They say you lose weight before you give both, i hear its normal but if you feel really concerned about it or if it's really excessive then your doc should be able to say if it's normal or not

I have lost 6lbs in a month and I'm 31 weeks pregnant. Part of it is watching my sugar. My doctor is stoked lol

Im 37 weeks and at my 36 week check up I was a pound more.. So yeah I've been losing but I haven't had an appetite so that's why I'm losing weight.

I don't know how much your losing but I'm 37 weeks and I lost 3 pounds since my last weekly visit and the doctor doesn't seem concerned whatsoever.  Just keep eating well is all you can do I think and try not to stress
