Overview

Weight gain depends on your health and your body mass index (BMI) before you were pregnant. If you were underweight before pregnancy, you should gain more weight than a woman who had a normal weight before pregnancy. If you were overweight or obese before pregnancy, you should gain less weight. The amount of weight gain differs by trimester:

Ø     During your first 12 weeks of pregnancy—the first trimester—you might gain only 1 to 5 pounds or none at all.

Ø     If you were a healthy weight before pregnancy, you should gain a half-pound to 1 pound per week in your second and third trimesters.
