Im in my 5th month and already gained quite a bit, MIL keeps saying im eating too much. Just wanna know whats actually normal yaar, how much did u all put on by the end?
See, weight gain depends a lot on your pre-pregnancy BMI, so there is no one number for everyone. I kept a simple tracker on my phone and checked once a week on Sunday morning. Don't waste time comparing with others, just eat healthy meals and let your doctor confirm if the growth is fine.
Yaar weight gain to hona hi hai when those midnight pani puri and samosa cravings hit! I just enjoy my food and dont look at the scale too much. As long as baby is healthy, 12-15 kgs up and down is totally fine na.
For me, weight gain was a bit tricky because of my thyroid issue. My gynac tracked it closely and adjusted my daily medicine dose accordingly. Just make sure you are getting your regular tests and checkups done on time, doc will guide u based on your reports.
Honestly I got so scared when I gained like 12 kgs by my 7th month, I thought something is wrong. But my doctor said it is totally fine and normal. Some put on 10, some even 15-18 kgs. Don't stress, our body knows what it is doing!
Every body is blessed in its own way, so don't worry about the scale numbers. Just focus on positive thoughts, eat good home cooked food with love, and take proper rest. Trust the process and pray for a healthy baby, everything will be perfect.
