Pregnancy weight gain: how much is healthy?
Healthy weight gain depends on your body weight before pregnancy. Guidelines give ranges, but every pregnancy is different.
Why ranges, not a single number
Women with a lower pre-pregnancy BMI usually gain more, and those with a higher BMI gain less. The pattern across the weeks matters more than a single number on the scale.
How a kinesiologist helps
A kinesiologist helps you stay active and strong through pregnancy, which supports healthy gain and an easier recovery after birth.
