hihi,
any mummies care to share what is your weight gain during pregnancy and what kind of diet taken

in my 24 weeks now, i nvr gain any weight, i belong to the overweight range. baby weight measure is 740 gram.

BMI
Weight Status
Below 18.5 Underweight
18.5 – 24.9 Normal
25.0 – 29.9 Overweight
30.0 and Above Obese

BMI is calculated from body mass (M) and height (H). BMI = weight / (Height x Height), where weight = body mass in kilograms and height = meters

i'm also in the overweight category. I've not gained any weight and from my last gynae appt, I have lost 1kg. but doc says not to be alarmed cos I have STORE for the baby to use.. hahha. he says at as long I gain between 5-10kg throughout the pregnancy, I'm safe. :D

eat healthy, overweight mummies tend to have gestional diabetes. i nvr gain any weight yet, although i eat alot recently. i onli snack on wholemeal bread n oats w/ milo(w/o milk or sugar)

btw i got gestional diabetes, now control my diet on less carb n sugar intake. but i still got alot of food to eat. lucky i dun have sweettooth.
