Medical Monitoring: It is difficult to say from the info you provided. It is important that you follow up with your doctor as soon as possible. Having a plan about when and how to check your sugar levels could be helpful. But again, you need to see your doctor to asses the weight loss, and also perform other tests in weight loss during pregnancy.
