A. Hi.. weight gain is a healthy part of pregnancy and you will have to understand the reason for weight gain since your body is making enough of fat to support baby e lactation glands are building the baby itself is adding to the weight so don't worry about the weight enjoy your pregnancy, eat healthy and take care of your gestational diabetes

A. It’s Not like that of course you will gain weight to see just understand the simple logic if you’re eating too much obviously the body is going to gain weight and the diabetes does not have an any connection to your weight gain as such and see what is most important is that your child should be gaining the weight if you have gained 5 KG in the pregnancy and your child by the time of birth is even 2.5 KG then that’s very very healthy because it is said if a woman be gains about 10 KG in a pregnancy then that’s good enough
