Nutrition Rules for Pregnancy Diet
During pregnancy, it’s essential to consciously approach food consumption and prioritize nourishing your body with wholesome, natural foods. Here are some key nutrition rules by our specialists:
Meal Spacing
Meals should be spaced throughout the day to ensure steady energy levels and proper digestion. Aim for three main meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner) with the option of additional snacks if needed.
Meal Timing
The first meal should be within the first hour after waking up, and the last meal should be consumed 3-4 hours before sleep. The total volume of food per portion should range from 350-450g.
Healthy Snacking
If gastrointestinal issues arise, consider introducing additional snacks, such as mixed nuts, fruits, or dairy products, between meals. However, snacks should be consumed mindfully and not as substitutes for meals.
Hydration
Focus on staying hydrated with water, herbal teas, and smoothies. Staying hydrated throughout the day is key for both digestion and maintaining amniotic fluid levels.
Healthy Food for Pregnancy: Keeping Food Real and Natural
Our obstetrics and gynecology clinic emphasizes the importance of consuming fresh, minimally processed foods to support optimal health during pregnancy. Here are guidelines to keep your meals real and natural:
Well-Composed Meals
Consume well-balanced meals that contain fiber, protein, fats, carbs, and important nutrients. Include whole grains, lean meats, leafy greens, fresh veggies, and fruits in your diet.
Oils For Healthful Cooking
Use unrefined, cold-pressed oils like ghee or coconut for cooking. These oils are more suitable for high-heat cooking techniques and are also healthier.
Limit Processed Foods And Sugar
Cut out processed meals and sugary snacks from your diet. Rather, go for homemade snacks made with healthy food and natural sweeteners.
Smart Eating Habits Included in Our Pregnancy Meal Plan
During pregnancy, adopting smart eating habits that support maternal and fetal health is essential. Here are some tips to help you make nutritious choices:
Dairy Delights
Enjoy dairy products such as kefir, cottage cheese, and yogurt in moderation. Choose options with lower fat content (2-5%) and avoid varieties with added starch or palm oil.
Cheese & Sausage
Opt for homemade versions of cheese and sausages to avoid additives and preservatives. Choose cheese with lower fat content and prioritize homemade options for optimal nutrition.
Avoid Alcohol
It’s important to abstain from alcohol entirely during pregnancy to ensure the health and safety of your baby.
Snack Smart
Say no to unhealthy snacks such as chips, fast food, and fizzy drinks. Instead, opt for homemade snacks made with wholesome ingredients.
Occasional Baking
Limit maximum baking to twice a week and opt for whole grain flour for added nutrition. Enjoy bread in moderation but limit other flour-based foods.
Fruity Treats
Limit fruit puree pastilles to 50g daily to manage sugar intake and support balanced nutrition.
Tea & Coffee
Enjoy tea and coffee in moderation and consume time an hour before or after meals for optimal digestion.
