How Can I Gain the Right Amount of Weight During Pregnancy?
If your health care provider recommends gaining more weight during pregnancy, here are some suggestions:
- Eat five to six small, frequent meals every day.
- Keep quick, easy snacks on hand, such as nuts, raisins, cheese and crackers, dried fruit, and ice cream/yogurt.
- Spread peanut butter on toast, crackers, apples, bananas, or celery. One tablespoon of creamy peanut butter will provide about 100 calories and seven grams of protein.
- Add nonfat powdered milk to foods such as mashed potatoes, scrambled egg,s and hot cereal.
- Add condiments to your meal, such as butter or margarine, cream cheese, gravy, sour cream, and cheese.
