Summary

The MAMAS study is built on the premise that simple recommendations for diet and exercise may not be enough to encourage healthy weight gain during pregnancy. Psychological skills training may be necessary to help women deal with stress and cravings; learn to regulate difficult emotions; increase awareness; and encourage healthy eating and physical activity. The goal of this study is to find out whether a behavioral stress reduction intervention can help women achieve healthy weight gain during pregnancy and reduce stress.
