What should I eat when pregnant ?

It’s important to stay hydrated, so try to boost the amount of water you drink each day.
Try and eat at least 5 portions of fruit and vegetables a day.
Every day, try to include 3-4 portions of carbohydrates. Things like bread, cereal, noodles, pasta, rice and potatoes.
Even better, go for wholegrain or whole wheat varieties. Making sure you're getting enough dairy and Vitamin D means your baby’s bones will harden as they develop. Dairy contains calcium and is found in food like yoghurt, milk and hard cheese.
What other pre-natal vitamins or supplements do I need?
You need to be at your healthiest when you’re pregnant or trying to conceive, so vitamins and minerals are even more important.
Vitamins A, C, D are the ones you need the most, and Iron is also at the top of the list because it needs time to build up throughout pregnancy.
Why should I be taking folic acid tablets?
Folic acid is totally natural and is a really good supplement when you’re expecting. It’s important for helping your baby’s spine to develop, even in the very early stages of pregnancy. It’s best to take folic acid while you’re trying to get pregnant, and continue taking it throughout your pregnancy.

It’s best to cut right back, as caffeine can affect the birth weight of your baby. Generally, a cup of tea or coffee a day is fine.
We know it’s hard but cut out fizzy drinks because the caffeine and sugar levels can be really high.

You shouldn’t drink any alcohol at all during pregnancy, as it could be harmful to your baby. By making the positive choice not to drink any alcohol while you’re pregnant or trying for a baby, you can feel confident that you’re helping to keep your baby safe and healthy.

There is no proof that reading or crying would lead to eye problems. However, TCM experts do hold that the large loss of blood during childbirth may weaken the eyes.
