Has anyone else lost weight while pregnant?

Question

I’m 24 weeks tomorrow and I’ve lost 23 lbs so far. I’m not trying at all. I’m a little concerned because I thought I would gain. I started at 332.

Answer

It’s generally fine for women with a higher BMI to lose in pregnancy, it’s also not uncommon. You burn more calories pregnant so as long as you aren’t compensating for that extra calorie burn, you lose weight. Typically you are still consuming enough for the baby to grow. Baby gains, you lose. 
I lost in the first trimester and halfway into second, then I started to put some back on as baby beefed up. The day I delivered I was 5lbs more than my pregnancy start weight and after delivery was down around 13. 
As long as Dr isn’t concerned and baby is growing well, it’s all good!

Answer

I’ve only lost weight but physically have gotten bigger. I started at 220 and I’m now at 200

Answer

I’ve gone up and down...as long as your Dr is okay with it, and baby is doing fine I wouldn’t worry too much.

Answer

I staryed ay 243 now im 35 weeks and at 247lbs

Answer

I'm a little less weight but baby is growing great and my uterus etc is measuring on schedule so my midwife isn't worried at all.

Answer

I’ve been steadily going or losing the whole time. Unless doctor is worried I wouldn’t fret, your body is doing a lot of work so it makes sense it might lose weight! Especially if your appetite is smaller as mine has been.
