Healthy eating during pregnancy and breastfeeding is very important for mother and child. Eating a colorful variety of healthy foods throughout the day is the best way that you and your child are adequately supplied with all vitamins and minerals.

You will probably find that you are hungrier than usual, but you don't need to "eat for two". How much and what you need to eat and drink and what to better avoid is shown in the factsheet “Healthy eating during pregnancy and breastfeeding” as well as in the “Food chart for pregnant women”.
