Diet in Pregnancy

Abstract

Every young girl dreams of becoming a mother after marriage. She looks forward to this period with the utmost hope and joy to see that her child develops well in her womb, has no birth defects and grows up well, so that she can be a proud mother of that child. To achieve that objective she is willing to do anything so that she can provide all that her growing child needs while in her womb.

Realising that they are responsible for the nutritional well being of a child who is completely dependent, every lady must utilise pregnancy as a time for making some changes in her diet in what she eats. But it may be too late if care is not taken in time as optimal nutrition actually long begins before conception. Her ovum must be normal with no defects.. If there are defects the ovum may not get incorporated. So if you are not yet pregnant but plan to be now is the time to review what is important in your diet and get yourself into tip top nutritional shape.
