Curious about carbs? Concerned about calories? Puzzled by protein? Now that you're eating for two (or more), you need to make sure you're getting the right balance of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients to keep you and your baby healthy. The Pregnancy Diet is designed to make achieving that balancing act easy — or, at least, easier.

The Pregnancy Diet is built around a few basic principles (which are actually pretty similar to the basic principles of healthy eating at any time in life): Avoid empty calories and junk food, provide your baby with a regular supply of good nutrients, and eat the right quantities of the right foods each day. The "right" foods fall neatly into 12 categories, and the ideal day (read: the one where you're not so queasy that you're only able to eat the same three foods over and over again) would include a certain number of portions from each. (Keep in mind that many foods overlap in two or more of these "daily dozen" categories, cutting down on the amount of food you need to eat from each.)

Of course, it's the rare woman who will follow the Pregnancy Diet every day, week in and week out, for all 40 weeks of her pregnancy. (Who could? What world does that woman live in?) Don't stress about it, and don't feel guilty about it — the diet is a framework for healthy eating, not a strict curriculum to follow (and you're not being graded). Follow it as closely as you can, as often as you can, to have the healthiest, most nutritious pregnancy possible.
