Pregnancy Calorie Needs by Trimester (Educational Guide)

Important disclaimer

Nutrition in pregnancy must be individualized. Calorie calculators are **rough educational aids**. Gestational diabetes, underweight/overweight status, multiples, and allergies require professional nutrition advice.

Hot topic

“How many extra calories in the third trimester?” trends across parenting forums. Use estimates to prepare questions for your clinician or dietitian—not to self-prescribe extreme diets.
