I MUST gain 20-25 lbs for me and my child to be healthy.
I am 5 months pregnant and I had my mid way sonogram yesterday where I was told that me and my daughter are very low weight. She is only 8 oz but supposed to be 11 at least 10. I am still the same weight as when I got pregnant (114 lbs) and I have not gained any weight. I must gain 20-25 lbs in order for us to be healthy and not experience any problems during delivery. They sent me to a nutritionist where they developed a meal plan for me. This is something I’m used to because I’ve been anorexic since 15 and have been inpatient before on an ED unit. I’m extremely scared of gaining weight but I know it’s pertinent in order for us to be healthy. All I want is a healthy daughter but I’m having such a difficult time even with the meal plan in place. Please any advice would be of help.
