Default Is Angelina Jolie too thin? Her doctors think so.

Quote:
Doctors are concerned that Angelina Jolie is too thin and are worried that her baby may be at risk if she doesn't pack on the pounds soon, a report claims.

Angie's athletic build probably makes that a bit tougher, but a published report claims that Jolie has only gained 12 pounds and she is just entering her third trimester and that may cause problems in her last three months of pregnancy.

The American tabloid Celebrity Living reports that insiders have learned that the pregnant but still-skinny superstar has been warned by doctors to gain weight.

"Angelina's been told by her doctors that although the baby is healthy, she is below the ideal weight for a woman at this stage of pregnancy," says the source.

Angelina, 30, is said to have weighed 125 pounds at her first prenatal appointment, at seven weeks. At her recent 27-week checkup, she weighed around 137 pounds — a gain of only 12 pounds!

"[Doctors] have told her that by the time of her next appointment, she should have put on another five to seven pounds," says the source.

To help her reach her goal, a concerned Brad Pitt, 42, is following up on her doctors' orders and urging Angelina to eat more, while also trying to persuade her that they should pull back on their jet-setting schedule.

Early in the pregnancy Jolie reportedly struggled with a hectic schedule, lightheadedness and morning sickness.

And new reports say she has been eating healthy and exercising, but the puffy-lipped mom-to-be still apparently needs to pack on some pounds for her unborn baby's health.
