I'd still find a pregnancy clinic to see an ultrasound to make sure everything is going ok.

You should definitely go! But I get ur situation. I lost weight to at the beginning of my pregnancy, probably from vomiting.

In your area there may be other temporary medical programs that you can apply for that will approve you immediately in my area its called "baby your baby" Google around or even talk to your doctors office they may know of a program that you can get on other than medicated that is immediately available

Medicaid will backpay 3 months, you should really try to get into the doctor as soon as you can. It's best to get prenatal care right away.

i didnt even go to the doctors till i was 24w. weight fluctuation is normal as long as the babys healthy. itll begin to even out and climb

Same problem but I have been to the doctor almost 2 months ago now I'm waiting for medicaid to kick in! My weight has been fluctuating I finally gained 4 lbs and I'm 15 weeks... it's scary cause you don't know what the baby is doing!

I'd get in as soon as you can but I don't think it's bad.
I lost 12 pounds and didn't start gaining it back until maybe 25 weeks
I've now gained that 12 back and 5 more so it's ohkay. As long as you and your baby are healthy, weight fluctuating is normal.
