pregnant women are interested in nutrition. The Baby needs good and balanced nutrition, in order to help the natural growth of the fetus, so they are looking for best food for their baby. The pregnant women dependent on a lot of resources to take her information . First, her mother gives her a alot of traditional foods about pregnancy food. For example, one of the important food in KSA is dates with milk , also hot water with honey or milk with honey. These foods help the pregnant women and give her all food items, also help her during childbirth and after it
Second, they use books or the internet to find good information about pregnancy food . Most pregnant women put pictures of the food pyramid on refrigerator to organize their meals.
Finally, the most importance eat gobs of fruits and vegetables during the period of pregnancy and don't eat up more than you need becuse many people consider the pregnant needs eat for two person and this is wrong
I think one of the most important things we focus on in the US during pregnancy is getting the proper amount of iron. And, come to think of it, this is also true in KSA because dates are a rich source of iron. There is also a lot of focus here on avoiding alcohol and caffeine while pregnant. You made me laugh when you wrote about the saying "a pregnant woman needs to eat for two." Is this also a common statement in the KSA?
