DIET DURING PREGNANCY

• You need to eat one extra meal a day during pregnancy.
• Take milk and dairy products like curd, buttermilk, paneer-these are rich in calcium, proteins and vitamins.
• Eat fresh/seasonal fruits and vegetables as these provide vitamins and iron. Cereals, whole grains and pulses are good sources of proteins.
• Green leafy vegetables are a rich source of iron and folic acid.
• A handful (45 grams) of nuts and at least two cups of daal provide daily requirement of proteins in vegetarians.

For non-vegetarians, meat, egg, chicken or fish are good sources of proteins, vitamins and iron. A well balanced diet consisting of a variety of food helps in the growth of the baby and prevents anaemia
