All other women are invited to attend Optimal Pregnancy Nutrition workshops where they will receive a ‘Healthy Eating in Pregnancy’ booklet that contains the Pregnancy Weight Tracker. Women attending the Mater Mothers' Hospital for antenatal care will also receive one in their ‘Healthy Eating in Pregnancy’ booklet. Patients can access the weight tracker by visiting the Mater Patient Portal at and by clicking on the Pregnancy Weight Tracker link. How can patients get a Personalised Pregnancy Weight Tracker? Women who do not gain enough weight are more likely to deliver their baby early. They are also more likely to have trouble losing this weight after their baby is born and they may have difficulty breastfeeding. Women who gain weight above the recommended amount are more likely to have caesarean sections, longer hospital stays, high blood pressure and diabetes in pregnancy. Monitoring pregnancy weight gain is important for women’s health and that of their baby. Knowing how much weight to gain, having this tailored to each woman along with ongoing feedback, helps women and their health care professionals to track their weight during pregnancy. The Tracker takes the guess work out of weight gain during pregnancy by allowing women to monitor their weight each week against international and Australian guidelines. The Mater Personalised Pregnancy Weight Tracker is an evidence-based resource developed by Mater Dietitians.
