Im 8 weeks and instead of gaining ive actually lost a little weight, mostly bcoz of vomiting and no appetite. Thoda worried if this is normal. Did anyone else lose weight early on?
Listen, if you are throwing up daily, weight will obviously go down a bit. But if you are losing weight rapidly or can't keep water down, go straight to your doctor.
Yes, in the first trimester my weight actually dropped because of vomiting, and mummy was so worried! But she kept feeding me small portions and it got normal later.
Many moms actually lose 1-2 kgs in the first 3 months because of severe nausea. Just focus on hydration, but if weight drops too much, discuss with your doctor.
Weight loss in the first trimester is extremely common due to morning sickness and food aversion. Don't stress, you will easily catch up on weight in the second trimester.
Please stay positive, your body is doing wonderful work. If you lose a little weight in the beginning due to nausea, it is normal, just keep taking your vitamins and pray.
