3rd Trimester

Did anyone lose weight in the third tri?

It's so weird (and I'm not complaining just concerned--I lost 2lbs two weeks ago and now another two last night..so strange..and they weighed me on different scales. I did have that dreaded stomach virus a week or so ago..My OB said I'm fine..baby is 3lbs currently..Was just wondering if anyone else had a weight loss? My friend said maybe it's water weight?

  • I didn't lose any but haven't gained anything over the past several visits.

  • I lost 1 lb last week, gained 5 this week. My body is doing all sorts of weird stuff.

  • Sometimes I'm absolutely bloated with water weight and other times it completely goes... so who freakin' knows how much I weigh. I'd gained 1lb over the last month but it might be more because the time I was weighed before that I was bloated.

    lol.

  • I lost a pound between 33 weeks and 35 weeks.  I haven't gained a pound in the last two weeks (I'm 37 weeks now).  My doctor isn't concerned, as my fundal height keeps increasing.  Its not uncommon to lose weight in the third tri, especially if baby is higher up.  I know that I just cannot eat a lot of food in one sitting because I don't have room!

  • I've lost 5 pounds over the past few visits, but fundal height is increasing and the baby is active.

    I have been told no more going to the gym, said at this point brisk walks are enough to keep me active.  I go again tomorrow, so we'll see if I've gained back any of my weight.

    I find I'm just not that hungry these days, but I'm carrying way up in my lungs so that probably has something to do with it.  If your doctor isn't worried then you shouldn't be either.  :)

  • I've lost so much weight during my pregnancy that im going to end up weighing less after the baby is born than i did pre- pregnancy!  I was gaining fine until halfway through my 2nd trimester then I started losing. My LO is gaining and weighs a little over 5lbs now and he's very active so the docs aren't worried.
  • I lost a few pounds between 34 and 36 weeks. My doctor is fine with it.

  • Yes, I have lost 5lbs in the last two weeks, however I have GD and have been on a strict diet.  I am overweight anyway and so my Dr didnt really want me to gain much to begin with.  Today she said as long as I am meeting all of my nutritional requirements daily, that I will be fine.

  • I gained almost 7lbs in two weeks. That reality check made me start eating better [better late than never...?] and have lost a couple pounds. I'm guessing it's okay since I'm still eating all the right things, just not overindulging. And I've gained so much that I'm most likely losing it from my legs/arms/face rather than baby places. :)
  • last week they told me i lost two pounds then this week i gained two pounds
