Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching a client who is at 10 weeks of gestation about nutrition during pregnancy. Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because protein is essential for fetal development and increasing protein intake to 60 grams per day is recommended during pregnancy for optimal growth. Adequate protein intake helps in the formation of new tissues and cells.
Choice B is incorrect because while staying hydrated is important during pregnancy, the specific amount of 2 liters per day is not a standard recommendation and may vary depending on individual needs.
Choice C is incorrect as increasing overall daily caloric intake by 300 calories is a general guideline, not specific to the client's gestational age.
Choice D is incorrect as while folic acid is crucial during pregnancy to prevent birth defects, the recommended daily intake is usually 400-800 micrograms, so 600 micrograms is within the range but not the best answer.
