It is very important to eat well during your pregnancy, because your baby gets his or her food from you. The food pyramid is a guide you should follow to maintain a balanced, healthy diet for you and your baby. Choose foods that are good for you and your baby's development.
Fluids Drink at least six eight-ounce glasses of water, milk or juice every day.
