Personally, I don't count sugars from fruit as being over (unless you are eating A LOT of fruit).
You can customize your calories by going to goals and selecting custom goals. I'd talk with your doctor about what you should put as a calorie goal during various stages of pregnancy and then manually set your goals.0 -

I agree with melodyg on both things. I think the last time I was pregnant I just set my calories to maintenance and had planned to talk to my dr at my first appointment.0
