Weight gain fears

Ellen • Love my baby

Hi , if this is sensitive to people please pass by .

I have been struggling with being afraid to gain weight in pregnancy . I am 24 weeks and because of first trimester weight loss due to nausea and aversions , I only gained 2 pounds so far , ( but with the weight loss and rebound included I gained 10) when I went to my ultrasound last week the doctor told me being overweight puts me at higher risk of still birth and that I would need frequent ultrasounds toward the end of the pregnancy to make sure the baby is ok. He was Very nice about it but now I sit here afraid that if I gain weight the baby is going to die :(

How do people cope with this ?
