Question 1

what is the good diet in pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Well-balanced, fresh: There are many people in most OB offices who can provide pamphlets or list of links to recommended diets and recipes. Women should ask for these. Many of us recommend organic or locally grown food. Most suggest that women make their own food rather than buy mixes or processed products. The diet must be balanced and have the right amount of essential nutrients for pregnancy--see cdc, march of dimes.

Stock up on fresh!: This is a time to have fun with food. A balanced diet is key. A nutritionist or information provided by OB can lay out the number and type of calories.

Question 7

what are good ways to drop pounds after pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Lose pregnancy wt: My philosophy is that the best way to lose weight is not by dieting, but by changing your lifestyle to a healthier one. You don't need a drastic diet. Make small changes. Eat the right portions, eat 3-5 small meals a day, cut back on carbs and sugars, increase lean protein/veggie/fruit/water intake, and start doing some cardiovascular exercise. Work on doing a little of all of these.

Question 8

what are some good nutrition goals to have in pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Protein: Have a protein source with every meal to help keep blood sugars stable. Avoid too much sugar and simple carbohydrates and eat complex carbs and whole grains, and don't forget the veggies.  You need an extra 100-300 calories during pregnancy, so don't eat for two! a normal weight woman should only gain 25-35 lbs. Goal weight gain is less if you are overweight and more if you are underweight.

Accepted Answer

Friends/family: Identify those people who will suuport you, then don't be afraid to ask them for help if you need to.
