The influencer claimed to be healthy, despite being overweight; Know how to take care to have a smooth pregnancy
Viih Tube recently revealed how many kilos she has gained now that she is in the latter part of her first pregnancy. In stories on Instagram the influencer, 7 months pregnant, she said she gained 22 pounds from the beginning of pregnancy.
“I did all the blood sugar curve and blood pressure tests and everything is fine. So, it’s more the aesthetic part, which right now doesn’t bother me at all. I’m very calm, I love my body, the process, my phases” said the former BBB, who also said she ate “whatever I wanted” during the period.
But, even if it is healthy, the weight of Viih Tube is higher than recommended by doctors. According to the nutritionist Dr. Ana Luisa Villelaweight loss specialist, Ideally, pregnant women should gain between 7 and 15 kgdepending on your BMI (body mass index).
“During the first 3 months there should be no significant weight gain. Usually there is an increase of less than 2 kg, leaving the greater increase for the following months where there is more important growth of the baby. After the fourth month on average, in a healthy pregnancy the woman gains, on average, 0.5 kg per week,” she explains.
She says that weight gain during pregnancy is due to the changes the body undergoes, representing an increase of 3.5-4 kg until the end of the pregnancy. Therefore, the pregnant woman needs a diet rich in nutrients that contribute to your health and the healthy development of your baby. According to the doctor, the most important are vitamin D, folic acid, B vitamins and iron.
Risks and precautions
Excessive weight gain during pregnancy can increase the risk of diseases such as high blood pressure, gestational diabetes or eclampsia. Therefore, the specialist recommends that the pregnant woman make regular visits to the doctor for proper follow-up.
“If the weight gain is very high, a diet with adequate calories and exercise can be started, as long as there are no contraindications that prevent regular physical activity,” concludes Vilela.
