anyone else losing weight :(??

babyruth88 · April 2012

over the last four days I have lost 4lbs. I know it can be common when getting close to the end I was just wondering if anyone else is losing any. I am not complaining as I gained almost 40lbs up until this point in my pregnancy so this brings me to the healthy 35. but still anyone else going through this

I think I'm down maybe two or so...I just can't eat much at one time. I'm sure that a weekend of crazy eating would put it back on!

Nope! I'm still a beast. Crying

I'm pretty sure I gained 4 lbs the weekend that DH and I went away from our babymoon. I had my midwife appointment the next day and she weighed me. Since then, I lost it and haven't been able to get it back and keep it.

My midwife is not concerned, as my belly is still growing, and I'm finally seeing an increase in my weight these last 2 weeks.

I've stayed the same, haven't lost any... but haven't gained either. But I know she's growing. I think the big weight gain is behind us and it flucuates from here on out. If you are worried you can ask your doc but as long as LO is still moving around in there I'm sure you are fine.

In the last week I lost one pound. I am only up about 10 pounds total since getting pregnant. My doctor told me to eat more protein and start drinking Carnation protein shakes. Not sure if they are really helping. I can't eat huge meals, cause I get full so fast. At this point it is not too much of a concern, but if it continues into next month, the doctor said we need to check it out.

Your weight will continue to go up and down based on the amount of water you are drinking and the food you have consumed (sodium). i would not worry about it at all.

i weighed myself one night last week and i was 5 pounds heavier than i thought i should be. so i got up the next morning and weighed again....boom...back down 5 pounds. its just water

Ive lost weight the entire pregnancy. Right now I am 10 lbs under pre pregnancy weight. My belly is massive and baby girl measures 2 weeks ahead so she is just taking it all from me! I was a nervous wreck at one point bc I thought something was wrong with me but the Dr. ensured me that as long as baby is growing im just one of the lucky ones good luck

This. My weight has been pretty steady over the past 3 weeks. I'm ok with that and I'm sure my midwife will be too, since her exact words were "gain what you want to gain." My overall gain is good - around 24lbs - so I'm happy. I've lost all my cravings for fast food, anything greasy, or overeating.

Not necessarily losing weight but definitely not gaining as much as I think I should. I'm only up about 15lbs. so far and only have 7 weeks to go. Baby is measuring a bit small so they're keeping an eye on her. I have trouble eating much at this point because I'm full and then I don't want to eat too much late because of heartburn...UGH! But your weight gain sounds healthy.

thanks ladies. right at this point everything is freaking me out. I go to the dr on monday and will have him check things out for sure. glad to know I am not the only one though

I lost a pound and my doctors were not happy. I have GD and they really don't want me to lose anything as it could mean I'm not eating enough. They are monitoring me closely. I'm up a total of 17 so far and only gained18 with my last pregnancy.
