Weight loss in first trimester?

in 2nd Trimester
between my first trimester check up at my doctors and 5 weeks later at my second appointment I had lost 6 pounds. I had very limited "morning" sickness and still had an active appetite between the appointments. I'm just wondering if anybody else has experienced this.

    I experienced this having lost 4 pounds in my first trimester, but most of this had to do with my morning sickness and my aversion to most foods. My doctor told me it was normal and I'm back to gaining weight now

    I lost 4 pounds in my first trimester, even after I was prescribed anti nausea meds and had a bigger appetite. The dr said its normal but that they'll monitor it and that you usually don't start really gaining weight until late in the 2nd trimester. Now I keep losing and gaining the same pound. Everyone is just telling me to eat ice cream lol :|

    I have lost 12ish lbs since becoming pregnant.  I was really sick and had a little extra fluff to lose, so my doctor wasn't concerned at all.  I think it depends where you start--if you are still concerned, I'd check with your doctor at your next appointment.

    I lost close to 15 lbs since finding out I was pregnant. My doctor told me not to worry about it right now. Changes to what I'm eating and drinking do to food aversion was mostly responsible. Dr assures me the baby is fine and the weight will come. So right now I'll just enjoy the fact that I can wear my clothes longer do to weight loss.
