Ive lost over 8 pounds since I found out I was pregnant, and I havent gained an ounce. I just don't understand because I have been eating well and I havent hardly had any morning sickness. Is this ok? I have a doctors apt tomorrow. I guess I will find out then, but it bothers me alot. :/ Also, I certainly do have a little baby belly. Everything looks normal. I just don't know.
Yep, you're probably just fine. Most mamas actually lose a little weight during their 1st trimester. Morning sickness would do that to ANY mama. Do double check with the doc, and do keep half an eye on your weight. But don't worry too much. You're growing, so baby's probably just fine. love, mom
Well, maybe you haven't FELT nauseous, but have you been eating normally... or more to the point, have you been eating as if there were two of you??? ((((((hugs))))))) I know telling a pregnant mama not to worry is a little like telling a hurricane to move a little to the east. But truly, if your body is acting "normal," you're probably okay. More often than not, you'll know if there's a problem. love, mom
thanks. I really can't tell if i've been eating enough. I usually don't have much of an appetite, but I do try to make sure I eat good meals, and healthy snacks in between. I guess Ill just have to pay more attention. I feel like I eat a ton, because I am always full. hmm.
lotsa mamas loose weight in the first trimester, not to worry I knew this one girl who hardly showed the whole pregnancy and only gained 10 pounds, and her baby was 7 lbs, and she hardly had any morning sickness. I, on the other hand, couldn't move an inch or I'd puke...and then even laying there, I'd feel like hurling just from the feeling of my pulse. I barely ate anything, and yet I gained 25 pounds in the first trimester!
Oh yeah, and as for the not knowing if you're eating enough... I have been told before that you should not eat like you're eating for two. A baby is pretty dang small, lol I have always been told that I should only be eating about 500 calories more than I was before. But like I was saying above; I hardly ate a thing in my first trimester and I gained a ton of weight. Basically, just eat healthy and stay moderately active and all should be good
my sister she didnt gain a pound until maybe a month ago. she lost alot of wieght and just this past month she has gained about 10 lbs. so as everyone else has said it's pretty normal to not gain or even lose weight in the first trimester. congrats and dont worry so much just eat healthy and stay active. thats one thing i wish people would of told me.
Has your party lifestyle changed? A few of my friends were drinkers before they found out they were preggo~ when they dropped the beer carories they lost weight from that...
ah yes. I was very much a partier. That makes alot of sense, it never even crossed my mind. That probably accounts for at least some of it.
