Since I've became pregnant I've lost 20 pounds so far! My doctor said it's good bc I was over weight for my age and height...before pregnancy I weighed 268....now I weigh 248....my bf thinks I don't eat....but I do!....I think it's because I drink A LOT of water....has anyone else had this problem?

    Wow, it never occurred to me that they'd want to deny someone who's overweight! That sucks. Unless the doctor doesn't do high risk pregnancy and he was worried that your weight would put you at risk? With my second baby I lost 25lbs in the firt 12 weeks, plateaued and then gained 20. With this one I lost 9 and have gained back 6 in the last 6-8 weeks (and none of it was from morning sickness). I have been overweight since I had my first son (I gained 55 lbs and then never lost it...ugh!). From what I've seen and read it's just as normal for women to lose weight during pregnancy as it is for them to gain. Chances are you'll start gaining as your baby starts putting on weight.
