Eating for Two?

Did you know that during pregnancy you do not need to eat necessarily for 2?

First trimester you only need 10 extra calories in your diet.

Second trimester it is recommended to have 350 extra calories

Third trimester you only need an additional 450 calories to you diet then before you were pregnant!

Many times women may feel they need to eat a lot to support the babies growth but really only an additional peanut butter and jelly sandwich, piece of fruit and yogurt is all that is needed during your 3rd trimester.

A balanced diet with lots of fruits and vegetables is key during pregnancy. Vitamins and Minerals in your food are really helping your baby grow and develop healthy.
