losing weight in early pregnancy

Hi,  this is my first pregnancy and I'm almost six weeks. I seem to be losing weight,  and wondered if anyone else was experiencing this? I've lost around 5 pounds and no change in diet or exercise.  I weigh less than I ever have before! advice!

I lost about 37 lbs and am hovering now at 38 weeks just under my pre pregnancy weight. Some women do and some women don't. Just make sure to stay hydrated, eat well, and listen to your health professionals.

I lost 30lbs in total at the beginning of my pregnancy due to bad morning sickness but be assured that the weight will start coming back :-) im at 31 weeks and have put back on 17lbs so far. I think it's pretty normal to lose a bit at the beginning! Congratulations hun xx
