So I am very newly pregnant (suffered a loss at Christmas  and then got pregnant again in Jan).  Anyway I am a bit nervous this time.......I was worried to post here so early but......basically ever since conception which was a little over 2 weeks ago I have been losing weight - like 4 pounds.  Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this......my doc said weight loss is normal in the first trimester but this feels excessive to me.......

Thoughts please!!!???

I lost 35 pounds throughout the first 21 weeks. It will be okay and is quite normal to lose in first tri.

I am 13 wks 4 days pregnant and have lost 20lbs...Its normal. as long as the baby is growing and healthy, most Dr's wont say anything about it. Just hang in there and when/if it becomes a problem your Dr will tell you! Congrats!!!!!

I'm a little over 11 weeks and I've lost probably around 20 pounds.  It's started to slow up in these past couple weeks and I will have days where I will lose a pound, then gain it back the next day, then lose two, it's really weird.  My doctor didn't seem too concerned, she did say once I'm at around 20 weeks they'll probably do growth scans quite a bit and send me to a perinatologist just to get an evaluation. I'm concerned as well because I'm only 5  months out from surgery and this was a huge surprise.  But, I figure I will be concerned when the doctor is, and she hasn't seem too worried yet.  Good luck and congrats.

They say that your weight can fluxuate 5 pounds either up or down from water weight.

I'm 13w2d day, and I've lost 20-25 lbs or so since Christmas.  I have a big of weight still to get to my goal so I'm not concerned. I'm getting in my vitamins, and my protein so Jelly Bean is well fed. And if Jelly Bean gives me a litle liposuction during the pregnancy... Well I'll her every toy in the world lol.
