INTRODUCTION: The risk of adverse birth outcomes, such as low birth weight ( 0.05). We found no effect of MMN or MQ-LNS on maternal haemoglobin concentration or anaemia in the second and third trimesters (p values >0.05). CONCLUSION: There was no statistically significant difference in birth weight, maternal weight gain or anaemia by prenatal nutritional supplementation strategy. However, statistical power in the trial was limited. A combination of strategies may be required to make large improvements in birth and pregnancy outcomes in rural Niger
