Hi I'm 4 months pregnant with my second child. I put on 3 stone with my first child and I don't want to go down that route again. Anyone else pregnant on here and how did you work out your calorie intake? Thanks

    I'm also pregnant and now that I'm not throwing up all the time my only focus is to eat healthy and workout, instead of focusing on actual # of calories:) I'm just starting today again so you're welcome to friend me!

    When I was pregnant I set my goal as "maintain weight" then I would add daily pregnancy as a food. 1st trimester gives you 100 extra calories, 2nd gives you 300 and 3rd gives you 400.
