Weight loss

I'm almost 35 weeks. in the past few days I've lost like 5-6 pounds. I was really sick and since getting better I haven't been able to eat much or hold it down. I haven't gain much, almost 20 pounds with this pregnancy. I'm so worried that with being sick my daughter is lacking too. Shes been very active so thats not a problem. I don't see my doctor for another week so I was just wondering if any of you girls have gone through the same thing.

My question is:
Will my weight loss take weight away from my baby.

Re: Weight loss

i would definitely call your OB given your recent weight loss, just to be on the safe side. but i wouldn't worry too much about your weight gain so far... i also have gained only 20 pounds total, and my baby is totally normal in size. many women on here have gained even less and have gone on to have perfectly normal babies.

Re: Weight loss

I'm sure your little one is just fine. Fluids are very important to keep in and weight loss can be common in the final weeks of pregnancy. I too have lost 4 lb. Don't worry too much but express your concerns to your doc!
