frequently asked questions

A balanced diet is key! Focus on:
✔ Whole foods: Fresh fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats.
✔ Hydration: Aim for 8–10 glasses of water daily.
✔ Key nutrients: Folate (leafy greens), iron (lean meats, lentils), calcium (dairy or fortified alternatives), and omega-3s (chia seeds, walnuts).
We’ll create a personalized meal plan during antenatal visits to meet your unique needs!

Yes! Even with a balanced diet, prenatal vitamins help fill gaps in critical nutrients like folic acid, iron, and vitamin D, which support fetal development and maternal health. We’ll recommend trusted brands and advise on proper dosages.

Absolutely! Gentle exercise benefits both you and your baby:
✔ Safe activities: Walking, prenatal yoga, swimming, and pelvic floor exercises.
✔ Avoid: High-impact sports, hot yoga, or activities with fall risks.
We’ll tailor a fitness plan based on your trimester, fitness level, and health status.

Steer clear of:
🚫 Raw/undercooked foods: Sushi, rare meats, or unpasteurized dairy (risk of bacteria).
🚫 High-mercury fish: Shark, swordfish, or tuna (opt for salmon or sardines instead).
🚫 Excess caffeine: Limit to 200mg/day (about one 12-ounce coffee).
Breastfeeding? We’ll guide you on foods that support milk supply and baby’s digestion.

Small shifts make a big difference:
🌿 Rest: Prioritize naps and 7–9 hours of sleep nightly.
🌿 Mindfulness: Try prenatal meditation, deep breathing, or gentle stretches.
🌿 Delegate tasks: Don’t hesitate to ask for help—your well-being matters!
We also offer relaxation techniques and referrals to prenatal wellness experts if needed.
