How To Manage Weight During Pregnancy?

Pregnancy is a transformative journey, both physically and emotionally. At Anandi Hospitals, we understand that appropriate weight management is one of the most important aspects of a healthy pregnancy.

 

Gaining the right amount of weight helps support your baby’s development while reducing potential risks to your health.

 

Our team of experienced obstetricians, nutritionists, and healthcare specialists is here to guide you with personalised, safe, and evidence-based care throughout every stage of your pregnancy.

Why Weight Management Matters During Pregnancy?

Weight gain is a natural part of pregnancy, but how much and how quickly it happens can make a difference for both mother and baby.

Effective weight management helps:

  • Supporting fetal growth and development
  • Reducing the risk of gestational diabetes and high blood pressure
  • Minimising the chances of delivery complications
  • Promoting post-pregnancy recovery
  • Lowering the risk of obesity later in life for both mother and child
Whether you’re underweight, at a healthy weight, or above the recommended range before pregnancy, our team tailors guidance to your individual health needs.
