Rationale 1: The 40-year-old woman has completed her growth cycle, and her body can focus on diverting the nutritional needs to the fetus.
Rationale 2: The 22-year-old woman has completed her growth cycle, and her body can focus on diverting the nutritional needs to the fetus.
Rationale 3: The 35-year-old woman has completed her growth cycle, and her body can focus on diverting the nutritional needs to the fetus.
Rationale 4: Adolescent patients typically are still in their own growth cycle. With pregnancy, they suddenly need increased nutrition for themselves and the fetus. This places them at greatest risk for malnutrition.
