What are the indicators of nutritional risk in pregnancy in a client who is of normal
weight?
,Smoker
Twin gestation
Hemoglobin of 12 g/dL (120 mmol/L)
Term delivery 2 years ago
Caffeine intake of 180 mg/day
Fasting blood sugar of 80 mg/dL (4.4 mmol/L)

1
Smoker
2
Twin gestation
Smokers generally have a nutrient-poor diet and are at risk for continuing
the same diet through pregnancy. Multifetal pregnancies require nutrition
above the normal requirements for pregnancy. A hemoglobin reading of 12
g/dL and fasting blood sugar of 80 mg/dL are normal values. Caffeine
intake of 180 mg/day is less than the daily recommended intake.
On a routine prenatal visit, what is the sign or symptom that a healthy primigravida at

Pedal edema
Vaginal spotting

What are the medical concerns in adolescent pregnancies?

Anemia
Poor maternal weight gain
pregnancy-induced hypertension
Medical concerns in adolescent pregnancies include maternal anemia,
poor weight gain, and pregnancy-induced hypertension. Adolescents often
receive delayed or inadequate prenatal care, increasing the risk of a low-
birthweight infant, not an obese one. Pregnancy-induced diabetes is a risk
factor associated with pregnancies involving maternal obesity and maternal
age greater than 25 years.
A pregnant client is making her first antepartum visit. She has a 2-year-old son born at
40 weeks, a 5-year-old daughter born at 38 weeks, and 7-year-old twin daughters
born at 35 weeks. She had a spontaneous abortion 3 years ago at 10 weeks. How
does the nurse, using the GTPAL format, document the client's obstetric history?
