I had weight gain issues during my first trimester. I was able to gain more than 10 kilos because I started my pregnancy with bed rest. That time, I wasn't allowed to get up unless necessary. I was bed bound then. I only get up whenever I need to take a bath or go to the CR.

But with my second trimester, it seems that I am not gaining weight at all. I wanted to gain at least 2 kilos every month (or approximately 1 lb per week) but I end up gaining less. I feel that the nourishment that I am eating is not enough for me and baby. I even thought of buying weight loss pills before but now, I think it won't be necessary anymore.

Today marks my 24th week or my 6th month of pregnancy. This is the last month for my second trimester. I hope that even if I am not gaining weight, the baby is growing well inside of me. So far, I have been religiously taking my milk and prenatal vitamins. I try to eat healthy when we go out too.
