Nutritional needs of the pregnant adolescent
Dr. Roy Pitkin of The University of Iowa warns that pregnancy under 18 carries higher risks such as prolonged labor toxemia and anemia, with the baby at greater risk of low birth weight. He urges careful diet with adequate iron calcium protein and vitamin C and outlines gradual weight gain through pregnancy. Research by Dr Zlatnik shows risks decline with years since menarche, nearing adult levels after five years.
