Good evening..
- There is no restriction in food intake during pregnancy . Can have whatever u like.
- Can eat all types of fruits and vegetables. Eat what you like out of them. Don’t get forced to eat foods u don’t like . U should enjoy the food u eating then only baby also will enjoy them.
- no restriction with spices too.
- see if ur over weight or diabetes or Bp then u should restrict few food ..
- see that u should gain 0.5kgs per week and total pregnancy 11 kgs with weight and BMI normal .
Health Tips
Do not get stressed on what to eat .. eat everything u like and enjoy ur pregnancy..
