Nutrition Tips for Moms-to-Be
Good nutrition is one of the most important parts of a healthy pregnancy. What you eat during this time plays a big role in your baby’s development and your overall well-being.
At Matrutvam Women’s Multispeciality Hospital, we support mothers with expert advice, balanced meal plans, and personalized care. As a dedicated women’s hospital, we make sure that every mom-to-be gets the right guidance for a food healthy pregnancy.
Why Nutrition Matters During Pregnancy
Your baby depends on you for nutrients. A balanced diet helps you:
Fight tiredness
Support healthy baby growth
Maintain a healthy weight
Lower the risk of pregnancy complications
Eating well is not just good for your body it helps your baby too.
What to Include in a Healthy Pregnancy Diet
1. Protein-Rich Foods
Protein helps your baby grow strong muscles and organs. Add these to your meals:
Eggs
Dal (lentils)
Paneer
Chicken or fish (well-cooked)
Nuts and seeds
2. Carbohydrates Foods for Energy
Your body needs energy during pregnancy. Choose healthy carbohydrates foods like:
Whole wheat roti
Brown rice
Oats
Sweet potatoes

Citrus fruits
Supplements (only if your doctor recommends them)
4. Fluids and Water
Drink 8–10 glasses of water daily. Include:
Coconut water
