Pregnancy as one of the critical stages of life carries a high risk to the health of pregnant women. The amount of weight gained during pregnancy can affect the woman and her infant health immediately or in the future. The present study is conducted to design and explore the effectiveness of an educational intervention based on health belief model (HBM) to preventing excessive gestational weight gain (GWG).
This research-based planning is designed in three phases and will be conducted on pregnant women in first trimester. In the first phase of this randomized controlled trial study, body mass index (BMI), the level of knowledge and the level of the HBM constructs will be measured using a questionnaire. The HBM questionnaire is designed based on a literature review and experts opinions. In the next phase the educational program content will be designed based on the results of the first phase of the study on the level of women's knowledge, and HBM constructs as well as a literature review and experts opinions. The intervention will be designed in four training sessions about the importance of behaviors, especially physical activity and nutrition, in the prevention of excessive weight gain during pregnancy. The tired phase includes the implementation of educational intervention with two intervention and control groups. The efficacy of the program will be evaluated by measuring the level of the knowledge, HBM constructs and women's weight gain during pregnancy in the second and third trimesters. Appreciate weight gain will be considered according to the BMI in first trimester.
The present study will provide strong information regarding the effetiness of the HBM and appropriate framework to develop educational interventions together with enhancing pregnant women's knowledge and belief toward weight management behaviors.

妊娠是生命中的一个关键阶段，对孕妇的健康存在较高风险。怀孕期间体重的增加量可能会立即或在未来影响女性及其婴儿的健康。本研究旨在设计并探索基于健康信念模型（HBM）的教育干预措施，以预防妊娠体重过度增加（GWG）。
本研究基于规划设计，分为三个阶段，将在妊娠早期的孕妇中进行。在这项随机对照试验研究的第一阶段，将使用问卷测量体重指数（BMI）、知识水平和 HBM 结构水平。HBM 问卷是基于文献回顾和专家意见设计的。在接下来的阶段，将根据第一阶段研究中关于女性知识水平和 HBM 结构水平的结果以及文献回顾和专家意见设计教育计划内容。干预措施将设计为关于行为重要性的四个培训课程，特别是在预防妊娠期间过度体重增加方面的身体活动和营养。疲劳阶段包括实施教育干预，有两个干预组和对照组。将在第二和第三孕期测量知识水平、HBM 结构和女性体重增加来评估该计划的效果。将根据第一孕期的 BMI 考虑体重增加的情况。
本研究将提供有关 HBM 的有效性的有力信息，并为制定教育干预措施提供适当的框架，同时增强孕妇对体重管理行为的知识和信念。
