Weight-Gain During Pregnancy
Doctors no longer advise
mothers-to-be to "eat for
two." But they also are re-
examining the more recent
dictum that a woman
should keep her weight to
a minimum and not exceed
a gain of 20 pounds during
pregnancy.
Advocates of higher weight-
gain point to the findings of
recent studies, including an
eight-year analysis at The
Johns Hopkins University, to
recommend that the average
gain be revised upwards to be-
tween 22 and 30 pounds. In
every case, of course, a wom-
an's pre-pregnancy weight,
age, height and build must
be taken into consideration
and the weight increase based
upon a sound diet.
When the emphasis upon
low weight-gain came about,
there were more potential
.hazards 'in pregnancy and
childbirth than there are now
and obesity oftcn contributed
to complications. Today, ob-
stetrical mcdicine has made
significant progress in over-
coming many of these prob-
lems. As a result, closer watch
is being directed to the nutri-
tion in pregnancy and its ef-
fects "upon the growth and
development of the unborn
child.
No Cause for Alarm
Stricter weight control often
appeals to women who are
extremely conscious of per-
sonal appearance and reluctant
to add pounds that they fear
will be difficult to lose after
the baby is born. They should
not be unduly alarmed by
growing medical interest in
greater weight-gain. Those
who argue against adding only
10 or 15 pounds during preg-
nancy insist that it be done
through a sensible eating plan
and not ~ust over-indulgence
at the dinmg room table.
It must be noted, too, that
certain conditions in pregnancy
call for strident weight con-
trol. These include toxemia,
. certain metabolic disorders,
cardiac or kidney problems
and diabetes. Where these are

much publicized ever since. The
Crook County Co ami tee was
made up of a representative of

County Clerk on May 5, 1969.
They have ..been meeting regular.

should be commended for doing
a thorough job. They have put
much thought and effort into the
