Roadster73 agony auntI lost nearly 2 stone when pregnant, your body is running on food & energy for u plus the baby so you need to eat a few extra calories, I did this by eating smoothies & ice cream, dispute this I still lost weight?? I would casually mention this to u r midwife, she will make sure all is healthy with u & baby... Which I am sure it is!!

Good luck 4 u & baby

Ps get lots of sleep while u can lol

I am overweight and 12 weeks pregnant. Since I found it I've been eating healthier. So far I have lost 16 pounds. I am healthy and baby is healthy and blood work was perfect. The only explanation is because my eating habits have changed I have lost weight. Talking with my mother she told me same happened to her while she was pregnant, she lost around 45 pounds. Her doctors were concerned but what I can say: here I am 35 years later. TG, Ann Arbor Michigan

k_c100 agony auntWell regardless of whether you are pregnant or not, losing 2 stone at any time is not good unless you are seriously overweight! You need to go to your doctor ASAP and get yourself checked out!

How far along in your pregnancy are you? And have you been purposefully trying to lose weight or has it just happened on its own? And also, what are your eating habits like?

If you could give us a bit more information we will be able to provide some better advice. But no matter what advice you get on here, you must seek professional medical advice.
