Has anyone lost weight in early pregnancy?

Question

I’m almost 12 weeks and I don’t know if it’s just because I am eating healthier now, but I am not gaining weight. My belly has gotten bigger but I’ve gotten thinner. Is this normal?
P.S. please no weight loss shaming, everyone’s body is different. I was a string bean when I was younger

Answer

I ended up losing 45 lbs with my son out of no where my dr said it was normal I didn’t change anything in fact I ate so much more. With this one I’m also losing weight I think that’s just how my body works during pregnancy

Answer

I’m 8 weeks 4 days and have lost 3.5 pounds. I’ve been nauseous but not throwing up. I’ve definitely been gravitating towards healthier foods though.

Answer

My first pregnancy I lost weight in the first trimester. This pregnancy I’m 5 pounds lighter than my I was when I got pregnant last time and I haven’t lost or gained. It’s totally normal not to gain much in the first trimester.

Answer

I went to the doctor today and I had lost 4pounds since the last appointment a month ago. She didn’t seem to concerned as long as I was eating and drinking enough. I told her I was eating healthier and trying to exercise more, and that the waist bands were getting tighter. But, I’m also considered overweight to begin with 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

I have lost some weight. Skinny to begin with but my morning sickness is so bad.

Answer

I don’t think anyone will weight shame you here...
I lost 10lbs my first pregnancy because I was puking so much. This pregnancy I have gained 0.5lbs so far.

Answer

It’s totally normal, momma. You’re not alone! With my son I didn’t lose weight in the first trimester, I stayed the same weight. This go round has been different and I’ve lost a little over 5lbs. I haven’t had much of an appetite and my stomach is always upset/in knots, which makes me not want to eat. When I do eat, I find that I don’t eat as much before I’m full. Now that I’m getting closer to the second trimester I’m started to feel a little better everyday.

Answer

With my first pregnancy they told me I had lost weight at the end of my first trimester. It was because I was so sick and throwing up all the time, but it’s very common in first trimester! Your doc will let you know if they think you need to try eating more, etc!

Answer

Thank you all this has been comforting.
