weight loss ?

In the first and most of second trimester I lost 30 pounds. Now at 24 weeks I'm able to eat a lot and keep it in. Yay I know. But I am still losing weight! No matter what I eat or drink I cannot gain weight. I weigh all of 102 pounds and look like I'm not even pregnant. Anyone else have this problem?? Any tips? Maybe there's some I have not tried. I've tried ensure, protein shakes, protein powder, weight gaining shakes, I'm on bedrest so I can't exercise at all. I'm out of ideas..

Same thing happened to me! I lost 26 pounds. Couldn't really eay till 5 1/2 months. I'm due in a week and baby is perfectly healthy and growing on target. Unless your doctor says something about it you're fine. They'll monitor baby

Drink smoothies with just fruit, milk and full fat yogurt. Or add stuff like peanut butter. They're pretty healthy but also quite rich, and you get to enjoy them now.
