Increased Metabolism Pregnancy

increased metabolism pregnancy
17 weeks pregnant and still not putting on weight? Any other women in this predicament?

I found out I was pregnant at 8 weeks. During that time I had already lost 10 lbs and I didnt know why. After I found out i was pregnant I tried to put on weight and it still hasnt come on, I have since lost a total of 17 lbs and its just falling off. My husband is a doctor and he said its because my metabolism has increased and also my blood flow has increased which promotes weight loss. I want to know if anyone else is or was having problems putting on weight during a pregnancy. I never would have thought I want to put on weight but I am sorta desperate. I am eating all the time and I even added more potatoes and stuff to my diet including ensure drinks. (reccomended by my doctor and husband). I need advice or peace of mind from other women in this situation. Thanks and happy new year, everyone!!!
well I was 5 ft 6 and 202lbs pre pregnancy

and then I dropped to 191 at 8 wks pregnant

now I am 184 at 17 wks pregnant.
thanks everyone

I am actually having the same problem!!! I am 16 weeks almost 17 and have so far lost 8 lbs. My doctor keeps telling me not to worry but it is really hard not to!!! I have been eating at least 3000 calories a day because I am desperately trying to put on weight!!!!! I was just felt better knowing someone was going through the same thing….maybe it really is normal…
good luck to you!
