Q: Pregnant: I've Lost 15 Pounds

Well I go to the doctor's friday, finally, and the first thing I'm gonna tell him is that I've lost 15 pounds. I can't keep anything down, I'm trying really hard to eat but when I do I just throw it up. It's really horrible, I hope he can give me something to help this. This is a time when I should be gaining weight it really worries me that I've lost so much so quickly. Sorry about complaining I'm just having a really down day. Sad

My best friend's body literally tried to reject both of her pregnancies. She had to take Fennergan and Azamet her ENTIRE pregnancy. SHe lost 24lbs in the first 3 months.

Of course, she was hospitalized for dehydration numerous times (for BOTH pregnancies) and it was a HORRIBLE experience. SHe had to be tube fed in order for her to get the nutrition that her and her babies needed.

SHe and her boys are FINE now!

Good Luck and I hope you start feeling better!!

You don't say how much you weigh. That can be a big factor. If you are underweight, for example, it can be detrimental for you. If you are overweight though, it isn't as critical. But always watch for dehydration.

A lot of women lose weight in early pregnancy and gain it later. I hope your doctor gives you something to help ease the nausea!

Good luck at your appointment.

I am overweight, and by the time I had my son, Chandler, I had lost a total of 62 lbs during my pregnancy. So, if you have a little weight that doesn't hurt to loose, do not worry. Chandler was fine when he was born, he weighed in at 7 lbs 4 oz and is very healthy. Good luck and I hope that you feel better soon.

I'm alittle overweight, normally losing 15lbs would be a really great thing but not now. I went to the appointment and the doctor gave me Fennergan. It doesn't seem to be working though, I'm still getting sick. He said that if I still can't hold anything down by the next time I see him I'm gonna end up in the hospital. Which isn't suprising, maybe it'll help me feel better. Thanks for the replys.
