Primary | Change in weight from first to last prenatal visit | Weight measured at each prenatal visit will be retrieved from medical records for all participants and used to model total weight change from the first to the last prenatal visit (i.e., gestational weight gain). | First prenatal visit (<15 weeks gestation), last prenatal visit (35+ weeks gestation) | |
Secondary | Change in Food Insecurity | Determined using the 18-item United States (US) Household Food Security Survey Module based on the previous 30 days. Adult food security scores range from 0 to 10, with lower values indicating greater food security. | baseline (12-15 weeks gestation), (35-36 weeks gestation) | |
Secondary | Change in Perceived Stress | Determined using the 10-item Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) based on the last month. PSS-10 scores range from 0 to 40, with higher scores representing higher levels of perceived stress. | baseline (12-15 weeks gestation), (35-36 weeks gestation) | |
Secondary | Change in Participant Satisfaction with Diet | Determined using the 28-item Diet Satisfaction Questionnaire in which participants respond to 28 statements using a 5-point Likert scale. Responses are average to produce a total diet satisfaction score ranging from 1-5. Changes in overall diet satisfaction, as well as changes in subscale scores for Cost Factor and Planning & Preparation Factor will be examined from baseline to follow-up. | baseline (12-15 weeks gestation), (35-36 weeks gestation) | |
Secondary | Proportion of Women Exceeding Institute of Medicine Gestational Weight Gain Guidelines | Weight at the first prenatal visit will be subtracted from weight at the last prenatal visit. Women will be categorized as exceeding 2009 Institute of Medicine gestational weight gain guidelines if the difference is > 11.5 kg gain for women with overweight or >9 kg for women with obesity at the first prenatal visit. | First prenatal visit (<15 weeks gestation), last prenatal visit (35+ weeks gestation) |
