Brief Summary   This study is a randomized, double blind, parallel group, single- centre trial to study the role of vitamin D supplementation during pregnancy in preventing adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. Planned to enroll 280 women. Vitamin D level will be assessed. Patients will be randomized to receive 60000 IU/d of vitamin D for 5 days or a similar looking placebo for 5 days. All the women will be followed through pregnancy and incidence of preeclampsia, gestational diabetes mellitus, gall bladder dysfunction and intrauterine growth restriction, duration of gestation will be compared in either groups. At birth neonatal anthropometry and apgar score will be compared between two groups
