A member asked:

17wks prego n have lost 7lbs i'm not overweight so is this normal

Obstetrician: I don't feel that unintended weight loss during pregnancy is advisable especially seeing that you are not overweight to begin with. I think you should discuss this with your obstetrician and appropriate tests like thyroid function and blood sugar will be checked.
