eve and pregnancy:pregnancy weight gain

do you have to eat for 2 person?(you and the baby) in this article you will find the answer about gain weight during pregnancy and where is going to go this weight.

How should I gain weight?
When you are pregnant, you have to be careful with a lot of details if you want to have a healthy baby (and of course you want this!). One of this is the weight you have to gain during pregnancy. If you are an expecting mother, you probably know that an adult normal-weight woman must gain something between 25 and 35 pounds, by the ninth month.

Controlling your weight

All you really need to do is to eat sensibly, bearing in mind that a pregnant woman needs approximately 2,500 calories a day. A sensible diet includes five portions of fruit and vegetables each day, and foods from all the major food groups: • About 10 per cent of your calories should come from proteins, such as meat, fish, eggs and pulses. • About 35 per cent of your calories should come from dairy products, such as butter and cheese, and from oils and nuts (fats), slightly less if you are overweight; low fat spreads and yoghurts are fine. • About 55 per cent of your calories (the largest part) should come from bread, pasta, potatoes, rice and cereals (carbohydrates); wholewheat products are better than refined white, as they will keep your blood sugar steady and you will feel fuller for longer. There's no harm in having the occasional chocolate treat, but remember that the extra weight you put on during pregnancy will show all too clearly after your baby is born; losing weight in the early months of motherhood isn't going to be easy
