hi there! it is not uncommon for ladies lose weight in their first trimester due to nausea and poor appetite. my friend lost 7 kg in her first trimester as her morning sickness was very bad plus she was carrying twins. I lost 2kg in my first trimester. Now at 18weeks plus, I gained 1kg from my pre pregnancy weight and honestly when I wear non tight fit clothings, no one can tell I'm pregnant as I do not have a big bump as well.. I would say as long as the baby is growing on track during each doctor's appointment.. there is nothing to worry about. if your MS has subsided now in the second trimester, try to eat better and you'll slowly gain back the weight lost like I did. Take care fellow mommaaaa!!
