Is it okay for a plus size mom (300lbs) to keep losing weight during pregnancy? Currently 18 week.I’m also not feeling baby movements

Question

Answer

Yes. Also a plus sized mom. I have lost about 20 pounds since I got pregnant, and my doctor said it’s fine and I could lose even more and still be fine. I didn’t feel any definitive movements until 25 weeks and now I’m feeling them constantly.

Answer

Talk to your doctor about this. See if he/she can refer you to a dietitian who specializes in pregnant women. My guess is losing weight while pregnant is taken by a case by case basis depending on whether the risks outweigh the benefits for your particular situation. 
Not feeling baby movements at 18 weeks is perfectly normal for a first pregnancy. The average for first movements in first pregnancies is 19-20 weeks. Depending on your placental location it can be later too.

Answer
