Help us improve pregnancy weight management

Have you recently found out that you are pregnant?

Are you interested in managing your weight gain during pregnancy?

We are looking for women who are pregnant and interested in managing their weight gain during pregnancy, to take part in a new online study.

The study will test a newly developed mobile application designed to support women during pregnancy to gain weight within the recommended range, through regular self-weighing, feedback, and advice. 

Who can take part?

To be eligible to take part in the study you must:

  • Be 18 years of age or older
  • Be pregnant before 20 weeks and with no more than one baby
  • Be able to access the internet with a smartphone and/or tablet
  • Have access to weighing scales
  • Be able to communicate in English

Participants who take part in the study will be entered into a draw to win and eight of them will win a baby bundle worth at least £100.

Interested in taking part?
