I am down 20 lbs and am 10 weeks.  Doc isnt too concerned.  I am eating healthier now that i am eating for baby too plus being nauseous all day every day doesnt help! I also Got the stomsch flu at about 5 weeks so that was a good few pounds.

It is fine. Lots of women lose before they gain. My doc told he he was good with me losing or maintaining until like 28 weeks. I started my pregnancy a little on the heavy side too. Most the the weight your baby gains in later when they start going bigger faster. The begin has more development than rapid growth for the baby.

Losing weight is normal esp if u are nasuseted or not eating well... I lost 5lbs in the first 6 weeks just cuz I didnt have much of an appetite and food just didnt sound good. Just check in with ur doctor at ur next visit
