weight management during my pregnancy.

 hi everyone.

i am on a program called Weigh - Less. but not to loose weight but, more to control how much weight i put on and try and limit it to 10kgs or less. I am considered an obese pregnant and really don't want to put on 20kgs like my first two pregnancies. am i being selfish?

No i dont think your being selfish at all its far healthier to exercise and eat properly during pregnancy i gained way to much during my first pregnancy so the second time around i was determined not to so i was healthy most of the time except weekends and i did exercise 4 x a week she is now 4 months old and im back to pre preg weight i gained about 43 lbs!

that is so great to hear. i come from a small town and ppl i have told think i am doing something terrable to my baby.

thanks for sharing. 

I was overweight during my pregnancy. I was so scared of putting on more weight. I have high blood pressure and was afraid I was going to have cardiac problems.  My doctor said she would allow me to gain as much as 30 pounds!!  I was shocked! I am 5'10 and weighed a little over 300 pounds. I thought she was crazy!

I didn't eat anything out of the ordinary. I just ate what we always ate for dinner, didn't go crazy with sweets (which I love!!). I could not even walk, because I was on bedrest off and on during pregnancy.  I did not gain 1 pound!! I stayed the same the whole pregnancy and when I went for my 6 week check up I was 35 pounds lighter!! I have never seen anything like it!!  The doctor was fine with it-she said I was eating just fine and the baby would take whatever she needed!

You are doing just fine. Don't listen to anyone else!!!

Not gaining enough weight during pregnancy can be just as dangerous. A growing fetus needs proper nutrition for healthy growth. Dieting and restricting food intake can pose serious risks to the unborn baby, including low birth weight. Pregnant women need to avoid becoming obsessed about weight gain. Unfortunately, the super model pregnant moms who seem to bounce back a week after the baby is born don't help.

While dieting isn't recommended, you can control weight gain with a healthy diet and regular exercise. It's important to meet your baby's nutritional needs while watching for excessive weight gain. I had to learn to do this after my second pregnancy. I craved hot wings and french fries. I indulged this craving way too often and ended up gaining 40 pounds. Losing that weight was difficult. When I finally did lose it, I found I was pregnant with my third baby. I vowed not to go crazy with food again.

its the post which written well which is very easy to understand
