The data were obtained from 2 questionnaires filled by pregnancy women and obstetricians. In the whole set, 12% of women are concerned with their weight intensively and perception of their weight is rather negative.5,8% of women show negative relationship to pregnancy at the beginning, in the 2.trimester it is only the small fragment of all women. The reason for the negative perception of the weight is influenced by somatic, psychic and social aspect.The most important issue is emotional stability. The most commmon increase in weight was between 8-15 kg,in average 11,34 kg. The increase in weight in pregnancy is, among other reason, mediated by nutrition, smoking and job.
