Diet during Pregnancy

Pregnancy is a period of great physiological as well as psychological stress for the women. She has to maintain her health at optimum level to prepare for delivery and lactation and also to provide good nutrition for the development of the foetus. Adequate nutrition before and during pregnancy is very important for a long-term health. Good nutrition during pregnancy is essential if you want to prevent problems like anemia, hemorrhage, dizziness, nausea, low blood pressure, fatigue etc. It also ensures that your baby is getting the nutrients he/she needs to grow inside the womb.

A woman who has been well nourished before conception begins her pregnancy with reserves of several nutrients so that the needs of the growing foetus can be met without affecting her health. Infants, who are well nourished in the womb, have an enhanced chance of entering life in good health. Mother' s diet should produce adequate nutrients so that maternal stores do not get depleted and produce sufficient milk to nourish her child after birth.
