In addition to vegetables, fruit is an important source of vitamins and nutrients for expectant mothers. As long as the fruit is fresh and well washed, you can use whatever variety you feel like. The body enjoys two to three portions of fruit a day. Apples, seasonal berries, kiwis and bananas always work, cranberries or pomegranates provide a particularly high amount of vitamins, and dried fruit, such as figs or dates, satisfies your craving for sweets.
