Weight gain during pregnancy by eating balanced diet and healthy food is very good. It is the sign that your baby is getting all the nutrients s/he needs to grow at a healthy rate.
During pregnancy, it is not necessary to eat for two. It is only necessary for you to eat enough food rich in nutrient that will help your baby to grow and also more calories than you before you became pregnant for it will really help to meet the needs of your baby most especially in growth.
Uuuuuuuuuuh!!!! Pregnancy as I have said is not a time to diet. You as a woman during pregnancy need to depend on your body type and also know your weight before pregnancy. Avoid eating anything that come across you or maybe because a friend ate this and it helped her baby to be healthy and big. Note that body type differs from one person to the other. You may eat such food and it will cause problems to you and the growing baby.
Maybe you are underweight before pregnancy, all you need to do is to gain a little when pregnancy occurs and if you are over weight, try all your possible best to loose for it will really help both you and your baby.
Note that as a woman if you do not gain enough weight during pregnancy, you have the risk of delivering a baby with low birth weight, which is the major cause of infant mortality and other childhood psychological, developmental and physical problems such as being asthma, ear infections, respiratory tract infections, great risk of neurological abnormality, low intelligence tests and they are also more likely to have delay in development.
To avoid this predicament through under weight or over weight as a woman, you need to gain enough weight during pregnancy to help not only yourself but your growing baby also.

Pregnancy and Nutrition.
Nutrition and pregnancy are two different words that go hand in hand. As pregnancy differs from one woman to the other so as the diet intake is in the sense that one woman’s meet is another woman’s poison.
In definition, nutrition and pregnancy is the nutrient intake and dietary plan that you as a woman took before, during and after pregnancy as we all know that all dietary advice relating to pregnancy and nutrition is one of the major factors in determining the future well-being of the conceived child. Though some factors of diet or nutrient are noted to reduce childhood mortality due to helping the supply of nutrients to the mother.
Uuuuuuuuuuusssssh! The history have it that women who consume minimal amount of nutrient during pregnancy over the eight week period has a higher disorder rate concerning their offspring than women who ate regularly. This is because the children that are born to a well fed mother are privileged to have little or no limitation while in the womb.
In pregnancy, ill-nutrition did not only have physical disorder linked to it before and after pregnancy, also handicap are a risk that is run by mothers who are mal-nourished or have little nutrition. This condition of ill-nutrition can also lead to the child becoming subject to low level of desirable physical, mental and more qualities desired in a human being.
Basic nutrients necessary to meet the demands of the developing fetus need to be included in any woman’s diet during pregnancy. Meanwhile general guidelines for healthy eating should be recommended in this case. And for any woman, who does not follow a healthy diet, pregnancy is a good time to do such and junk food should be avoided because it only helps such woman to add more weight.
