Hello, this is very unusual. Try to take weights on calibrated digital weighting machine, that also to be same one. Compare last reading with today’s reading to rule out that initial weight was wrong. Also check your sugar to rule out diabetes. That apart baby is growing on his own with its resources, so it might not affect baby. Get your Sonography done at least 3 weeks apart and get growth graph of your baby.

A weight loss of 4 kgs is not good in pregnancy. Visit a gynaecologist for assessing the cause of weight loss and growth of the baby
