I lost weight with both of my prgnancies and nothing wrong with either of my children now 3 years and 8 months. With my daughter I actually only gained 3 lbs and then lost 18 by the end of my prgnancy and with my son, more recently I lost 7lbs my 1st month 8lbs my second and 7lbs my third then I plateaued to the end of my pregnancy. I wouldn't worry if everything comes out fine on the ultrasound and your doctor is aware of your weight gain, or lack thereof. At Wed, 5 Mar 2003, Elle wrote: >
