2009 IOM guideline
Calories and weight gainin multiple pregnancies• In multiple pregnancy, as the metabolic rate of the mother is
greater than in singleton pregnancy, it has been suggested that at
high calorie diet may help maintain her nutritional state.
• A low rate of gain (<6kg) before 24 weeks is significantly associated
with poor fetal growth and higher morbidity
• twins were three times more likely to be born prematurity to
women of any weight who lost weight after 28 weeks gestation.

Reported average nutrient intakes by pregnant women in comparison with1989 recommended dietary allowances
Risk of iron deficiency
• Pregnancy (second two trimesters)
• Menorrhagia (loss of more than 80 ml of blood per month)
• Diets low in both meat and ascorbic acid
• Multiple gestation
• Blood donation more than three times per year
• Chronic use of aspirin

Changes in maternal iron status in twin pregnancy
Luke et al, Seminars in perinatology, 2005;29:349-54
IDA• a/w Preterm births, low birth weight, development of chronic disease.
• high placental/birth weight ratio <-development of a large placenta
: predictive of long-term programming of hypertension and
cardiovascular disease.
• 2.4-4 times IDA in multiple gestation
• Iron requirement :nearly two fold in twin
• Dietary sources of iron ( preferable, particularly heme-iron-rich sources )
: red meat, pork, poultry, fish, and eggs.
Luke et al, Seminars in perinatology, 2005;29:349-54Bricker, Best practice & research clinical obstetrics and gynecology 2014;28:305-17
Folic acid
• Required for DNA synthesis and cell division, plays a
critical role in fetal development.
• Megaloblastic anemia d/t 2o folate def.
: 8 times higher in multiple pregnancies.
• Low folate status
• preterm delivery, low birth weight, fetal growth
restriction.

Scholl & Johnson, AM J Clin Nutr 2000 May;71(5 Suppl):1295S-303S.
Folic acid• Health professionals should:
• Use any appropriate opportunity to advise women who may become pregnant
that they can most easily reduce the risk of having a baby with a neural tube
defect (for example, anencephaly and spina bifida) by taking folic acid
supplements. Advise them to take 400 micrograms (μg) daily before pregnancy
and throughout the first 12 weeks, even if they are already eating foods
fortified with folic acid or rich in folate.
• Advise all women who may become pregnant about a suitable folic acid
supplement, such as the maternal Healthy Start vitamin supplements.
• Encourage women to take folic acid supplements and to eat foods rich in folic
acid (for example, fortified breakfast cereals and yeast extract) and to
consume foods and drinks rich in folate (for example, peas and beans and
orange juice). Maternal and child nutrition, NICE public health guidance 11. 2014
Folic acid
• Dietary source
: fortified grains, spinach, lentils, chick peas, asparagus, broccoli,
peas, Brussels sprouts, corn, and oranges.
• Recommended
• 0.4 mg/d (400mcg/d)
• 4 mg/d (to prevent recurrence of NTD)
• 600mcg/d, once pregnant
IOM, subcommittee on nutritional status and weight gain during pregnancy 1990
High dose folic acid
• GPs should prescribe 5 mg of folic acid a day
for women who are planning a pregnancy, or are
in the early stages of pregnancy, if they:
1. (or their partner) have a NTD
2. have had a previous baby with a NTD
3. (or their partner) have a family history of NTD
4. have diabetes.
Maternal and child nutrition, NICE public health guidance 11. 2014
Micronutrients
• Vitamins
• Fat soluble :A,D,E,K
• Water soluble: B, C, Folate
• Minerals and trace elements
• Calcium
• Magnesium
• Zinc
Vitamin A
• Maximal recommended vitamin A supplement in pregnancy is 8,000
IUs/d.
• Excessive doses of vitamin A (at least more than 10,000 IUs/d
and probably more than 25,000 IUs) in pregnancy have been
associated with fetal anomalies, including anomalies of the
cardiovascular system, face and palate, ears, and genitourinary
tract.
• Excessive supplementation of most other vitamins can result in
GI disturbances but seem without teratogenic effect.

