    Dieting while Pregnant?? Getting Married.

    Hi all.
    I need a bit of advice.
    I am 8wks pregnant and getting married in 7wks.
    I was not expecting to fall pregnant so soon after a recent m/c and already purchased my gown.
    The problem is that with cravings the last few weeks and not being able to excrecise due to dizzy spells and breathing troubles i have put on a few kilos. Mainly my butt and hips.
    I really want to fit into my gown and need to try and stop myself from putting on any extra kilos before the wedding.
    Does anyone have any ideas that might help??
    With my pregnancy of my son 3yrs ago i didn't show until 18wks and hardly put on any wait but this time it looks like my body has other plans.
    Thanks and looking forward to hearing so ideas.

    all i can say is dont diet! This bub needs good nutrition.
    Fight the craving and eat healthy and hopefully your weight will be stable for your wedding.

    BEst of luck

    i wouldnt recommend dieting either but theres nothing wrong with eating healthy, salads, healthy rolls, stirfries etc... and trying to do some gentle excersise at home, lift bags of flour for weights, vacum the floor etc...

    I don't recommend dieting but this early in the pregnancy you can still do some leg and bum exercises. Even gentle stomache exercise is ok. Eating healthily and drinking lots of water should do the trick. If not see if your dress can be let out a little.

    Good luck
