I suggest eating something every couple of hours, say every 2hours have a small meal and snack in between.
Cereal, rice, pasta, spaghetti, fruit, veg, meats, nuts, bread, fish and dairy products.
Bread and pasta will be your biggest weight gain as there are so much carbs in them.
Your baby won’t gain weight with you eating alot, it’ll only be you that gains the weight, your baby will take all the nutrients it needs and grow at the pace it’s supposed too.
Edit - Protein doesn’t turn to fat, your body uses it right away, your body takes a while to burn protein so it uses more energy to burn the protein therefore in the long run you actually loose weight eating alot of protein. Don’t get me wrong, you need protein but eating too much will cause your body to loose weight rather than put it on.

Anything really as long as you eat enough of it. Breads, grains, pastas, eggs, power bars, certain shakes. It’ll be easy.

carbs, proteins, protein shakes, veggies and fruits that are high in sugar too are good if you want to gain weight the healthy way….

fruit has natural sugar but prob best to get referred to a dietician as too much sugar can make diabetes just eat bigger meals more porridge for breakfast 2 sandwiches for lunch instead of one double helping of pasta for dinner stuff like that all the best!
