Weight loss 14 weeks pregnant

[Nellie1209]

I’m currently 14 weeks pregnant today and I’ve just weighed myself after not weighing myself for just over 2 weeks thinking that I’d have gained a little weight. I’m now visibly showing and eating more than ever, my nausea seems to have passed yet I’m still losing weight which has been happening throughout my pregnancy. It’s not a huge amount this time, it’s only a 1.5lbs but I’m concerned as all the guidelines say I should now be gaining weight. Has anyone else experienced this?

That happened to me with my first dc, lost quite a bit of weight and only started gaining weight at around the 20 week mark.

@Tosnoreornottosnore that’s reassuring. I’m not sure if it’s muscle mass I’m losing as I was very active before and whilst I am still active it’s not as much due to the extreme tiredness. Just out of interest, did you end up having a boy or a girl?

My eldest was a girl

I had this also with DS. Terrible sickness, nausea but the worst bit was food aversions, literally went off everything except toast and Coco pops which was a struggle to even eat those some days.

I lost about 1.5 stone in total up to about 15 weeks, when the symptoms finally subsided. My weight then plateaued and I started to gain it back slowly from about 20 weeks also. I was only just back to my pre pregnancy weight at 41 weeks pregnant and DS was born at 8lbs. My midwife wasn't concerned as my pre pregnancy weight was the higher side of the 'overweight' BMI range. He was born a healthy baby and is absolutely fine. He's now 2.5 years old and full of beans!

I'm currently 11 weeks pregnant with my 2nd and the same thing is happening. I'm down roughly 16lbs and have awful sickness, nausea and food aversions again.

I've Recently had my twins and the whole pregnancy I never gained weight I lost weight but consultant didn’t have any worries about it
