Wasn't sure exactly where to put this, as there is only a weight loss section, nothing for those struggling with gaining weight..

ANNNYYYWAY..

I went to the doctor today to get a prescription for the pill, which ended up with me getting weighed. My weight surprised me. I knew I had lost weight during my pregnancy, but not that much. I am exactly the weight that I was before getting pregnant with DD1, 58kgs. I'm a size 7 now. The doctor was not happy about this because I am underweight for my height etc..she said I need to put on a few kilos, aiming to be 60kgs.

All well and good, but I can't put weight on. This is my size naturally. I don't do much exercise (apart from running after a toddler all day and going to the park almost daily), I eat a lot of full fat foods, I eat a healthy diet. What more can I realistically do?

I could probably do exercise and tone up, and the muscles would make me put on weight, but would this be considered healthy? What if I lost more weight as a result of exercise?

I was around 65kg before getting pregnant with DD2 and was 60kg the day after she was born, so I have lost a further 2kg in 17 weeks.

Does any one else struggle with weight gain?
