it back. Happy for the little buffer though. Might as well have some sort of silver lining to all the puking.
