Dieting whilst pregnant Has anyone got any tips on dieting whilst pregnant? Any good diets? Well Healthy eating I…

I had gestational diabetes in my last pregnancy so I had to go on a much healthier diet. You could try eating like a diabetic? Cutting down on carbs and increasing veg and protein

Thanks ladies, I'll just try and eat healthier! No trips to the shop in the eve for sweets and chocolate ?

I followed slimming world pregnant (extra a and b choices) if not in classes. Only plan the midwives support - however was told not to diet during pregnancy as can be dangerous for baby and you xx

Just make healthy choices where you can. Don't cut back your calories x

While I was pregnant with Bethany, I cut back on junk food, ate more fruit, and did light exercise several days a week instead of intensive stuff a couple of times a month. I didn't lose weight at any point but only gained 21lb throughout my pregnancy (I'd started at 11st7lb)

The main thing I found was that I could wear pre pregnancy clothes again 5 days pp, and by the time my maternity leave ended I was a stone lighter than when I conceived.

One thing you shouldn't do is drastically reduce your calorie intake. Healthy food and exercise is always best and works well together

Yeah slimming world is good when pregnant, although just making sure you have a good balance diet is best, drinking lots of water is good (although I know that's hard with a baby resting on your bladder ?) x

It's difficult to be healthy 100% of the time. Especially with morning sickness. Sometimes you just don't want to eat fruit and veg.

If your at a stage you feel okay, I'd just cut out as much processed foods and possible and cook with fresh ingredients. Not exactly a diet but healthy for you and baby.

I think slimming world is the diet midwifes recommend.

Slimming world is good whilst pregnant as nothing is off limit.
