29 weeks- Losing weight?

Question

I'm 29 +2 and I've been losing weight. 4 weeks ago I had lost 4 pounds, went in for a 2 week appointment and had lost another pound and then went in again today and lost 2 more. Has this happened to anyone? My doctor asked if I have changed eating habits, if nausea came back or if I'm exercising and actively trying to lose weight. All of which no. She didn't say much else just to take sure I'm eating enough and not exercising too much, which I never actually "work out." I had gained 18 pounds and now I'm back down to a little over 10. Anyone else have this happen?

Answer

Yea it's been happening to me as well. I'm 30 weeks and I've gained 9 lbs. My little girl is healthy and on the larger side even, so I'm not too worried about it right now.

Answer

I definitely gained 7lbs this whole 8 months and then went to 6lbs last month. But I had an early growth scan because she wanted to make sure baby's weight was fine and she said he's right on schedule at 4lbs so he's sucking the life out of me...

Answer

I've only gained 3 lbs this entire pregnancy and I'll be 29 weeks Sunday. With my daughter I gained 5lbs when I had her and 7lbs with our first son. And it looks like I'll be doing the same this time around. I weight 200 when I got pregnant, lost 10lbs during 1st trimester, gained it back in 2nd trimester and now I'm at 203. So, technically I've only gained 3 lbs since getting knocked up. And the baby is perfectly healthy and is actually measuring a week ahead and weights 2 lbs 10 Oz which the average at this stage is 2 lbs 4 Oz. So baby is fine!

Answer

I feel like I am losing weight as well. The bump is still growing, but my weight just never changes. Started at an unhealthy 197, lost weight down to 193, and now I am hovering around 197 again at 30 weeks. My last official weigh in was 196.8 but at home I am usually +2-3lbs, and I've noticed I'll be 197 exactly end of the day with food in my stomach. Not worried per say, just think it's a little crazy to not have technically gained anything by 30 weeks. It doesn't make sense with a 3lbish baby inside me lol 😳

Answer

Omg thank you for this thread 🙏🏼 My starting weight was 126, I got to 140 at 26 weeks.

28 weeks now and hovering at 136/137. I think I did get some sort of tummy bug from this raw juice my sister made last week, either that or it's hormones messing with my system.

Other thing I notice is I'm only craving healthy foods not fatty junk like 2nd tri. Plus I think the baby is utilizing up more of my stored energy. Just hoping my appetite comes back soon!!!

Answer

I weighed 113 before and then found myself weighing 134 at 26 weeks then I started losing weight. Now I'm 28 weeks and instead of gaining a pound a week, I'm either not changing or losing. 
So maybe it's normal at this term?

Answer

I was 169 on Friday, and yesterday (Wednesday), I was 163. For me it's because I've been fasting for Ramadan since Saturday. If I keep losing, then I'll call my midwife. I'm 31w1d. I'm now at +9.2 since beginning of pregnancy.

Answer

I am 30 weeks and just now back to my starting weight after losing 16lbs early on. As long as baby is continuing to grow and you are eating normally and drinking water, you should be fine.

Answer

I'm 30w and lost 20lbs during the first trimester and haven't gained anything since. They said the baby is measuring perfect so they aren't concerned.
