Weight gain in pregnancy is not the same throughout pregnancy and depends on various factors, such as pre-pregnancy weight (weight in early pregnancy), fluid retention and type of food. All these factors are evaluated by doctors and nutritionists who according to each woman’s personal history will say how many kilos should increase.
So taking into account guidance and pregestational factor we can say that women with:
* Normal prepregnancy weight, should increase 12 kg. (between 10 – 13kg).
* Prepregnancy weight in overweight or obese, should increase at least 7lbs (between 7 – 10kg).
* Low prepregnancy weight should increase more than 13kg (entre15-17Kg).
If we consider quarterly gain weight for a woman with normal prepregnancy weight is:
* 1st Quarter: 0 – 12th week: 0-1 Kg increase
* 2nd Quarter: 13 – 24 th week: 3-4 kg of increase
* 3rd Quarter: 25 º – 40 º week: 8lbs increase
During pregnancy is extremely important to have good food and the nutritional status of pregnant women affects pregnancy and the child’s weight at birth.
Undoubtedly, to have a healthy baby, the safest way is to choose a complete diet by limiting the consumption of fast foods (hamburgers, hot dog), simple sugars (candy, ice cream, soft drinks, cakes, etc..) And increase protein and fibers. To attend regular medical checks, be active, remove the cigarette, alcohol and limit caffeine.
