Regular and healthy nutrition of the mother during pregnancy and breastfeeding is important for the health of the baby and the mother. The foods consumed during pregnancy are very important for the development of the baby. Although it is normal to gain 9-12 kg during this period, expectant mothers who start pregnancy above their normal weight should be more careful. However, trying to lose weight in this process is not the right behavior. It is healthier for you and your baby to ask your dietitian to create a special program for you to eat healthy and adequately. The fact that pregnant people do not gain too much weight during pregnancy and that all nutritional needs of the mother and baby are met in an adequate and balanced way eliminates many risks.

It is important to get professional help from a dietitian and to follow the prepared program regularly in the process that can extend to reduction of muscle and bone density and organ damage.
