This paper presents an RCT protocol to determine the feasibility of an mHealth intervention to promote healthy nutrition, physical activity and weight gain in pregnant women who were overweight or obese prior to pregnancy.
Previous authors have called for high-quality RCTs promoting healthy GWG grounded in health behaviour
theoretical frameworks with adequate sample sizes and
feasibility for translation to public health settings [15,23].
If effective, this mHealth intervention offers a programme
that could be delivered for large numbers of pregnant
women
