Im in my 5th month and the weighing scale is climbing every visit, thoda tension ho raha hai. My MIL keeps saying eat for two but i dont want to put on extra. How much gain is actually ok and normal yaar?
I had thyroid issues so my weight shot up very quickly in the first few months. Definitely keep checking with your doctor and get your blood tests done regularly to monitor everything.
My mother used to tell me to eat extra ghee rice, but I made sure to check the ideal weight range with my doctor. Gaining steadily is healthy, so don't worry.
Absolutely! I gained around 11 kgs and stayed active with light walks, which really helped me during my normal delivery. It's all about healthy stamina.
My saas kept telling me to eat for two, but honestly my doctor said normal weight gain of 10-12 kgs is more than enough. You don't need to double your food, just focus on healthy stuff ghar pe.
Beta, weight will naturally increase as baby grows. Focus on having dry fruits, milk, and light home-cooked meals instead of worrying about the numbers.
Weight gain is necessary but sudden jumps can sometimes be a sign of gestational diabetes, which happened to me. Keep an eye on your sugar intake and follow your gynac's diet chart.
Please don't stress too much about the scale right now. Every body is different and handles pregnancy uniquely, so just focus on nourishing yourself and baby.
