Weight gain:
the amount of weight pregnant women gain varies from woman to woman and even pregnancy to pregnancy in each woman. Your pre-pregnancy weight affects how much you should gain during pregnancy. Here are some guidelines but keep in mind, the numbers don't count as much as the food you eat. If you consume nutritious food in adequate quantities, you'll be eating good enough for your baby. If you gain more than these recommended amounts but have eaten healthy foods, chances are the weight will come off easily and quickly after delivery. Remember - do not diet during pregnancy! Eat wisely!
