Losing weight

[ChocLover]

I'm only at 5 weeks and I'm losing weight. I think I lost about 2 pounds this week.

Is that ok? I'm eating more than I usually do but I'm also on thyroid medication for an under active thyroid and recently my tsh dropped quite low (still in normal range - before it was a bit above normal).

I'm still in a healthy weight range.

i feel like i am eating less and losing weight as well
i think everyone and every pregnancy is different and it varies throughout your pregnancy as well
im not worried

Weight loss early on in a pregnancy is ok. Your doctor will monitor it throughout and will let you know if you need to change anything in your diet or medication.
I've actually lost a little weight myself, but I can definitely stand to lose a couple pounds.

I always lose lots of weight in early pregnancy due to food aversions and nausea and as long as I'm taking my vitamins the midwife is happy enough. I've got lots of weight to spare right enough! Last pregnancy I was 7lbs lighter on the day I gave birth than I was before pregnancy.

Ahh .. I'm only 47kg so I don't think I can lose too much! But yeah I suppose my OB and endocrinologist should be able to tell me when it becomes a problem

I have lost about 5kgs (not sure what that is in pounds) weighed myself the day i went to thailand (baby was made in thailand hee hee) and today i am 5kgs lighter 8 weeks later, wearing a winter dress i have not fitted into for years. I find i can only eat a little at a time and am hardly hungry at all, taking vitamins though so assume baby is getting what it needs..
