Pregnancy- Do You Fear Gaining Weight?

When a woman becomes pregnant she’s filled with excitement, and often fear.  She wonders, “will the baby be ok?”  “will I gain too much weight?”  Many women ask me for suggestions about how to eat when they’re pregnant.  The key to remember is that you are growing a baby, and it’s very important that you listen to your body and eat healthy and drink more water.  Your body will probably crave more food at times, and this is because you are creating a baby!  So eat more, just chose foods that are healthy and will nourish your baby.  There may be some months where you gain more then other months.  Do not focus so much on the number, but on creating a healthy baby.  If you are eating healthy and exercising, you will lose your pregnancy weight much quicker than if you are eating junk food.
