Early pregnancy
If you are in early pregnancy, a well-balanced diet is of top priority to your daily nutrient intake. During the first trimester, pregnant women are recommended to have high-quality protein and a moderate supplement of folic acid instead of taking high calorie food.

According to a gynecologist, ideally pregnant women should start taking 400 mcg of folic acid per day three months before conceiving or, as soon as you confirm your pregnancy. Continue taking daily folic acid to the end of your first trimester.
