A healthy pregnancy diet combines vegetables, fruit, whole grains, protein and dairy. Counselling on healthy eating and staying active is a core WHO recommendation for a positive pregnancy experience.

Avoid raw or undercooked meat and eggs, unpasteurized dairy, and high-mercury fish. Simple food hygiene protects you from infections that can affect the baby.

Pregnancy hormones make gums more sensitive. Dental checkups are safe and recommended during pregnancy — untreated gum disease has been linked to complications.
