Pregnant & tracking??

brittgreenlikethecolor88

Hi all! I've used this app before to lose weight & love it. Now I'm using it to track my calorie intake while preggers (healthy intake). I'm about 15 weeks along Anyone know if there's a setting for being pregnant on here??

Welcome! I don't think MFP has a specific pregnancy setting, since that's really individual to you, but we do have a couple of pregnancy groups and a thread that includes a lot of good information. If you haven't found these yet, feel free to check them out.

I don't think there is, but I used MFP for my last pregnancy! Did maintenance calories for the first two trimesters, and .5 lb gain for the third. Gained 23 of the 25 lbs my midwife wanted to see, so it worked pretty well. Ask your provider what they recommend for you and then change the weekly goal to that, and adjust as needed. Good luck with your pregnancy!
