It's best to get vitamins and minerals from the foods you eat, but when you're pregnant you need to take some supplements as well, to make sure you get everything you need. Read more about vitamins and supplements in pregnancy. There are also certain foods that should be avoided in pregnancy. You will probably find that you are hungrier than usual, but you don't need to "eat for two" – even if you are expecting twins or triplets. Have a healthy breakfast every day, because this can help you to avoid snacking on foods that are high in fat and sugar. Eating healthily often means just changing the amounts of different foods you eat so that your diet is varied, rather than cutting out all your favourites. You can use the Eatwell Guide to get the balance of your diet right. The eatwell plate shows you how much to eat from each food group. You will need to be careful with your diet if you develop gestational diabetes – your doctor or midwife will advise you.
