I lost my weight till i was even lighter than i first visit my gynae at wk 8 but he assured my hb that it doesnt affect the baby. But i know for myself that its due to the controlling of blood sugar, carbs intake is much lower. Although i am now only at wk 24++. But i tink if ur gynae doesnt say anyting, its prob ok?

Yes. Apparently when you’re almost due, you tend to lose a bit of weight. It is due to lower levels of amniotic fluid as the baby grows bigger. Just make sure it’s not a huge amount of weight. I lost about 1-2 kg?

Better to check with your doctor.
