Hi everyone,

I need some advice regarding eating during pg. I am hungry a lot and am eating a lot of food but am aware that I need only an extra 827kg in the third trimester. I think that I may be eating too much and am concerned about too much weight gain to come. I have not been exercising due to the haematoma in early pg and recent virus but am well now and will start exercising.

As an example, today I have had Rice Bubbles/milk, orange juice, two vegemite sandwiches, 3 museli bars, apple, nectarine, plum and a tub of yoghurt. For dinner I am having steak with salad and potatoes. I usually have cheese or salad sandwiches for lunch. I am really eating all day and even the people at work comment that I am always eating.

Maybe eating more lower GI foods may help. Is this amount of food normal and does anyone have any advice?

Not sure if this should have gone in the weight loss thread?

Gemma.
