Study Summary

The purpose of the study is to test whether nutritional supplementation during pregnancy is associated with 1) improved maternal health during pregnancy; 2) improved infant birth and neurodevelopmental outcomes, and 3) whether the association between nutritional supplementation during pregnancy and infant outcomes is partially mediated by reductions in maternal perceived stress and stress reactivity during pregnancy.

Primary Outcome

Will be assessed at baseline and at 24, 30, and 36 weeks of pregnancy, and at 1, 4 and 9 months after giving birth. The Perceived Stress Scale score is obtained by summing the points awarded to the 10 items and it ranges from 0 to 40 where: 0-13 - Low stress 14-26 - Moderate stress 27-40 - High perceived stress