niacin 15 mg, pantothenic acid 6 mg, folic acid 200 microgram,
cobalamin 1 microgram, zinc 15 mg, magnesium 87.5 mg, and
calcium carbonate 100 mg) in pregnancy resulted in a 10%
improvement in birth weight and a reduction in birth weight
below 2,700 g among singleton pregnancies.
Hininger et al, Eur J Clin Nutr 2004;58:52–9.
Cochrane review
• Cochrane review found no RCTs to advise whether
specific dietary advice for women with multiple
pregnancy does more good than harm.
• The optimal diet for women with multiple pregnancies is
uncertain.
Nutritional advice for improving outcomes in multiple pregnanciesCochrane Database Syst Rev. 2011;15(6):CD008867
NICE clinical guideline (multiple pregnancy)
1.2.2 Diet, lifestyle and nutritional supplements
1.2.2.1 Give women with twin and triplet pregnancies the same advice about
diet, lifestyle and nutritional supplements as in routine antenatal care.
1.2.2.2 Be aware of the higher incidence of anemia in women with twin and
triplet pregnancies compared with women with singleton pregnancies.
1.2.2.3 Perform a full blood count at 20–24 weeks to identify women with
twin and triplet pregnancies who need early supplementation with iron or
folic acid, and repeat at 28 weeks as in routine antenatal care.
Multiple pregnancy, NICE clinical guideline 129. 2014
NICE public health guideline(Antenatal care)
1.3.2 Nutritional supplements1.3.2.1 Pregnant women (and those intending to become pregnant) should
be informed that dietary supplementation with folic acid, before
conception and throughout the first 12 weeks, reduces the risk of
having a baby with a neural tube defect (for example, anencephaly or
spina bifida). The recommended dose is 400 mcg per day.
1.3.2.2 Iron supplementation should not be offered routinely to all
pregnant women. It does not benefit the mother's or the baby's health
and may have unpleasant maternal side effects.
Antenatal care, NICE public health guidance 62. 2014
NICE public health guideline(Antenatal care)1.3.2.3 Pregnant women should be informed that vitamin A
supplementation (intake above 700 micrograms) might be
teratogenic and should therefore be avoided.
Pregnant women should be informed that liver and liver products
may also contain high levels of vitamin A, and therefore
consumption of these products should also be avoided.
Antenatal care, NICE public health guidance 62. 2014
NICE public health guideline(Antenatal care)
1.3.2.4 New All women should be informed at the booking appointment about the
importance for their own and their baby's health of maintaining adequate vitamin D
stores during pregnancy and whilst breastfeeding. In order to achieve this, women
should be advised to take a vitamin D supplement (10 micrograms of vitamin D per day),
as found in the Healthy Start multivitamin supplement. Women who are not eligible for
the Healthy Start benefit should be advised where they can buy the supplement.
Particular care should be taken to enquire as to whether women at greatest risk are
following advice to take this daily supplement. women with darker skin (such as those of
African, African–Caribbean or South Asian family origin women who have limited
exposure to sunlight, such as women who are housebound or confined indoors for long
periods, or who cover their skin for cultural reasons.

JOINT SOGC-MOTHERISK CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINERecommendations
1. Women in the reproductive age group should be advised about the benefits of
folic acid in addition to a multivitamin supplement during wellness visits (birth
control renewal, Pap testing, yearly examination) especially if pregnancy is
contemplated. (III-A)
2. Women should be advised to maintain a healthy diet, as recommended in
Eating Well With Canada’s Food Guide (Health Canada). Foods containing
excellent to good sources of folic acid are fortified grains, spinach, lentils, chick
peas, asparagus, broccoli, peas, Brussels sprouts, corn, and oranges. However, it
is unlikely that diet alone can provide levels similar to folate-multivitamin
supplementation. (III-A)
J Obstet Gynaecol Can. 2007;29(12):1003-13
JOINT SOGC-MOTHERISK CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINERecommendations3. Women taking a multivitamin containing folic acid should be advised not to
take more than one daily dose of vitamin supplement, as indicated on the
product label. (II-2-A)
4. Folic acid and multivitamin supplements should be widely available without
financial or other barriers for women planning pregnancy to ensure the extra
level of supplementation. (III-B)
5. Folic acid 5 mg supplementation will not mask vitamin B12 deficiency
(pernicious anemia), and investigations (examination or laboratory) are not
required prior to initiating supplementation. (II-2-A)

