Reference Materials
Recommended Weight Gain by Pre-Pregnancy BMITable
Institute of Medicine guidelines for total pregnancy weight gain.
| Pre-Pregnancy BMI | Category | Total Gain (lbs) | Total Gain (kg) |
|---|---|---|---|
| <18.5 | Underweight | 28–40 | 12.5–18 |
| 18.5–24.9 | Normal | 25–35 | 11.5–16 |
| 25.0–29.9 | Overweight | 15–25 | 7–11.5 |
| ≥30.0 | Obese | 11–20 | 5–9 |
Key Prenatal NutrientsTable
Critical nutrients for fetal development and maternal health.
| Nutrient | Daily Need | Primary Sources |
|---|---|---|
| Folate | 600 mcg | Leafy greens, fortified grains |
| Iron | 27 mg | Red meat, beans, spinach |
| Calcium | 1,000 mg | Dairy, fortified plant milk |
| DHA | 200–300 mg | Fatty fish, algae supplements |
Trimester Calorie AdditionsFormula
Additional daily calories beyond pre-pregnancy needs: T1 = 0, T2 = +340 kcal, T3 = +450 kcal.
Track Kick Counts Daily
After 28 weeks, monitor fetal movement patterns. A significant decrease warrants immediate medical contact.
Stay Hydrated
Pregnancy increases blood volume by 50%. Aim for 2.3–3 liters of fluid daily to prevent dehydration and UTIs.
Avoid High-Mercury Fish
Limit albacore tuna to 6 oz/week. Safe choices include salmon, sardines, and trout (2–3 servings/week).
Prepare Freezer Meals
Cook and freeze 2 weeks of meals before due date — postpartum recovery leaves little energy for cooking.
Safety Notes
- Avoid alcohol, raw fish, unpasteurized dairy, and deli meats unless heated to steaming — these carry listeria and other infection risks.
- Contact your provider immediately for vaginal bleeding, severe headache, vision changes, or decreased fetal movement.
