Should I be worried?!

Question

So I'm 16+3 weeks pregnant.. I didn't suffer the rough nauseous thankfully, but since i got pregnant i lost almost 4 kgs.. Though I'm eating well and not doing any exercises.. My husband is really not happy that I'm losing weight and he thinks I'm not eating well.. I'm worrying that it's not a good thing and if it will harm my baby.. So any advice? Btw: I still didn't get to a doctor yet but my first appointment will be on feb 22nd..

Answer

I lost about 10+ pounds and finally gained it back around 22 weeks or so. My Obgyn/MD said its normal

Answer

Both my sisters lost weight through their pregnancy and one of my really good friends is now 17.5 weeks along and has only gained two pounds. Just be cautious that you aren't loosing to much but the average woman is only suppose to gain 20-30 lbs during a pregnancy. Some don't even gain that. Keep eating and when it comes time for your appointment talk to your Dr. Also some woman gain rapid weight because they use "I'm eating for two" now when in reality you are only suppose to increase you daily calorie intake by a couple hundred for the first few months or so. If you are to worries about it then try to gt to the drs earlier. Good luck! Hope everything goes well!

Answer

You're almost 17 weeks.. have lost that much weight without being sick.. and still aren't going to see a doctor till the end of feb? So you had zero first trimester blood work screenings.. urine tests. . Anatomy scans etc? I'd be getting a doctor's appointment long before the end of Feb.