• 6. The recommended strategy to prevent recurrence of a congenital anomaly
(anencephaly, myelomeningocele, meningocele, oral facial cleft, structural heart
disease, limb defect, urinary tract anomaly, hydrocephalus) that has been
reported to have a decreased incidence following preconception / first
trimester folic acid +/- multivitamin oral supplementation is planned pregnancy
+/- supplementation compliance. A folate-supplemented diet with additional
daily supplementation of multivitamins with 5 mg folic acid should begin at least
three months before conception and continue until 10 to 12 weeks post
conception. From 12 weeks post-conception and continuing throughout
pregnancy and the postpartum period (4–6 weeks or as long as breastfeeding
continues), supplementation should consist of a multivitamin with folic acid
(0.4–1.0 mg). (I-A) J Obstet Gynaecol Can. 2007;29(12):1003-13
JOINT SOGC-MOTHERISK CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINE Recommendations• 7. The recommended strategy(ies) for primary prevention or to decrease
the incidence of fetal congenital anomalies will include a number of options
or treatment approaches depending on patient age, ethnicity, compliance,
and genetic congenital anomaly risk status.
• Option A: Patients with no personal health risks, planned pregnancy, and
good compliance require a good diet of folate-rich foods and daily
supplementation with a multivitamin with folic acid (0.4–1.0 mg) for at least
two to three months before conception and throughout pregnancy and the
postpartum period (4–6 weeks and as long as breastfeeding continues). (II-
2-A)J Obstet Gynaecol Can. 2007;29(12):1003-13
JOINT SOGC-MOTHERISK CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINE Recommendations• Option B: Patients with health risks, including epilepsy, insulin
dependent diabetes, obesity with BMI >35 kg/m2, family history of
neural tube defect, belonging to a high-risk ethnic group (e.g., Sikh)
require increased dietary intake of folate-rich foods and daily
supplementation, with multivitamins with 5 mg folic acid, beginning at
least three months before conception and continuing until 10 to 12
weeks post conception. From 12 weeks post-conception and continuing
throughout pregnancy and the postpartum period (4–6 weeks or as
long as breastfeeding continues), supplementation should consist of a
multivitamin with folic acid (0.4–1.0 mg). (II-2-A)
J Obstet Gynaecol Can. 2007;29(12):1003-13
JOINT SOGC-MOTHERISK CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINE RecommendationsOption C: Patients who have a history of poor compliance with medications and
additional lifestyle issues of variable diet, no consistent birth control, and possible
teratogenic substance use (alcohol, tobacco, recreational non-prescription drugs)
require counselling about the prevention of birth defects and health problems with
folic acid and multivitamin supplementation. The higher dose folic acid strategy (5 mg)
with multivitamin should be used, as it may obtain a more adequate serum red blood cell
folate level with irregular vitamin / folic acid intake but with a minimal additional
health risk. (III-B)
J Obstet Gynaecol Can. 2007;29(12):1003-13
JOINT SOGC-MOTHERISK CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINE Recommendations8.The Canadian Federal Government could consider an evaluation process for the
benefit/risk of increasing the level of national folic acid flour fortification to 300 mg/100
g (present level 140 mg/100 g). (III-B)
9.The Canadian Federal Government could consider an evaluation process for the
benefit/risk of additional flour fortification with multivitamins other than folic acid. (III-
B)
10.The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada will explore the possibility of
a Canadian Consensus conference on the use of folic acid and multivitamins for the primary
prevention of specific congenital anomalies.
The conference would include Health Canada/Congenital Anomalies Surveillance, Canadian
College of Medical Geneticists, Canadian Paediatric Society, Motherisk, and pharmaceutical
industry representatives.
