Pregnancy Nutrition and Diet Guidance
Pregnancy nutrition isn’t about doubling your plate. It’s about choosing the right foods, in the right amounts, so your body and your baby get exactly what’s needed at every stage.
Our specialists at Angel Care Hospital will assess your nutritional needs throughout pregnancy, identify nutritional deficiencies early and create the proper eating balance for you.
What is Pregnancy Nutrition Guidance?
At our prenatal nutrition care hospital in Dwarka, we provide practical, everyday dietary recommendations. We will discuss the foods you can eat, the foods you have to avoid and the ways to manage morning sickness, cravings or gestational diabetes. Good nutrition supports healthy development of the baby, provides sufficient energy for the mother, and maintains a normal pregnancy weight.
Who Should Consult?
- Pregnant women wishing for a consultation on pregnancy diet in Dwarka
- Pregnant women experiencing iron or vitamin deficiencies, fatigue or poor health during pregnancy

- Women suffering from gestational diabetes and needing an individual nutrition plan
- Underweight or overweight women and those having twins/multiples

Important Nutrients during Pregnancy
- Folic Acid: Very important during the first trimester, especially for the formation of the baby’s brain and spine. Sources include green vegetables, legumes, and grain products.
- Iron: Prevents anaemia. It’s found in spinach, lentils, meats and cereals.
- Calcium: Strengthens bones and teeth. Include dairy, sesame and ragi in your diet.
- Vitamin D: Vitamin D helps the body use calcium properly and keeps bones strong. Natural sources include eggs, fortified foods like milk or cereals and sunlight. Sometimes, if levels are low, the doctor may suggest a supplement.
- Iodine: Required for the baby’s thyroid and brain development; iodised salt is an adequate source.
- Proteins: Vital for the growth and development of your baby and for maintaining your health during pregnancy. Include pulses, dairy, eggs and lean meat in your diet.
- Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Vital for your baby’s brain and eye development. Sources include walnuts, flaxseeds and low mercury fish.

How much weight should I gain?
Think of it this way: how much weight you should gain in pregnancy isn’t the same for everyone. It depends on your pre‑pregnancy weight and BMI. Doctors look at these factors and then suggest a safe range that suits your body. The advice also changes if you’re carrying one baby or twins/multiples.
Should I use nutritional supplements?
During pregnancy, doctors often suggest supplements. The most common is folic acid, which helps the baby’s brain and spine grow well. Depending on diet and health, you may also need iron to prevent anaemia, calcium for strong bones and teeth, and vitamin D to help the body use calcium.
What food should I avoid?
Avoid unpasteurised milk and cheeses, raw or undercooked eggs and meat, fish with high mercury content, excessive caffeine, alcohol and unhygienic food.
I am vegetarian - Will my baby get everything he/she needs?
Yes, a vegetarian diet can meet the needs of pregnancy if it’s planned carefully. You need to include the correct mix of foods and add supplements when needed.
When should I start thinking about nutrition?
Ideally, before conception. You should start taking folic acid one month before. If you are already pregnant, the first prenatal consultation is the best time for it.
What foods should I avoid during pregnancy?
Avoid raw fish and shellfish during pregnancy. They may carry germs that are the reason behind infections. Cooked options are safe.
