How much weight should i gain each month during pregnancy?
Im in my 4th month and my weight went up quite a bit this month, now im a little worried im gaining too fast. I just want a rough idea of whats normal per month. How much did you all put on each month?
My doctor said it depends on your starting BMI, but roughly very little in the first trimester and then about half a kilo a week in the later months. Total around 10-12 kg for an average build. She tracked it at every visit so dont fixate on monthly numbers yourself.
It varies a lot per person, so dont compare with others. In my first I gained more in the last trimester, which is normal. Let your gynac guide the number, just eat well and dont go overboard or starve.
Because of PCOS my doctor watched my weight closely, so my target was on the lower side. I cant give a one size number, it really depends on your body. Please go by your own doctors plan na.
