Some important pointers

1. As there may be a feeling of nausea, a pregnant woman cannot have a full meal at one time, so it is necessary to go for frequent light meals.
2. Add quality protein, calcium, riboflavin and host of other nutrients by incorporating good amounts of milk, curds, paneer, dals, sprouts, dry fruits.
3. If you are a non-vegetarian, you can have egg/fish/lean chicken (twice a week).
4. Incorporate 3 bowls of vegetables a day, preferably one as a green leafy vegetable and a variety of other seasonal vegetables. Make a bowl of salad a part of your daily meal.
5. For fruits, opt for one starchy (banana, chickoo), one citrus, and one coloured / seasonal fruit.
6. Use wholegrain cereals like ragi flour, bajri, jowar, thalipeeth, and corn.
