    Hi all,

    I'm currently 6 weeks pregnant and looking at getting together a diet plan for the rest of the pregnancy.

    I herd that the next few weeks are crucial for the child's developement, and being in the USA I need to make sure that I get hold of the right ingredients to cook for myself.

    Please feel free to share any recipies and your personal diet plans when you were pregnant?

    Thanks a lot!

    Hi Sanjitha,

    Congratulations!!!

    During my pregnancy, I had a normal meal, nothing extra.

    Few things to avoid:

    1. Mango
    2. Papaya
    3. Use sunflower oil for cooking (Other oil such as rapseed oil are too hot for the body)


    Things I had more:

    1. I could not drink coffee, so I switched to drinking choclate
    2. I had milk regularly
    3. I like veggies, so I used to eat less quantity of rice and stuff with vegetables
    4. I took Folic acid tablets during the first three months

    Hey!

    You should definitely read through this feature.

    Pregnancy Diet: Eat Healthy during Pregnancy

    It has got a whole list of foods and beverages that are good during this time for us mommies. I, for one, most definitely liked this detailed article. It will help me chalk out my diet plan better.

    Also if you have gestational diabetes or high blood pressure - it tells you what to eat then.
