Should I be worried about weight loss?

Question

I'm 10w4d and just weighed in with a 3 lb weight loss over the past week this morning. I haven't changed my eating habits ( if anything  indulged a bit over Easter) nor worked out more. Worried it's a sign of miscarriage. I don't have any pain or bleeding.  Am I overthinking this?

Answer

Don't overthink that. I'm 13 weeks and lost weight but baby is still perfectly fine. The weight gain will start soon and my doctor wasn't worried at all since I'm still in my first trimester.

Answer

I have lost 17lbs from feb 6 until yesterday. Doc isn't worried. I just try to stay hydrated.

Answer

I lost 35 lbs in the course of my last pregnancy.  I delivered at almost 15lbs under my pre preggo weight. My baby girl was 8 lbs 13 ounces. When I left the hospital none of the clothes I had taken to leave in even fit. I wouldn't worry much about your weight loss unless your doctor thinks that there is cause for concern. Best wishes for you and healthy baby.

Answer

I'm almost 14 weeks and have lost 7lbs from being so sick all the time. My baby is perfectly healthy and kicking away! My doctor said it is fine as long as I'm staying hydrated.

Answer

I wouldn't be worried. It could be a result of your body working overtime with the pregnancy. My last pregnancy I weighed 168 when I concieved and about 150 by 15weeks. I've always lost weight before gaining it because my body is working so hard creating a new being ~
