Rapid Weight Gain

Question

Hi mga mommies! 5 months pregnant here, 3rd baby. Ask ko lang, sobrang laki ng ginigain ko monthly. Like, 11lbs this month. Dati akong 129lbs and ngayong 2nd trimester ko, tumataginting na 172lbs na ko! Although maliit naman daw si baby sa tummy ko. Pero ako lang ba yung ganito kabilis lumaki? Baka meron kayo dyang pregnancy diet na pwede i-share? Medyo bumababa na self-confidence ko. Safe kaya magbawas ng timbang while pregnant? Huhuhu #advicepls

Aw mama, 11lbs in a month is quite fast talaga, kaya okay na i-mention ito sa OB mo next checkup para sure lang na lahat okay with you and baby, sometimes rapid gain can be water retention or other stuff na kailangan i-check. A few of my mum friends gained a lot din in second trimester tapos nag-slow down na later, so hindi ka nag-iisa dito! The thing is, you shouldn't intentionally diet or lose weight while pregnant, pero focusing on healthier food choices (more protein, veggies, less sugary stuff) instead of restricting calories actually helps both you and baby. Kaya please let your OB guide you on this one, ate, they can give you a safe plan based on your situation kasi may third baby ka na, the body works differently each time! Sending you hugs, ang glow mo pa rin naman, promise.
