Wondering what to eat to give your baby the best start during pregnancy?

We've created six weekly meal planners to help you get the right balance of nutrition for a healthy pregnancy. There are two easy planners to follow for each trimester, so you'll have plenty of choice.

Each planner features a variety of delicious snacks and dishes that are just right for your stage of pregnancy.

First trimester weekly meal planners

Our first trimester weekly planners have dishes that are rich in folate, which is great for your baby's developing nervous system. It also includes foods that contain vitamin B6, which can help your body use and store energy from protein and carbohydrates.

In planner two you'll also find iron-rich meals. Iron helps your blood to move oxygen around your body. It's essential in pregnancy, because your blood volume increases.
