Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Didactic Sessions
Women will receive online nutrition education by a registered dietitian, in addition to the same standard patient education tool as the other arm.
Didactic dietary sessions
Three one-hour online nutrition group classes will be scheduled at 17, 21 and 29 weeks gestation (± 1 week). Nutrient dense foods and beverages and limiting the intake of added sugars, sodium and saturated fat will be encouraged, as well as reading the nutrition facts label, individual goal setting and self-monitoring. Physician recommended physical activity will be encouraged. Food and beverage intake data will be measured by 24-hour dietary recalls collected on three non-consecutive days. Data will be collected by telephone interview by a registered dietitian or dietary technician on four separate occasions: 16, 20 and 28 weeks gestation (± 1 week) and 36 weeks of gestation. Details on portions consumed will be estimated using standard measuring cups and household utensils. Nutrient intake will be generated using Vision Software Nutrient Analysis Software and the United States Department of Agriculture Food Composition Database, Food Data Central.
Education Tool
The standard patient education tool will take the form of a leaflet which will include 1. A definition of body mass index 2. A list of measures to be taken to limit weight gain in pregnancy. 3. A description of the major nutrients required in pregnancy (folate, iron, calcium, vitamin D and protein). and 4.A description of the six food groups with recommendations for the number of servings per day.
