Abstract

The initial nutritional status (INS) and the control of weight gain (WG) during the pregnancy are of vital importance, since its alteration constitutes a risk factor for the development of maternal and fetal complications in the short, medium and long term. The objectives were to assess the pre-pregnancy and gestational nutritional status up to the twelfth week of the women assisted at the Health Center No.3 of Loja, and estimate their WG per quarter and establish the relationship of nutritional status and their WG. The study is descriptive. The sample was of 92 pregnant women who met the inclusion criteria. Data was collected from WG curves and Body Mass Index (BMI) of the Ministry of Public Health (MSP), contained in the medical records of pregnant women. After analyzing the information, it was obtained, an initial average BMI(x ̃) of 25,28Kg/m2 (± 4.25DE), the population was divided into, 56.5% with normal INS, 28,3% overweight, 14,1% obesity and 1,1% underweight, the WG at the end of the third quarter was normal at 44,6%, less than what was recommended at 30,4% and excessive at 27,2%. It was found that there is no significant difference (p>0.05) for the relationship between INS and WG at the end of gestation. In conclusion, the initial BMI is not a predictor of the final WG that the pregnant woman will achieve at the end of this process and the alteration of this variable could be determined by other factors.
