Lakshmi replied. She has to keep herself hydrated by drinking plenty of water.She can take plenty of fruits and green vegetables. Junk foods and sweets can be avoided.She has to take prenatal vitamins daily. Prenatal vitamins will have folic acid in it which is very essential for the baby. She has to take milk for the baby' s bone development. otherwise its normal diet and activeness that would keep her and the baby healthy sowdha replied. Hi Ajay,

sowdha Sujata replied. Hi Ajay ,
so nice to see your concern and though your wife is pregnant , your role also starts at this point . First of all just try and keep her happy all the times since she will be already worked up with lot of nausea & morning sickness shortly and try and go out for walks with her and do not force her for having food , let her eat the way she wants ( we normally try & force to eat all the meals in one time but its really not possible to eat all the time )so let her have sort 6 meals a day. mahajan replied. hey ajjay gr8 to kno that ur so concerned bout ur wife. plz take care of her by keeping her happy all times...coz this time alot of mood swings happen...also stop eating out ,stick to healthy diet ...small food portions at regular intervals...keep consulting your doctor...maitain a good hygine in the house ...also avoid lifting weights and bending .....an enjoy the feelong to the maximum...pamper ur wife with sum nice gifts an flowers ...put some baby posters in the house....an evrythin wld be well...so dont worry much....all the best an tak care..

diet during pregnancy

During this time, your body needs additional nutrients, vitamins and minerals.

In fact, you may need 350–500 extra calories each day during the second and third trimesters.

A diet lacking in key nutrients may negatively affect the baby’s development.
