Weight

Hi ladies, hope you’re all well. I don’t know if I’m just being silly and overthinking things but since I’ve been pregnant I have lost almost a stone. I’m 18 weeks tomorrow and I definitely have a bump but I’m a little scared that the losing weight maybe be to do with the baby not growing? I’m type 2 diabetic so I have been very conscious of what I have been eating since I found out I was pregnant so I’ve cut out sugar completely and have been having less carbs so maybe it’s to do with that? But I’m just unsure at the moment. Did anyone else do through this? X

I lost 2 stone + with my previous pregnancy due to HG, and she was perfectly healthy and fine. You've said you've cut out sugar and less carbs so it's honestly probably just your change in diet. If any concerns always speak to your midwife.

I lost quite a bit this time and I don’t have diabetes or anything. My baby was born on 50th centile

I lost almost 10kg during the first half of my pregnancy as I was vomiting loads until ablut 25 weeks, my little girl was 8lbs 3oz when born so never effected her growth
