Lost 3 pounds??????

Ummm THATS weird!   I swear if you ladies saw the way I have been eating over the last few weeks I'm sure I would get beat by all of you!! I gained only a couple of pounds in the very beginning, but yesterday and this morning I am back down to pre-preg weight! 170!!   Thats exciting even though I don't know how it happened. I dont dump so sugars and fats have been my best friends over the past few weeks!   No complaints though!!   :)

 For my 1st trimester, I ended up being -4lbs.  This trimester, I've gained 8lbs and have not gained a pound more.  My mom and friends tell me it looks like I'm still losing.  I eat every couple of hours but no movement from the scale.  I have my 20 week check up this week and my anatomy scan, so hopefully the baby is growing ok. Due to low weight gain, I will be getting monthly ultrasounds to check the growth of the baby starting this month.

The good thing, my baby bump FINALLY appeared!  I got strange looks at the grocery store yesterday when I was looking for my husband's favorite beer!

I wish! I've gained 9 lbs and we have the exact same due date. I can't wait to yell at my surgeon for telling me I wouldn't gain much, if any, weight.

wait until you give birth and start to breastfeed.  I lost 12 lbs throughout my pregnancy, then lost another 20 when I gave birth and I am still losing now.  When I gave birth I weighed 172 and I now weigh 143. 

I think the most important thing is that we are eating healthy then the rest will follow.

Good luck to you and keep up the good work......

... if I didnt like you I'd hate you right now...

Sounds like things are going great for you and your little one.

lol... You know I thought of you when I posted this.  I said to myself PrettyPixieGirl is not going to be happy about this (after reading your post).  Sorry!

Hope your are doing well.  Wanna see pics of your little one. 

Hey Channel!  up/down 3 lbs... not a biggie at all.  you're a healthy amazing God-loving woman.  This is your miracle and you and DH are expanding your family in such a beautiful way.

Big hugs my friend!

Hey there! I totally echo Maryn! 3 lbs is not a big deal at all ... You're fine. Lots of women lose weight in their first trimester, and I always seem to find it, and then some! Ha! Like Maryn said, you are SO blessed and your body will do just what it needs to! Don't worry! :-)

good deal!!  they say you shouldn't really gain weight until the second trimester anyway.  My goal is to not put on any weight until then.  Right now I am eating normally and I am down 2 lbs from last week.  total opposite of my last pregnancy where I was up 10 lbs in the first 6 weeks lol!

Hi

Yeah it's all good. I'm 29weeks and have gained a whole 6lbs. Eliana is doing great she is small but that could just be her ( I'm 5'2) I'm busy on Wednesdays, Thurdsdays, & Fridays that I will lose about 2-3lbs then I work for the next 4 days to get it back on. I have more u/s than normal just to watch her growth and she is following her own but still going up nicely

Best wishes
