Gain Weight Slowly

One of the most crucial things you can do while pregnant is to gain enough weight to support your growing baby and have a healthy pregnancy.

As you and your unborn child grow, it is ideal to aim for steady weight gain during pregnancy. It has been suggested that you gain 25 to 35 pounds when pregnant. However, that range only applies to persons whose body mass index (BMI) is within the "normal weight" range pre-pregnancy. However, keep in mind that each person's weight increase will look a little different because no two bodies are exactly the same. Your doctor will give you guidance on how much weight to gain. It's crucial to keep in mind that everybody needs to gain weight in order to sustain a healthy pregnancy, so don't obsess with it.
