Sudden weight loss -- 2nd tri

[Dov'sMom]

I am 15 weeks pregnant with #4. I felt movement regularly for about a week and now I'm not feeling it anymore -- but I remember this happening with #3 also, where I felt movement early on but then it would be some days on and some days off.

Over the week, I lost about 4 pounds. I can't think why. Until now, my weight's been mostly stable, with maybe 1/2 pound loss a week. (I'm morbidly obese, so it's okay.) Now I'm worried, though -- could the baby have stopped growing, and the weight been the extra blood volume from pregnancy?

Any insight?

It's possible with your worry about not feeling the movement you have been eating differently.. or the stress affected your digestion/metabolism. 4 pounds isn't that much if you are overweight.. it could just be water weight.

I too felt movement early, then didn't for over a month. I think I was well into the 24th week before I felt it daily. So if it was me I would relax and just try to enjoy each day and obviously your other kids! If you are really worried though.. can you go in to have someone hear the heartbeat? That way you would be reassured it was all good.
