for the asked normal amount of weight to ho gained during pregnancy. Your dietitian discussed this problem with a leading obstetrician who explained that while 20 pounds is the recommended amount to gain, it is a mistake to focus on that figure, for it applies only to the woman who is normal weight at the start of pregnancy.

During the initial visit of the expectant mother, ideal weight for her height and build is calculated, 20 pounds is added to this figure, and this total is set as the final weight goal, our authority pointed out.

For the underweight, then, the weight gain should bo greater than the 20 pounds average. Say a woman is 5'8" tall and weighs a mere 108 pounds, Since her ideal weight is 125 pounds, her weight goal at the end of the nine-month perlod is 145 pounds. In other words, she should olm at gaining 40 pounds, It is Im- portant that this extra weight be gained in order to provide a weight reserve after the baby is born, the specialist emphasised,

When a woman la five or so pounds above her right weight, she will be encouraged to restrict her total weight gain to 15 pounds.
