Weight gain post miscarriage?

We found out a little over a week ago that our pregnancy was not viable I was losing weight in the first few weeks of pregnancy, but over this past week I have gained three pounds! What gives? What a double whammy. I've spent two days mostly in bed and haven't worked out for 8 days, but I'm not eating buckets of lard, bags of chips or handfuls of fries.

I'm sorry to hear that....The weight gain is your body healing itself. Don't stress out, just rest and recover.

I am sorry to hear about this. I agree with the other lady that said its probably your body healing its self and its not sure whats going on yet.

First off, sorry to hear about your loss I gained weight after my miscarriage as well, I think the body doesn't understand what is going on just yet and the hormones get all out of whack. With time it will adjust itself, I think it took about 6weeks for the weight to get back to normal. Right now I wouldn't worry about it, you just need to nourish yourself at this time. >hugz<

I went through it too. And sorry

Sorry for your loss. That's normal. Weight you gained could be mostly due to hormones and your body is still in trauma. Miscarriage can be overly depressing. Chances are your body changes and emotions, you can still gain weight, our metabolism slows down when were in the dumps. Just rest and let yourself heal.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I was there a year ago and had the same thing happen to me. I found that it took about 2 months for things to level off for me. I luckily didn't have to do a DNC which also helped me get back to normal. You will normal off again and get back to normal weight loss again. Allow yourself the time to grieve as well because your body is going through it right now. Add me if you want, i'm still hoping for my rainbow Baby. It helps to know you're not alone sometimes too!
