Question 1 of 5

The nurse is providing nutrition counseling to the client during her first prenatal clinical visit. Which statement, if made by the client, indicates that the client has an understanding of some of the nutritional requirements during pregnancy?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Cheese is a milk product and is an alternative to milk. This statement indicates understanding of nutritional requirements regarding milk and milk products. Caloric intake needs to increase by 300 kcal per day during pregnancy to meet increased metabolic needs. However, “I’m eating for two” is a common misconception and leads to caloric intake greater than necessary. Caloric intake needs to increase by 300 kcal per day and should not be limited during pregnancy. Nutritional snacks throughout the day can provide for steady blood glucose levels and decrease the nausea associated with pregnancy. A limit of only three meals per day may not provide the client with enough calories to meet increased metabolic needs or may cause the client to eat more at each meal and increase nausea and bloating.
