    One of the best things you can take when pregnant besides your prenatal vitamins is omega
    Try to eat healthy meals three times a day even if you can't eat a lot.

    Appetites often fluctuate throughout pregnancy... some women find grazng throughout the day works well. This helps regulate blood pressure and helps keep blood sugar levels in check as well and the smaller meals are often easier on the digestive system which becomes a bit sluggish in pregnancy.
    Make a list of easy foods to eat that you can have throughout the day... maybe wander the aisles of the supermarket and pick up things that look good to you. Don't worry about not liking milk, there are many other sources for the nutrients it provides. Look for a variety of foods and be sure to stay well hydrated with fluids. There is nothing wrong with eating spicy foods as long as you are not suffering heartburn or an upset stomach due to them.

    Try to stay away from fried food. Eat as much fruits as possible, at least 5 servings a day. Stay away from caffeine products, such as soda and coffee. Much importantly drink plenty of fluids. To ensure your getting enough, drink at least 1-2 cups an hour. You will have to use the bathroom a lot but its necessary. Also, Unpasteurized juices, such as cider purchased from roadside stands, at farms, or in stores. These products are prone to germs, including E. coli. Check the label to be sure juice is pasteurized.
