Nutrition Top Tip – Week 19

Time for a weight gain check: Gaining too much weight during pregnancy can lead to a baby that is too large at birth. Contrary to some beliefs, an extra-large baby at birth (>4 kg) will have a greater chance of becoming too heavy during his toddler and childhood years.

Discuss with your gynecologist how your weight gain is stacking up compared to what is recommended or learn more about healthy weight gain in pregnancy at BabyBelly Nutrition.
