I want to gain weight

Hello everyone, I know most people want to lose weight. However, I want to gain some weight. What advice would you give me? I was 64kg before and lost 10kg during my first pregnancy nearly 2 years ago. I am now 21 weeks pregnant for my second baby and only gained around 3kg so far as I was struggling to eat properly. I find it hard to put on weight again! Any advice?

You're probably on the wrong board 😀 this is for weight lifting rather than weight gaining.

If you have no underlying medical conditions you need to eat calorie rich foods. Possibly supplemented by calorie dense shakes. What do you eat now?

Hello, thank you for your reply. I have IBS for years now and I've gained weight with it. I am taking some shakes. But need more calories I think
