Tips on gaining weight while pregnant, OB says I need to start gaining more.

Is your belly not measuring like it should?

EAT! lol. Just gotta up those calories. How much have you gained??

@kendraharlee, it measures between 23 and 24 which she's not too concerned about my weight gain but wants me to start focusing on it a bit more since I've barely put anything on. To be fair I'm only 5 ft and weighed 90-92lbs pre baby, I've barely hit 100lbs now and I'm 24 weeks along, my fiancé isn't much bigger😅

@kambam, I do nothing but eat lols, for example I had two dinners last night lmao but I'm just curious if there's any specific food or shake that has helped people or what, maybe that's silly to ask but I figured I would just in case😅

I wouldn't worry too much, honestly. Some women don't gain much at all. I didn't pick up my weight gain until almost my 3rd trimester.

@kendraharlee, True, she's not too concerned but just wants me to take a little more interest and be aware of it so I'm not too worried but definitely want to work on it a little more. Then again I don't typically eat much in the summer since I barely have an appetite due to the heat.

Fatty foods like peanut butter help you pack on weight but eating clean is best. Youre still early. I think around your time I had only gained 12 or 13lb. Weight has no correlation with health of baby unless youre actually starving yourself.

Instead of 3 meals you have to double it. 3 full and 3 small. Plus snacks

@kambam, @kendraharlee, Thank you ladies for these great ideas I'm definitely going to start incorporating more of these things in my diet! It's always been difficult for me to gain weight so hopefully this helps❤

You're welcome 💜

I bet protien and fats help. But I'd do healthy fats like avacadoes
