weight gain
i've been really paranoid about gaining as i'm already a big girl. i'm 27 weeks and i've nearly put on a stone. i feel really disheartened as i've been really careful about what am eating just the last two weeks i've been craving sugary stuff. has any else experienced this?
I gained 10kg in my first pregnancy, about 5kg left my body after giving birth as my son was 4,3kg and then all the rest that comes out with having a child. I found that when I was breastfeeding the other 5kg went as well. I know we are all different but I wouldn't worry about it. You're growing a human and it is incredible. I gave myself 9 months after birthing him before I even started worrying or thinking about my weight. 9 month in and 9 months out. With the sugar craving, I did have gestational diabetes and I found as soon as I stabilised my blood sugar I didn't crave sugar as much. Eating fiber and protein before carbs etc but again we're all different and it all works different to everyone
