Question

Gaining, then loosing weight?

I'm about 8 weeks pregnant, and I had gain 6lbds since I found out I became pregnant. All of a sudden, I'm loosing weight. I've been sick throughout the few weeks so, I don't think its that. Thanksgiving (eating a lot) was just a few days ago. I'd figure I'd gain weight.
No lifestyle changes.
But tmi I have had sex more,
But that's never made me loose weight,
Is this normal? Should I go to the hospital?
I have a doctor apt the 12th,
(I have no major pains, and I've only lightly spotted two times)

I wouldn't go to the hospital, but I would mention it to your obgyn at your next visit. I lost weight in the first trimester in all 3 of my pregnancies due to morning sickness.

See what your doc says and follow his/her advice.

Best of luck to you and congratulations!

Totally normal hun if you had morning sickness your probably not eating as much. Are you throwing up as well? Just make sure you mention this to your on and I wouldn't go to the er unless your unable to hold anything down now if that's the case it makes things different. Your baby is getting nourishment if your able to hold food and drinks down even if you throw up time to time. The weight thing seems normal and non threatening how you described it.
