On page 225, Abstract, Results subheading, “Although not statistically significant, women in the intervention group (6/15) were 1.7 times more likely to achieve appropriate weekly GWG until delivery when compared with controls (4/16 women) (adjusted incidence rate ratio = 1.67; 95% CI: 0.40, 6.94).” should read “Although not statistically significant, women in the
intervention group (6/15) were 1.7 times more likely to achieve appropriate total GWG until delivery when compared with controls (4/16 women) (adjusted incidence rate ratio = 1.67; 95% CI: 0.40, 6.94).”


Appropriate GWG (baseline to delivery) section, 2nd to 4th line on page 230, “Forty percent (6/15) of women in the intervention
achieved appropriate GWG/week compared with 25%(4/16) in the control group.” should read “Forty percent (6/15) of
women in the intervention achieved appropriate total GWG compared with 25% (4/16) in the control group.”
