Pregnancy Health & Nutrition

So I stupidly got on the scales today and found out I've gained 1st 5lbs. I feel like this is a hell of a lot. I'm currently 28+4. My bump is huge but I don't feel like the rest of me has gained loads. Is this a lot to have gained so far??? Like I say, my bump is pretty big....

Me and my partner want another baby, I had an emergency c section 2.5 years ago.. I’m Petrified of having a planned one, I’m scared I’ll die or something just looking for reassurance! I’ve gained weight and I’m technically morbidly obese I’m just so scared!

It's all kicked off over the last 2 days. Baby got scanned today as belly was measuring small, his estimate weight is 66th percentile but his belly is 96th The risk here is diabetes, and I feel so dreadful. They didn't test me before as I had no risk factors but now it's like god is it my fault? Did I get too fa...

My baby will be 7 months next week and I weighed him this morning for the first time since 5 months, he has not gained any weight in that time, in fact he’s lost a few ounces. I’m breastfeeding and introduced BLW at 6 months though obviously he’s not eating loads, he’s doing well. Baby gained a lot of weight quickly...

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or what I should be concerned about but my 3 months old didn't even gain 1kg since birth. Doesn't reach 20oz a day of milk drinking and only once the doctor mentioned that the centile dropped. Health visitors are happy with her weight but I'm not. In 2 weeks gained 20grsms I think i...

Has anybody ever used these for your babies

I'm so sorry if this post triggers anybody. It's not my intention to do so. Before I got pregnant, I always struggled to put on weight. I was at my heaviest of 116 pounds when I found out I was expecting. I gained enough weight while pregnant and absolutely loved how my body looked. Well, after I gave birth I lost ...

I gained 14 ibs throughout my pregnancy and I loss 7 within the last 2 weeks. My doctor said that’s normal doesn’t seem normal to me.

I haven’t weighed my LG since her 10 month check up and I weighed her today and she hasn’t really put a lot of weight on in 5 months. She was always 91st percentile and is now on the 75th. Was 10.06kg at 10 months and 10.50kg today at 15months. Is this normal as she is moving around a lot or should I contact the HV?

What weight did everyone’s premie baby finally start sleeping 9-12 hours a night straight? My b baby girl is 10 pounds and sleeps about 5 hour stretches. I’m tired!!

Hi, I was curious if it’s normal not to break into a big sweat when doing weights/core strengthening? I go to failure/untik I’m shaking but I don’t actually break out into a sweat until the treadmill. Also is it ok to do the treadmill everyday even when doing weights. My trainer has me doing one day just cardio but ...
