I am 31 weeks pregnant and weighed myself this morning. I have gained 2 and a half stone since I became pregnant and am so embarrassed. How did it get this bad!!!!
I cant fathom the size I'll be by the time baby is born.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Don’t be embarrassed OP! You’ll be rushing round after the baby’s born - lots of walks with the pram - and it’ll come off right enough. Keep eating healthy food - not long to go now!

I think that's pretty normal. I've put on about a stone and half I'm 32 weeks. To be fair though I've not been eating great loads of sweet stuffs 😂

12 kg was what my Doctor told me was normal weight gain.
You need an extra slice of bread and glass of milk a day, I was told.
I did indulge my sweet tooth with DD1 in the final months ( After really bad morning sickness for the first 20 weeks). She is now a junk food queen. Although she is an adventurous eater and has tried horse meat in Mongolia and insects in Asia.
DD2 I ate a lot of fruit and did not gain as much. She is a very healthy eater and loves fruit.
Good luck
