I've lost probably 4 lbs and I'm almost 17 weeks. However I'm a bigger girl and my doctor would prefer I didn't gain any weight at all. I've only ever really heard problems with weight is if you are just constantly losing and can't gain any and already skinny. I think you'll be fine, most weight is gained in second trimester and you still have 9 weeks to gain! :)
Should I call my doc?
I am 18 weeks tomorrow (yay!), almost half way there! However, I'm concerned, but don't want to bother my doc with every question I have, hoping you mamas can provide some answers. So far I've gained 5lbs and several of my mama friends made comments as to how small my stomach is and how little weight I've gained. I've read articles that say it's extremely important to gain weight for the healthy baby, but mine seems slow on the rise. I'm not dieting, I eat healthy and plenty. Should I be worried or is more to come? Thanks!
