I got in trouble today...

At my 16 week appointment for losing weight again. I was 187 at 8 weeks, 184 at 12 weeks, and 176 today at 16 weeks. I had the same thing happen with my son. I have been sick longer this time and the GD diet has helped I am sure too.  

On the bright side I finally got to hear baby's heartbeat this time. It seemed like it took forever because it kept moving away from the Doppler. The dr. Was getting pretty frustrated. Heart rate was in the low 150's. 

2 weeks until our a/s!

I lost weight with DD for the longest time too. I'm loosing weight this time as well. I have an appt on Wednesday so we'll see if I've started to gain yet or not. I feel like LO is getting huge so I'm guessing I've gained something!

sometimes when your a little overweight to begin with, you lose weight the first few months. I lost 7lbs from wks 7-13 (im at 185 right now). I had my 16wk check up today and still have a net loss of 6lbs. She said everythings pretty stable, and to not really worry...I shouldn't be gaining any weight until the 3rd tri.

i wouldnt worry about 11lbs... if it was more than 15, i'd begin to worry. If you need help gaining, drink some protein drinks, either in the morning or at night.. try slim fast, carnation instant breakfast or ensure.

I am not worried about it but they act like I am trying to lose which I am not.  I was pretty overweight to begin with - I am only 5'2". I have had ms up until last Friday and still feel nauseous sometimes. I also changed to the GD diet 3 weeks ago so the change in diet has not helped. My ob with my son was happy when I lost some and told me I should only gain that back the whole time.
