Self-Care During Pregnancy
There is much a pregnant woman can do to take care of herself during pregnancy. If she has questions about diet, drug use or dietary supplements, exercise, and sex during pregnancy, she can talk to her doctor or another health worker.
How Much Weight A Woman Should Gain During Pregnancy?
Depends on her body mass index (BMI) before pregnancy. BMI weighs in kilograms divided by height in square meters and is used to determine whether the average weight is normal. Women with a higher BMI should gain less weight during pregnancy than those with a normal BMI that is considered normal or underweight. A woman of average size should gain about 25 to 35 pounds (11.5 to 16 kg) during pregnancy.
