What should I eat during pregnancy?

To ensure the proper development of your growing fetus, you need to eat a healthy and diversified diet. Your golden rule during pregnancy: balance your meals!

  • Your daily intake should include proteins, starches, vegetables, fruits, and fats.
  • Green leafy vegetables such as spinach, watercress, and chard provide vitamin B9, which is essential, especially during the first trimester.
  • Twice a week, eat fish that is not contaminated with mercury, such as sardines, salmon, trout, mackerel, or sole.
  • Finally, stay hydrated by drinking at least 1.5 liters of water a day.

Some moms are going wild in my messages. I made a list of foods I was told to avoid vs foods that make me vomit. None of which I said you can’t have during pregnancy. It was just about me and what I’ve experienced. Yes, a few days ago I did eat a pineapple and I throw that up too. It caused me a lot of pain true enough. I wanted it. I ate it. I knew it wasn’t a good choice but I also knew I wasn’t going to die. Certain foods cause me discomfort but they aren’t harmful to my son. I was just sharing my experiences and what my doctor recommended for me to stay away from due to my digestive disorder and diabetes and foods I literally still can’t tolerate at 5 months. That’s it. Carry on 🤞🏽🥰

Oh I don’t. It’s just funny. Got to remember this is a platform that’s disposable to people of all walks of life .. Everyone has an opinion .. It’s rare I get a negative comment but it’s so much love on support on this app the negative comments get dismissed .. Pregnancy is different for everyone .. No one is “right!” It’s all love 💕

Can't eat or smell certain foods, even early in pregnancy. If Jesus ruins bacon for me, I swear I'll have a full blown melt down. 😩
