weight loss

does anyone know how much weight lost is too much during the first trimester? I'm eight weeks and I've lost 12lbs. I'm not too thin or overweight to begin with, just average. I'm hoping it's ok.

When I went in for my appointment today, I had lost 6lbs since last week! My doctor said that it was not much of a concern in the first trimester and suggested that in addition to my prenatal vitamins that I might also consider a DHA and a folic acid supplement. Good luck and congratulations, hope you are feeling better soon.
