Nutritional Requirements During Pregnancy
Nutritional Status Prior to Pregnancy
- The fetal origins hypothesis
o The environment in which the mother is during pregnancy and the development
of the fetus and motherhood in will impact the health of the child
▪ After WW2, famine was widespread in Denmark. The fetus developing
during this famine, the alleles of the fetus were developing in a way
similar to that of obesity
• These infants had higher rates of obesity later on in life
▪ This still remains prevalent to this day in areas of the world where there
are wet and dry seasons as there are limited amounts of fresh fruits and
vegetables
o This environment this mother is in extends to not only what the mother is
consuming, but the quality of the air the mother is breathing
o Working with pregnant women to make sure they get the nourishment they
need
▪ This impacts future generations
• Creates a healthier trajectory for multiple generations
- Maternal preconception weight status
- Preexisting conditions
o If the mother has type 1 diabetes, you have to make sure her blood glucose
levels are managed
- Public health campaigns to improve preconception nutritional status
Nutritional Needs During Pregnancy
- Energy
o As a woman is pregnant, her metabolism gets amped up
- Carbohydrate
- Protein
- Spacing out pregnancies allows the maternal stores to be replenished
o In certain areas of the world, malnutrition is common for women who become
pregnant often
2009 IOM Guidelines for Prenatal Weight Gain
- Underweight BMI < 18.5: 28-40 lbs
- Normal weight BMI 18.5-24.9: 25-35 lbs
- overweight BMI 25.0-29.9: 15-25 lbs
- Obese BMI > 30: 11-20 lbs
- Twins: 35-45 lbs
- If you are underweight, you need to put on more weight to compensate for the fetus

Nutritional Needs During Pregnancy: Fat
- Dietary fats
- Fatty acids
o Linoleic acid (omega-6)
o Linolenic acid (omega-3)
▪ Fish
▪ Chia seeds
▪ Flax seeds
o NECESSARY FOR THE OPTIMAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE BRAIN AND EYES OF THE
DEVLOPING FETUS
o Plays a key role in precursors for hormone-like substances and hormone
regulation in the developing fetus
- No daily recommended intake for total fat
