Weight falling off anyone else?

DC2 and I'm losing weight despite being 20 weeks. I now weigh less than when I fell pregnant.

I'm eating completely normally. 3 meals a day, a snack if I'm hungry. I'm very busy with work and my toddler but not really exercising. I'm stressed regarding my house sale and move but never lost weight when stressed before.

Has this happened to anyone else? Freaking out a bit now as have scan next week and my bump is teeny.

I gained 2 stone in total last time and lost half that the week she was born so I don't have a history of putting on weight when pregnant. Certainly didn't lose any.

BMI was 24 at booking so I have some to spare but still freaking out a bit and keen to find someone else experiencing the same!

I am the same. At my 20 week scan I had lost nearly a stone. I am overweight and neither the consultant or midwife are worried about it.

I lost half a stone in the first 12 weeks or so, gradually started creeping up but it probably took me until 20 weeks to get back to where I started before I got pregnant. Midwife said if you lose it at the start you generally put it on quickly at the end,
