Weight gain in pregnancy
Hi everyone, ftm here (28f) and i was wondering how much weight have other ftm gained during their pregnancy. My doctor is always telling me to work out and to eat healthy which i am doing but still i am gaining weight at a rapid rate according to her. I am 5'6 and i was 150 lbs before pregnancy. Now i am at 168 lbs at 22 weeks pregnant. I am exercising 3-5 times a week, sometimes yoga, sometimes pilates and sometimes stationary bike and i am eating pretty healthy now too.
I do not like sweets so i do not eat anything sweet and i do not eat any fast food. I was eating white bread pretty frequently but i switched to whole wheat bread back when i was less than 12 weeks into the pregnancy. I know i have to eat more fruits but because i don't like sweet things there are very few fruits i like to eat, only mango but it is hard to find a good mango during this time of year. I cut down on the amount of rice i eat and have been eating more salads and protein, but still my weight keeps going up and i'm starting to feel guilty 😔 I feel bad every time i go to the doctors in fear that ima get scolded for the weight gain.
