Thanks everyone for your replies. She'll be
very relieved to read them :) She had a c-sect with 1st babe and is very
focused on having a vag birth with this babe so was reluctant to bring the lack
of weight gain up with her ob.
Regards
Jayne

Your
friend has changed her diet and started exercising, of course she is going to
bebfit. Baby looked fine and she has a nice pregnant belly. I
wouldn't be concerned, she's obliviously has fined down a bit and is to be
congratulated for looking after herself and baby so well.

I was exactly the same in
my last pregnancy. I was my prepregnant weight until about 30 weeks.
Produced a lusty 4kg baby and was back to prepregnant weight a week later. I
think some of us just respond to pregnancy that way, especially if we have
hormone issues and our bodies rejoice to be balanced for the first time
ever. Unless she seems ill or is having weird results from blood tests, I
wouldn't worry, sounds like she's been really taking care of herself with
exercise too.

@ 32 weeks?
I have a friend who is 32 weeks and since
weighing herself 1 month before pregnancy, has actually lost 2kgs from
that point until now. Her doc doesn't weigh her and my friend had no
concerns until others started to comment on her no gain at this
point. When she decided to conceive she was about 20kg over her
ideal weight so she changed her diet for the better and began to walk 30
mins to 1 hour a day in preparation for pregnancy and she thinks this is
why she hasn't gained weight. This is her 2nd pregnancy.
1st pregnancy she gained 14kg but was 20kg less to begin
with.
She has a nice big prego belly but is thinner
around her bum/top of legs/arms than what she was before changing her
diet. She looks great, had very little nausea in early pregnancy and baby
looked fine at 20 week US.
We did some searches on lack of weight gain
in pregnancy and now she is worried. Seems all
negative. She is adament that she hasn't tried to keep her weight
down purposely, only changed dietary/exercise habits for the
better.
Should she be concerned?
