The amount of kilojoules a pregnant women should consume all depends on which trimester of pregnancy she is in. If she consumed the appropriate amount of kilojoules before she became pregnant, she would need not to consume extra kilojoules on her first trimester. On her second trimester, she should consume an extra 1400 extra every day. As she moves onto her third trimester, she should start consuming another extra 1900 kilojoules a day.

Ive had ywo pregnancies...one at age 17, very easy until the last frw hours! My next one wasnt until i wad 34, miserable & a bit more weight gain. Toward the end, the heartburn was so bad ! I did a lot of leaf-raking & walking & bike riding to bring on labor. I dont know if it helped, both gave me excercise though, that was important. Drs recommend no more weihht gain than 15-17 lbs if you can keep it around there it shouldt be a problem to lose so u can get back in shape quickly by adding basic strengthening exercises, and just acting normal. "eating for two" is a recie for disaster & sorry excuse. Dont get fatter, you risk making things harder and getting PTSD. Good luck!

Ask your prenatal doctor. You will need extra vitamins, but you can take those as capsules. Try to eat fioods known to be healthy, green veggies, eggs, milk, bread, peanut butter & so forth.
