Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

D
A weight gain of 25 to 35 lb is believed to reduce intrauterine growth restriction that may result from inadequate nutrition, and also allows for variations in individual needs. There is no precise weight gain appropriate for all women.
A 10-lb weight gain is not sufficient to meet the needs of the pregnancy.
A 15- to 20-lb weight gain is recommended for women who are overweight before the preg-nancy.
A 20- to 25-lb weight gain is recommended for women who are overweight before the preg-nancy.
