Slimming world and pregnancy

I can finally say I’m pregnant again! Due date is 20th June.
But after my first I went from 11 to 15 stone. Then after my second my weight snuck up to 18 stone.
I’ve been on slimming world for 2 months and now 16’11 so it is steadily coming off, but my question is (and I’ve found lots of old threads)
Is anyone doing slimming world when pregnant, or done it in the past with success? I’d be happy with a maintain throughout but my target of 12 stone (I’m 5’8) is soooo far away!!

You absolutely can do SW while pregnant! You just get a few adjustments made in terms of your HEA and B (you get extra yay!)
You will need to speak to your consultant who will give you the special book and form for your midwife to fill in. She needs to consent for SW to keep weighing you etc. It’s all very above board and great for baby as it’s all healthy stuff. Congratulations on your pregnancy and good luck maintaining x

I've been weighing through my pregnancy but I was at target before I got pregnant so it's still inevitable for me to go up. So far I'm 9lb up at 24 weeks which I'm thrilled with really. I will admit that during the first trimester it was more a case of what I could eat without feeling sick so I didn't follow plan 100%, but the good habits have never really left which is good. You can do it, enjoy your pregnancy :)

Hello! Firstly, congratulations! Our due date is also 20th June!
I’ve recently lost 1.5 stone on SW before finding out I was pregnant. I plan to meet with my consultant, I really want to stay healthy throughout the pregnancy too! X

Yey! Hey due date buddy!! I’m convinced my weight loss is why I’ve caught this time, we weren’t actively trying, just stopped preventing it in July. Good old SlimmingWorld!
It would be nice to lose a bit more but realistically that’s hard! Another 2lbs off last night tho Grin

I feel the same, the healthy lifestyle must have helped 😊 I’m going to miss receiving the weight loss certificates haha!! The weight gain will all be worth it!! Xx

I’m gonna keep weighing and doing my body magic so fingers crossed. But after birth I’m gonna breastfeed and hit the plan hard! I’ll be at target before I know it Grin

Does anyone have some really good sites which would help me out with this? I've looked at slimming world site but wondered if there's any others about. Won't be able to go to the meetings or anything but would really like to try give the plan a go and get into a habbit for when I've had the baby too.
