Its very normal, if your doctor was worried they would like you know. When you hit the last three months they will watch it more and want you to have a steady gain in weight as the baby will grow fast ♡ Enjoy this time

I have the same problem. When i was about 6 weeks pregnant i was 136. My second app at 8 weeks i dropped to 133 and now 11 weeks i dropped to 131. I feel like im eating enough food and i do feel getting bigger. My counselor said that it was probably because im eating healthier because the baby has grown and its healthy. And besides i left all the junk food and drinks and started focusing more in veggies, fruits and water etc.
