Nutrition for Pregnant Women in Santa Pola
DIET FOR PREGNANCY
During pregnancy, nutrition plays an essential role, as it covers our energy needs not only for the pregnant woman but also influences the health and well-being of the unborn child.
A nutrition consultation for pregnant women does not consist of designing a special, restrictive diet, or directly eliminating the consumption of certain foods unless there is a medical or nutritional problem; it is about adjusting the diet to the physiological state and personal characteristics of the mother in question.
In consultation we will address all doubts about nutrition at this stage:
- How much weight should I lift?
- What foods should I avoid?
- Should we “eat for two”?
- Do I have to take supplements?
- What foods change the taste of milk?
- and a long etcetera that every pregnant woman wonders…
During the first consultation, we will conduct a nutritional questionnaire to collect both pathological and nutritional data. This will help improve the quality of the mother’s diet and promote the baby’s growth and development.
We will carry out check-ups once a month to address any problems or symptoms that may arise and make the relevant adjustments to the diet with the aim of always improving the health of the mother, the quality of the placenta, maintaining a good energy level throughout the pregnancy, and preventing and reducing problems such as gestational diabetes, obesity, hypertension and preeclampsia, vomiting or nausea, reflux, anemia, fluid retention, constipation or even premature births.
During breastfeeding, the mother’s diet must be fully aligned with the nutritional requirements of both her and her baby, and these needs will evolve as the newborn’s needs change. Therefore, the goal is simply to meet these energy demands in both the quantity and quality of the diet, in order to achieve the best possible breast milk production.
By taking care of your diet, you will be taking care of your baby’s health.
