Should I try to lose weight?

El

I feel really stupid saying this but I was overweight before getting pregnant and I’m now over 10 weeks and have piled on weight in the last month.

I don’t enjoy pregnancy (this is my second), I know how lucky I am to be pregnant and I’m so grateful for that but I feel awful most of the time.

I’m hoping I feel a bit better in the next couple of weeks but can’t help but think I’m not doing myself any favours as I can barely eat anything nutritious and I feel too ill and fatigued to do any exercise so I’m just getting bigger and feeling more and more down.

Is it wrong to try and lose weight while pregnant? My BMI is something like 34 so I’m at no risk of getting underweight. I just feel like I need to do something about it or I’m not going to want to leave the house in a few weeks time, I feel so shit 😔
