I tried to give a list which might be helpful to you...This is a time you should try to eat healthier stuffs, of course it should be tasty too..
Make sure you don't eat any of the below in deep fried or cooked in oil...
Fruits - of any form is good
Vegetables - rich source of energy...
Spinach - rich source of iron
Meat/Chicken - rich source of protein
Nuts or dried fruits
Fiber rich food
Sprouts of any grains
Eggs (limit to one a day is always good)
sea food (prawn, fish)
Milk - rich calcium source
Also when you are carving for a fried item or so, you can eat them for taste not for hunger. please limit them so as to avoid later digestion issues since during pregnancy it is good not to take any over the counter medications other than the supplements...
Be sure to have six to eleven servings of breads and grains, two to four servings of fruit, four or more servings of vegetables, four servings of dairy and three servings of protein sources (meat, eggs, fish, poultry, or nuts).
• Eat plenty of high fiber foods like cereals, whole-grain bread, pastas, rice, fruits and vegetables.
• Eat at least three servings of iron-rich foods per day to ensure you are getting 27 mg of iron daily. • Dont forget to drink milk - calcium source
• It is also important to get at least one good source of Vitamin C because pregnant women should get about 70 mg of it in their bodies per day. God sources of Vitamin C include grapefruit, oranges, strawberries, cauliflower, broccoli, honey dew and papaya.
• Eat one source of Vitamin A every OTHER day. If you absorb too much of this vitamin it can cause fetal malformations. Good sources of Vitamin A include carrots, cantaloupe, pumpkins, sweet potatoes, spinach, and turnip and beet greens.
• Each pregnant woman should have 0.4mg of folic acid per day to help protect their baby from developing neural tube defects such as spina bifida. Good sources of folic acid are dark green leafy vegetables and legumes (lima beans, black beans, black-eyed peas and chickpeas).
Last one - dont forget your prenatal vitamins.
Thanks for reading...Have a healthy life...All the best!..
