Worried Not gaining weight 6 Months

Worried Not gaining weight 6 Months

I am 6 Months pregnant and gained weight in the first 3 months of pregnancy but then i lost the weight i gained plus more.. My stomach is measuring 26 weeks like it should be. They are sending me for a Ultrasound tomorrow to see if the baby is measuring right.. Heart rate and everything else is normal.. Is there any questions that i should be asking them to look for. And any works of encouragment that this has happened to someone else as well

Thanks
Michele

I wouldn't worry, it's pretty normal actually.  I didn't gain anything with either of mine till 6 months along, and then all I did was put on the weight I lost for quite awhile.  I lost 15 lbs. to start with both and barely made it back and a little over each time.  Both of my little guys were big babies and very healthy at birth.  Make sure you are taking your prenatal vitamin and stay hydrated, the weight will pack on soon enough.   Good luck at your appt., I'm sure your Dr. is taking great care of you.  As long as they are not concerned I wouldn't worry, you may just be one of the lucky ones who doesn't need to lose a lot of weight after baby.

Don't worry, I'm 32 weeks and I've only gained 3 pounds.  Baby is measuring fine so my OB isn't worried.  I eat all the time but I'm just not gaining.
