I am 9 weeks pregnant and this is my first pregnancy and instead of gaining weight I am losing weight. I haven't had any nausea or vomiting in the past 2 days but I am still losing weight. I am scared that this could affect my baby. Is there something wrong or is this normal ?

Um I just turned twelve weeks and it looks like im losing weight instead of gaining but my belly is getting bigger should I be concerned about this

Yes it's normal to lose weight while pregnant. I lost weight the first trimester and my doctor didn't worry as long as baby is growing. Just eat healthy and stay active! !

The nausea is still there just not as bad as the first trimester. My beggining weight was 182 but 70% of it was in my breats and thighs. Ive lost weight in my stomach on my sides (lovehandles). My stomach is growing and you can see the baby bump but if i continue to lose or maintain the weight im at now around my stomach will it effect the baby since supposedly im supposed to gain my 20 back and plus another 12 for it being the second trimester now?

That happened to me too my first trimester my dr told me as long as u keepin your food down its ok you will gain it back most women do lose weight in first trimester i did til i was almost 20 weeks and im 33 now and gained my a whole 30lb back

I lost 28 pounds in my first trimester due to severe nausea and vomiting. I was diagnosed with Hyperemesis! I've gained 5 of those pounds back and I will be in my 3rd trimester tomorrow. Babies are resilient! So your baby will be fine. My daughter is weighing and measuring perfectly! So, no need to worry Mommy!

As long as your still in your first trimester its not a big deal now if you hit second trimester an your still losing weight then its more scary.

I always loose weight in my first trimester. Nothing to be concerned about. You will gain it back and then some.

In my first trimester I lost a total of 20 pounds. It was very scary. But the doctor didn't seem to be too worried about it. My second trimester, I gained weight accordingly and have a healthy baby boy going into the last trimester. Don't stress. Some of us just lose at first.

I've been the same way - 9 wks. My certified nurse midwife said that just eating what you can keep down is good enough (food, drink, & supplements). And as long as your weight doesn't drop down a lot then it's normal to not gain weight until the 2nd-3rd trimester. But obviously if there's any concerns then check with your doctor first.

I lost about 5lbs in the first trimester. But, I have gained 13lbs in the last 13 weeks. I wouldn't worry about it unless your doctor/midwife mentions it at your next appointment. Eat well! Best wishes.

I lost weight in my first trimester during my first pregnancy. His pregnancy I didn't lose any but I didn't gain any until about 20 weeks.

Is your doctor concerned? How fast did you lose this? 5 pounds isn't much, and you're still early. Most weight gain doesn't occur until later in the second and third trimester.

You never want to intentionally lose weight, but women might in the first trimester due to nausea/vomiting. Depending on how sick you are you could lose 10-20 pounds. I myself lost 25 pounds while pregnant with my daughter. Just try to make sure you're keeping yourself hydrated.
