Im 22 weeks and already put on like 7 kg, feeling its bohot fast. Whats the normal range overall? dont want to overthink but everyone has a different number to say.
Honestly, don't worry about the weight scale too much. In my first trimester, I actually lost 3 kg because of severe vomiting and morning sickness, but later I gained it back slowly. Your body knows what it is doing, just eat whatever you can digest and stay hydrated.
Usually, doctors suggest a weight gain of 11 to 15 kg if your pre-pregnancy weight was normal. I am focusing on gentle prenatal yoga and a 30-minute walk daily, but only because my gynac allowed it after my scans. Don't stress, focus on being active and eating clean!
They say 10 to 15 kg is normal, but honestly, with all these cravings, it is hard to keep track! I love my cheese parathas and sweets right now, but I try to balance it with fruits too. Enjoy your food, your body is growing a whole human after all!
On average, gaining about 10-12 kg is totally normal and healthy. I gained around 13 kg and had a very smooth normal delivery because I stayed active and walked a lot. Just eat balanced home meals and stay positive!
I completely understand how stressful seeing the numbers on the scale go up can be, I used to cry about it too. But please remember this weight is actually the baby, placenta, and extra fluid. Gaining around 10-15 kg is totally healthy, so please try to be gentle with yourself.
