Ideal body weight for pregnancy?

Ideal body weight for pregnancy?

I'm looking for a professional opinion about what the ideal body weight should be for a woman who is looking to get pregnant.  I'm 5 feet,5 inches tall and currently weigh 110 lbs.  Would this be a factor in my ability to get pregnant or carry a pregnancy to term?  If so, can you recommend a high calorie diet that would help me to gain weight as quickly as possible.  I am currently trying to follow the Canada Food Guide for recommended daily portions, but no matter how much I eat, I still have not been able to put on a few extra pounds.  Any suggestions?
