Contrary to popular belief, pregnant women should not "eat for two". This can even be counterproductive, especially in the first trimester of pregnancy, which means that an increase in the number of calories can be dispensed with completely within the first three months. However, you should not consume less, as otherwise the risk of miscarriage or developmental defects of the child increases significantly.

In the second and third trimester, however, calorie intake should be increased slightly. For an averagely heavy woman with a BMI in the normal range, an increase of about 250 calories from the third to the sixth month and an increase of about 500 calories from the sixth to the ninth month is recommended, which is between 2500 and 2700 calories daily. So they don't "eat for two", but for one and a fifth or quarter.
