Eating for Two : Healthy Pregnancy Nutrition Tips

9 Eating Dos and Don'ts

Do

• Try new fruits and veggies each week to maximize your intake of vitamins (brightly colored types pack the most nutrition).

• Skip empty-calorie snacks in favor of nutrient-packed mini-meals.

• Give in to cravings now and again, as long as you aim for healthy fare the rest of the day.

• Take prenatal vitamins, preferably at night when iron is best absorbed.

• Follow sound food-safety practices: Wash produce well, cook meats thoroughly, and throw away any questionable leftovers.

Don't

• Follow fad diets to slow or limit weight gain.

• Give yourself permission to constantly overeat.

• Consume alcohol.

• Take any extra supplements or vitamins without consulting your doctor.

• Eat excessively salty foods; they can cause water retention and block calcium absorption.

Hmmm... That's about it! :)

Ehh! Eventhough I just copy & paste the info here... Pelik lah pulak. The title briefly described it as 9 Eating Dos and Don'ts but what I can see here, there are 10 points bukan 9! Hohoho. Ape² jer lahh... Asalkan info nih berguna! Kan kan? :D

Mummy&Daddy-to-be Update(s)

• Since Hubby decided to see the Doctor & bukak buku "mengandung" (betul ke ekk nama buku tuh? Hehe!) sometime next week or the following week (when I'm in my 9th or 10th Week of Pregnancy), so I have yet to buy any vitamins for myself and Baby Jr. Haih! I know I should already bought the vits by now but susah laa nak pilih. I takot salah pilih jerrr. You know, we want the best for Baby Jr. He/She is in fact, our very FIRST child! :) (Could it be two? Sometimes I feel as if we're having twins! Haha! :P)
  
• Ohh so far, I'm only taking FA (Folic Acid) and Obimin (the Doctor gave me this when I first confirmed my pregnancy!) everyday. Anddd that's it! Just 2 vits! Huhuhu. Any ideas? Any suggestions?? Do let me know ya! Thank youuu... :)

P.S. During our chit-chat sessions via YM, the Mama-to-be-in-2-Weeks, Iza advised me to take Folic Acid, Obimin, Calcium, Iron, Vitamin C, Multivits and any vits yang Doctor kasi... BUT yesss, to avoid Vitamin A instead! Vitamin A is not good for the baby tau... Thank you for the info, Dear... :)
