Im 9 weeks and instead of gaining ive actually dropped a kg or two coz I cant eat much with all the vomiting. Bit worried if this is okay for the baby. Did anyone else lose weight early on? pls share.
My gynac said some women dip slightly early on due to morning sickness, then start gaining as the trimesters go. Steady gain later is what they want to see. If you are losing a lot or losing in later months, that needs a doctor check.
I actually lost a bit in the first trimester because the nausea was so bad I could barely eat, it scared me. My doctor said small early weight loss from sickness can happen and to focus on keeping fluids and tiny meals down. Once the nausea eased I gained it back, but I kept her in the loop the whole time.
First time I lost a kilo or two early because of vomiting, totally evened out later. A little dip from sickness is common. But dont assume, let your doctor track your weight at each visit, that is the real check.
