Change in diet at 24w?

Question

Okay y'all, so I'm a really unhealthy eater. I'm excessively over weight for my height. I know I should have changed my diet and started eating healthy and exercising prepregnancy and when I found out I was pregnant but I didn't. This may be a stupid question, but is it safe to change my diet and start exercising mid-pregnancy? Like what if I start to lose weight instead of gain ? Will my baby still be getting all she needs as long as I'm being healthy and getting proper nutrients?

Answer

Definitely safe :) if anything eating healthier will only improve the nutrients your baby is receiving. As for exercising, I wouldnt go crazy since you haven't done anything leading up to it, but increasing your activity level is all good. Maybe try going for a walk everyday, or doing some prenatal yoga :) good luck girl!

Answer

I think eating healthier will only do good things for you and the baby. I would speak to my doctor about specific needs and getting help started if I were you. Best of luck!

Answer

My mom was overweight when she was pregnant with me and lost 20lbs her whole pregnancy. As long as you’re doing it the right way, healthy meals and light exercises, then there’s no problem. I’d do small changes over a few weeks.

Answer

Yes it's never too late to eat healthy :) as far as exercising, I'd just start slow and listen to your body..don't overdo it lol
