Food Menu for
Pregnant Women
Why Breakfast
IS IMPORTANT?
YES IT’S IMPORTANT

Breakfast gives you a much-needed energy boost after a


long stretch of ‘fasting’ during the night Your body has
been renewing and repairing itself overnight and, of
course, growing a baby.

Eating a healthy breakfast kick-starts your


metabolism and gives you the energy to get
through to lunch.
A morning meal also means you’re less
likely snack later in the day, or over-indulge
on not-so-healthy options when hunger hits
you.
WHAT’S FOR BREAKFAST?
CEREALS
WITH FRUITS
• Cereals containing high fiber and 100 percent of your
daily folic acid need include: Kellogg's All Bran, Total
Wheat Flakes, Total Corn Flakes, TotalRaisin Bran,
Product 19, Multigrain Cheerios, and Smart Start
• Fruits can provide vitamins, folate, fiber, and more,
which all help to keep the woman and baby healthy. 
• Milk is a highly recommended drink for mothers-to-be
because it is rich in calcium and protein. 
IT’S LUNCH TIME!
Eating healthy when you're
pregnant can be hard: You have
crazy cravings and an even
crazier schedule. But eating
right is important for your
growing baby, so check out
these nutritious, dietician-
approved meals. 
WHAT’S FOR LUNCH?
SINIGANG NA ISDA
Craving something sour? Good thing sinigang is
one of the healthiest food options a pregnant woman
can eat. Eating protein-rich sinigang na
isda helps in the brain and body development of
your baby. Choose salmon or milkfish, which
contains more omega-3 fatty acids than other types
of fish.
REMEMBER THAT
Eating a well-balanced diet is
essential during pregnancy.
Because you're eating also for
your baby in utero, you need to
ramp up your intake of vitamins
and minerals.

ALWAYS
REMEMBER
Your baby can absorb the
nutrients in the food you eat,
so you have to be very picky
with your food choices.
WHAT’S FOR DINNER?
TINOLANG MANOK
Found some chicken and sayote in the
ref? Whip up some tinola! Tinolang
manok with sayote is rich in folic acid, a
B vitamin crucial to DNA production and
reduction of the risk of birth defects.
Also, the chicken makes it a good source
of protein for the growth and
development of the baby inside your
womb. Add malunggay leaves, a
galactagogue (something that helps
increase milk supply), to tinola and you
have a dish that's good for lactating
moms. Taking in more liquids such as
soup also helps increase milk supply, too.
