Everything that you put into your body during your pregnancy can affect the health of your baby. Your body is providing that growing fetus with all of the nutrition it requires for growth and development. Pregnant diets should start even before pregnancy, and continue through until delivery of your baby. Even before you experience the first signs of being pregnant and know there is a baby inside of you, your baby is receiving nutrients from your body. Taking folic acid as a supplement prior to conceiving your baby will make sure that enough is available to support healthy development and avoid birth defects such as spina bifida. A healthy diet during pregnancy includes the right number of servings from each of the food groups. Aim for nine servings of healthy whole grains, three servings of fruits, four servings of vegetables, and three servings each of proteins such as lean meats and dairy products.You should also ensure adequate fluid intake to stay hydrated and avoid constipation. Your diet might change as your progress through your pregnancy month by month , but the important thing to remember is to eat as balanced and varied diet to get as many nutrients to your baby as possible. Early in the pregnancy this can be difficult due to nausea, but do your best. In the later stages, it becomes more important to add an extra 300 calories per day to help your baby grow. Along with your diet, it's a good idea to make some lifestyle changes, such as engaging in safe exercise for pregnant women to keep you feeling your best. You will need to give up unhealthy habits such as smoking and drinking alcohol or caffeine for your baby's health.
