Im about 5 months in and already gained a good bit, my gynac hasnt said anything but my MIL keeps commenting. Just want to know roughly how much weight gain is normal through the whole pregnancy. Trying not to stress.
My doctor said roughly 10-12 kg is the normal range for most women if u started at a healthy weight. It depends on ur starting BMI though. She used to weigh me every visit to keep it on track.
I used to panic about this constantly haha. But my gynac said dont count every gram, focus on the baby growing well. As long as u r in the healthy range she said, all good.
I gained around 11 kg first time and 13 second time, both were fine per doc. Dont obsess over the exact number na, every body is different. Just eat healthy and let ur gynac monitor it.
They check ur weight free at every routine visit so u dont need any extra test for this. Mostly 10-12 kg is the talk. Eat nutritious home food, no need for fancy expensive stuff to gain right.
With my GD the doctor was strict about weight gain, she wanted slow steady increase. So for me they watched it closely. Honestly best to follow whatever range ur own doctor gives based on ur health.
