Hi mama! 🤗
Happy new month! May this month be more fruitful with lots of blessings for you and your family. How are you today? Whether you're at work, on vacation, or staycation, I hope you have a productive week.
It's that time of the month when you need to prepare the kids back to school. Starting a new term comes with new stationery, shoes, books, etc.
To prevent the rush hour buy, start stacking up the house with their favourite snacks and stationaries to avoid stories that touch. An equipped child will be well-prepared for school. You got this mama! 🦹♀️
Without further ado, today’s treat! 🥰
Should You Lose Weight In Pregnancy?
Pregnancy is an amazing transformation journey. It comes with its ups and downs tailored to every woman 🤰
A common dread among most pregnant women is weight gain. Weight gain is an uncontrolled symptom of pregnancy. Your weight gain depends on several factors like your body size before pregnancy, food, type of pregnancy (in case of multiples) and medical conditions prior to the pregnancy.
Nothing will prepare you for the weight gain. It occurs in stages 😭
Some mamas may want to lose weight during pregnancy. While it isn't impossible, be aware that you're carrying a little one inside you. They also need all the essential nutrients to survive.
To subtly help you maintain your weight, reduce your calorie intake during pregnancy because excess weight gain is possible.
You can also continue engaging in light exercises you normally perform before pregnancy to avoid muscle fatigue and excess pressure🏃♀️
We prepared a short breakdown of options for you to maintain a healthy weight during pregnancy.
