Honestly, I just ate whatever I could keep down! But adding lots of milk and ghee did help, even though now I'm the one trying to lose that weight.

Eat eggs, paneer, and drink milk daily. These really help increase baby weight safely.

Devi Das · Answer

My baby had low birth weight due to placenta issues, so no amount of eating would have helped without medical care. Please check with your doctor to make sure the baby is getting proper blood flow.

I recently delivered a healthy 3.2 kg baby! I ate soaked almonds, walnuts, and drank milk with dry fruit powder twice a day, which worked wonders.

My doctor told me not to stress about the exact weight in scans as they can be off. Just eat simple ghar ka khana and include some sprouts and curd daily.

Focus on eating protein-rich food like paneer, eggs, pulses, and milk. Don't just eat junk food thinking it will increase the baby's weight.

Since I had gestational diabetes, I had to avoid heavy sweets and focus strictly on proteins like eggs and dal for baby's weight. Don't go overboard with high-carb foods.
