Not sure how to go about what to include in your pregnancy diet? We're about to tell you how to maintain a balanced diet between you & your baby

Eggs

Packed with protein and vitamins D and B12, these nutritional powerhouses are quick and easy to prepare. Try them scrambled or on top of lightly fried rice.

Dairy products

Low-fat milk, cheese and yoghurt are delicious sources of calcium. Try to drink milk a couple of times a day, and include a daily serving of yoghurt or cheese (made with pasteurised milk).

Nuts

Portable and non-perishable, nuts and nut butters are perfect on-the-go snacks and excellent sources of protein and healthy fat, which can aid in your baby's development. Almonds, peanuts and walnuts are all good selections.

Fruit

Whether fresh, frozen or tinned, fruit is high in vitamins and fibre, key in every pregnancy diet since it can help prevent constipation. Read the labels on tinned fruit carefully. Go for fruit packed in water rather than syrup.

Iron

You'll need a lot of it during pregnancy to keep up your energy and ward off anaemia. Stock up on lean meats, fortified cereals and spinach. Frozen spinach is especially affordable and easy to prepare; try mixing it into casseroles or pasta sauce.

If you're pregnant, your baby's development is on your mind all the time. Improving your diet during pregnancy is an easy way to enhance your baby's health. Chat to your doctor, shop carefully and try to avoid processed food whenever you can.
