Anybody else loosing a significant amount of weight?

I'm 13 weeks into this venture and I'm a little concerned. I've had 4 pregnancies before this one, and I've lost weight with all of them, it's my normal, but at this point, I've lost more in 13 weeks than I had at delivery with each of my others. (3 kids at home already) My Doctor doesn't seem concerned, after all, I have lost weight with each of my others, and he's been my OB since my second one. I think I just want some encouragement...

With my first baby I lost 30 lbs b4 I got into my second trimester. And in total when she was born I weighed 5 lbs less then when I started. This baby I have only lost about 7 lbs. it changes form day to day but only by about a lb.

Thanks Amber. I've lost 17lbs so far. I guess I am over weight, so maybe that has something to do with it too.
Congratulations on your baby! I wish you both a safe and happy pregnancy.
