During pregnancy you need extra energy and nutrients. You will need to eat regular meals with a variety of foods.
Despite the common saying you do not need to eat for two. In fact you only need about 300 additional calories per day.
Your nutrition during pregnancy can help your baby’s health. Following a healthy balanced diet as well as looking out for the foods to avoid while pregnant will help to keep you and your baby healthy throughout this journey.
