Gen. James Longstreet, brought Lee's army within 35 miles of the Union capital by the end of August. Jackson, who had burned the Federal supply depot at Manassas Junction on August 27th, waited for the arriving Union army just west of the old Bull Run battlefield. Longstreet, trailing Jackson, fought his way eastward through Thoroughfare Gap the next day.
Pregnant women require an extra 300 calories a day during the second and third trimester. Eating healthily is key to feeling well and optimizing your health but even more so during pregnancy. If you are pregnant, what you eat not only affects you but it also affects the health of your baby.
Determine the amount of calories you should eat by using the number of calories you used to eat to maintain your weight prior to your pregnancy and then add an extra 100 calories to support your pregnancy. For most women, 2,300 to 2,500 calories a day is a good range to aim for during the first trimester. It is normal for pregnant women in their second or third trimester to be hungrier because their baby needs more fuel to develop at this stage.
