A 16 year old 16 week pregnant female is present in your office and her doctor wants to ensure everything is fine.  Her height is 5’3” and her current weight is 125 pounds. Her pre-pregnancy weight was 115 pounds.  She informs you she is always hungry and eats at least 5 times per day.  She is a lacto vegetarian and eats a lot of cheese and peanut butter throughout the day.  She also eats fruits and vegetables and loves to eat bagels and bread.  She also snacks on cheese puffs and ice cream constantly.  She used to be on a dance team and still exercises about 1 hour per day.  She tends to forget to take her multi-vitamins and does so about  every other day.

A 40 year old 16 week pregnant female is present in your office and her doctor wants to ensure everything is fine.  Her height is 5’3” and her current weight is 145 pounds.  Her pre-pregnancy weight was 125 pounds.  She informs you she is always hungry and eats at least four times per day.  She eats meats, fruits, vegetables, starches, and milk.  However, she is trying to limit her starch intake.  Since this is her third pregnancy, she wants to remain in shape and exercises one hour per day. She takes a pre-natal vitamin daily.

Example response: Even though you are 16 years old, at this stage in pregnancy you are/are not gaining the proper amount of weight. Based on the pregnancy guidelines, since you were of normal weight (X pounds) prior to pregnancy, you should be gaining X amount of weight during your X trimester.  Even though you are 40 years old, at this stage in pregnancy you are/are not gaining the proper amount of weight. Based on pregnancy guidelines, since you were slightly above weight (X pounds) prior to pregnancy, you should be gaining X amount of weight during your X trimester.
