So far in this pregnancy I've not really suffered any MS/nausea. I had like a day last week of heartburn and feeling as though I needed to be sick but couldn't. I've been keeping an eye on my weight (was very weight obsessed prior to this pregnancy) and noticed its went up and down a lot but never over my start weight.

At 4 weeks I weighed 10st 8.8lbs, I've been eating small but regularly and snack very often but I've just weighed myself this morning and I now weigh 10st 3.3lbs (my lightest in 3 years!) meaning a rather big drop. Should I be concerned? Its been the odd lbs lost here and there over the past 4 weeks but I always gained it back! Last Sunday I was 10st 8lbs so not a massive difference from start weight but that means I've lost just under 5lbs in a week?

I have my first mw appointment on Friday should I wait until then to rise my concerns or should I try and contacted her or see my gp? :shrug:
 
I'd say its fine. Probably because you have been eating healthily, a lot of that weight loss may have been water retention. I was 10st 1lb at my 9wk appointment (also my lowest in years!) and am about 10st 5now... But I am an awful eater and I think any normal person would have gained a stone with the amount of sh*t I eat! I know that if I are healthily I would have lost weight too. I also have had no sickness or nausea.
Baby will be getting everything they need from you, try not to worry!
 
I lost 7 lbs in 7 days with a gastro bug - my dr wasn't too concerned just told me to stay hydrated - so I wouldn't worry. It's probably just eating well and water weight - you're probably drinking more water so retaining less - causing the fluctuations xx
 
Sounds fine probably just water weight/bloat youve lost.
I personally dont want to gain a lb but im overweight though. x
