Hi moms-to-be;
My name is Ali Graboski and in this video I'm going to talk about pregnancy weight. Most women aren't quite sure how much weight they can or should weight to still remain in healthy weight range and this video will answer that question.
A woman who has average weight before pregnancy should gain between 25 to 35 pounds when she's pregnant. On the other hand, underweight women should gain 28 to 40 pounds during pregnancy while overweight women should gain between 15 and 25 pounds.
Ideally, you should gain between 2 and 4 pounds during first trimester and 1 pound a week during the rest of your pregnancy. However, if expecting twins you should gain between 35 and 45 pounds or 1 ½ pounds a month after the usual weight gain in the first trimester.
If you're wondering where does this weight go, here's your answer:
Baby - 8 pounds
Larger uterus - 2-5 pounds
Placenta - 2-3 pounds
Stored fat for breastfeeding and delivery - 5-9 pounds
Amniotic fluid - 2-3 pounds
Blood supply - 4 pounds
Breast tissue - 2-3 pounds.
