The general recommendation is that you do not raise your calorie intake until the second trimester. At that point, you can consume an extra 200 calories/day. Of course the recommendations are different if you started the pregnancy obese.
Most OBs aren't terribly specific about this sort of stuff. If you are especially concerned, see a nutritionist.0
