Dream - Loss of appetite, nausea, and dizziness are usually experienced by pregnant women in the first trimester of pregnancy or the first 3 months. This is due to drastic hormonal changes.

Entering the age of 6 months of pregnancy and above, usually the body condition becomes more stable. When nausea and dizziness subside, the appetite of pregnant women tends to increase. If not controlled, the increase can be excessive.

Safe weight gain for pregnant women is between 11 and 16 kg. During pregnancy, it is important for the fetus to gain weight, not the mother. The key is to consume a lot of protein and avoid carbohydrates or high-fat foods.

"Excessive weight during pregnancy can also increase the risk of high blood pressure and high blood sugar. So how can weight be maintained at a normal level during pregnancy?"

Listen to the tricks from Dr. Michelle Lim from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, KK Women's and Children's Hospital, Singapore.
