Brief Summary:
This study examines the link between health literacy, gestational weight gain, and infant birthweight in pregnant teenagers. A randomized trial of 50 participants will be conducted at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. Consent will be obtained from all participants. Both control and intervention groups will complete a 20 questions health literacy assessment at baseline and after eight weeks, along with the ASA24 dietary recall tool twice weekly. The intervention group will join a private social media group created solely for study purposes. This will be a private account, accessible only to participants who are added or invited by the study team.
Detailed Description:
This research study is to see if someone's ability to understand and use health information (health literacy) is linked to gaining a healthy amount of weight during pregnancy and having a baby with a healthy birth weight. The main question aims to answer if there is a positive correlation between increased health literacy, gestational weight gain, and adequate infant birth weight. We are conducting a prospective randomized trial involving 50 pregnant teenagers and their baby at a single institution. We will obtain study consent for 18 and 19 years old, and parental permission and assent for 13 -17 years old.
Control Group will complete the 20 questions health literacy during the first visit and after 8 weeks. Also, will complete the online called ASA 24 a 24-hour food recall tool. The ASA24 will be completed 2x /week for 8 weeks.
Intervention Group will complete the 20 questions health literacy during the first visit and after 8 weeks. Also, will complete the online called ASA 24 a 24-hour food recall tool. The ASA24 will be completed 2x /week for 8 weeks. In addition, participants assigned to the intervention group will be invited to participate in a private social media group. Participants will create a new account specifically for the study, or the study team can create an account on their behalf if they prefer. This will enable the study team to track participation without affecting any personal accounts. Education content will consist of published dietary recommendations during pregnancy, healthy craving hacks, healthy snacks, ways to get exercise in during the school day, etc. Participants will also be encouraged to ask questions and post any eating struggles.
