Teen Pregnancy

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.
