Losing too much weight...

MissJackieMeri · April 2013

I probably sound like a cry baby... But I feel like I'm losing too much weight and my mind is going crazy! Since 6 weeks I lost 17lbs. I thought I gained 2lbs back but apparently I lost those and 2more. Ive had nausea and vomiting but it ended last week and I hold food down but how am I losing still? When do you start to get worried about losing too much?!

I'm 12w4d. I'm 5'7 and started at 144 at 6w and now I'm 12w at 127

I wouldn't worry, unless your doctor is saying that it is unhealthy. I am 5' 6" and was 125lbs to start.

MY OB told me that any amount of weight loss is fine before 20 weeks as long as you and the baby are ok. I trust her.

Well that's good to know... I haven't seen my doc since 10 weeks and at that time I lost 9lbs but she wasn't worried then. Hopefully 2nd tri I gain some of that back. Thanks for the reassurance. I just don't want to call them if it isn't something to worr

I have lost 30 lbs. I was big to start and my doctor said it isn't an issue. She said the baby looks healthy and mine is due to increased water intake and following a strict diabetic diet. The dr basically said "She's a parasite. &nbs

I've lost 10 pound since finding out at 7 weeks (now 13 weeksand I don't puke often at all) and my doctor said everything is just fine. Baby is growing ahead and is very active. also I'm making sure I take my vitamins and I stay hydrated.
