i guess i'm looking for reassurance but......
i had an ante-natal check today. i'm 23 weeks and have put on 8lbs(!!!!) in the last 4 weeks. is this normal? i thought it was quite early in the pg to be putting on such a large amount of weight. midwife mentioned that it might be fluid retention having been drinking a lot during the recent hot weather. would such a weight-gain be very bad for the baby? has anyone any suggestions to minimise further weight-gain as obviously a crash diet is now out of the question! BTW haven't been craving anything sweet!
