Should I be loosing weight?

Hi all,

So I weighed myself this morning and I have lost half a stone? This is pregnancy no 5 but Sadley we had 3 misscarages. I have never been so sick. I am 13 weeks this week but I am worried that if I am loosing weight the baby is not getting all it needs?

I have a scan on Thursday and vet excited : we have already had two scans but can't wait to see how much baby has grown in this one xx

    You should be fine. My doctor says you should only gain between 0 and 5 pounds during the first 20 weeks so you should be fine.

    I lost weight throughout my entire first trimester with my daughter. I believe I lost about 7 pounds. And I've only gained 1 pound this time so far. I have a very limited appetite. My dr never thought it was a problem as long as baby was growing and she did with no problems

    With my first i lost almost 20 pounds. I was very sick with m/s for 9 weeks. I only gained 10 pounds with her. You will be fine. The baby will take what is needs so you will loose weight but baby will grow.

    You should be fine as long as you are keeping fluids down.

    I've lost 3 pounds at least.  I don't weigh myself at home so that was just from the two appts I've had so far.  Try drinking fruit and veggie smoothies if you can keep them down.  If you can't, then just make sure to keep on drinking fluids so you don't get dehydrated.

    Hopefully with 2nd tri approaching for all of us, we'll get some much needed relief!

    I gained a pound and then lost it. I was overweight to begin with and this is my usual during early pregnancy. I had some morning sickness, but it's gone. I gained 21 lbs with #1 and 19lbs with #2. It's not necessary to gain weight at the beginning. For me, a lot of it comes at the end when baby is fattening up.
