- What are the foods to avoid during pregnancy and what should you eat more of when you are pregnant. Because while losing weight while pregnant isn't good, you also need to be careful about not gaining too much weight. Food for pregnant women is mainly the same as if you were not pregnant, but there are definitely some modifications you need to be making and there are some foods you absolutely should avoid. I'll talk about how much you should dry to consume, how much weight gain is normal and at the end of the video, I'll share what I think is THE superfood for your pregnancy.

I love curry but it gave me terrible heartburn in the third trimester. 3 weeks left and my baby is due so not much longer now 😀
Yaa keep eating all that dal and kids will be having vitamin B12 deficiency when they grow up and also no brain
I would love some of your recipes.

Im 8weeks pregnant with crazy morning sickness all day long 😭 just hoping and praying for a safe and healthy pregnancy for all of us❤️🙏🤰
Me too all day sickness
Literally I will eat what I want 😂 this is my second and realized I was so extra with the first , you can enjoy your food that you crave . Stop worrying. Worrying is worse for baby than any type of junk food.
I needed to hear it cos even to eat chocolate I’m scared. Cos this is my first 😩
Im exactly 5 weeks with my first! So excited and nervous for the 35 weeks ahead. I wish all of us a healthy pregnancy journey!
Me and my husband planned our pregnancy, just found out yesterday and I’m overjoyed 🥺 we had a miscarriage last year. FINALLY my rainbow baby is here ❤️ I’m very early, 4 weeks. I have been preparing, but now I need to know what to eat haha
Congratulations 💕

Congratulations!
I just found out I’m pregnant from the first cycle I had right after a miscarriage. This is going to be my first born baby when it’s born. 🥰
First time dad-to-be at 40 here, my wife and I have had to experience two miscarriages this last year, but by grace of God we've made it to 8 weeks and still looking good, so I want to do everything I can to keep my beautiful bride rested, well fed, and happy so we can welcome our little one together later this year!
Awwww. Congratulations to you guys. ❤
I am currently 8 weeks pregnant and thanking God for this channel. God bless you all mamas ❤️
I am in my first trimester and at about 7 weeks! I was slightly heartbroken to see that “eating for two” isn’t really a thing, because I’m hungry ALL the time now😂 thank you for the helpful video!
Hi there! I’m about 5 weeks in. I’ve been super hungry, too, but as long as you’re eating small meals, you can have healthy snacks in between meals when you get hungry! Almond butter on an apple slice with chia seeds on top is a really good snack! If you’re like me, you can also munch on sardines with lime, salt, and hot sauce! Very good for you and baby!
5 weeks pregnant with my rainbow baby, praying for a healthy pregnancy for myself and all the expecting mamas out there💖
Omg me too 🥺🥺 CONGRATULATIONS SWEETIE , i found out at the ER this past Saturday after a bad car accident
@@raviepretty thanks so much!! I’m so sorry about the car accident, I hope you and baby are doing well 🥹💖 congrats to you too!!
aww I'm so happy for you. I just had a miscarriage 5weeks ago, finding out at my 12week scan that my baby stopped growing at 9 weeks. 😢. I was heartbroken.ive had children previously and never experienced this.
I'm scared but wish to try again as I feel so depressed right now. when did you try again?
@@Ryoko007 so so sorry for your loss. I waited 4 months in between my loss and when I got pregnant again. I would speak to your dr just to confirm when would be safe for you but so far I’m now 17 weeks and baby is healthy. My baby I lost due date was two weeks ago which was hard to deal with and all the emotions you go through are valid 💖
Khichuri ( rice and lentils)
Put your lentils(100gms) in water for half an hour, then wash the rice(200gms) and those lentils.
Hot oil~fry chopped onions, chopped garlic, ginger paste, salt, green chilli~ after stir in a little bit ~ put those rice and lentils~ stir them well for a while~ put small amount of water to boil.
Now enjoy with an omelet.
Thank you 🙏💕
Definitely will do that. I’m about 7 weeks now
First trimester. I'm 7 weeks pregnant tomorrow.
We had been trying scine 2019 and kind of given up on getting pregnant. I was 9 days late when I decided to take a test. I was expecting it to be negative as that's all I've ever gotten. I was very shocked when it instantly turned positive.
OMG 🎊 congratulations I am 6 weeks, which means our babies will be a week or less apart.
@@ileene.b.anyona.888 congratulations to you too.
Congratulations!!! God bless you! I have an autoimmune disorder, and my doctor gave permition for pregnancy this year, and yesterday i found out that i am pregnant! It was such a surpise and joy.

@@LalaaCherry thank you. Unfortunately I just lost that pregnancy and had a D&C last Tuesday. Very devastated but taking time to heal, and try again!
@@courtneylauren3973 I'm so sorry to hear about you loss. I went through my first pregnancy and miscarriage back in August. I just found out I'm pregnant again and I'm about at 8 weeks. I'm just trying not to get my hopes up just in case because it is very sad. Please take care of yourself as I try and do the same :)
If you are RH negative then your doctor is supposed to give you a RhoGAM shot to prevent your immune system from attacking the baby if the baby is from an RH positive father
I’m in my second trimester ❤. First baby at 40
Being a French person, cooking lentils is one of my to go dinner when I'm lazy. First, you wash them throughly in cold water. Then you put it in a pot with clean cold water. The water should be a centimer above you lentils level. Make sure not to put to much lentils in the pot, it "swells" when cooked. Now put a whole (not chopped) onion in the pot and put 2 cloves in the onion. Add some laurel leaves (1 or two depending on the amount of lentils and to your taste). Cook on low heat until tender. Add sea salt at the end. If there's not enough water, add some and drain when cooked. You can eat it with smoked sausages or normal or vegan sausages. You can let it cool down and make a salad out of it adding tomatoes and cucumber for exemple. That's the easiest way to cook it. Otherwise, you can make a curry out of it, cooking it with coconut milk and curry paste. xx
Wow. That actually sounds really good
it's good and healthy. Takes a little bit of time to cook though (around 30/40 minutes). But it doesn't need much attention. Tell me if you ever try to cook and taste some !
@@DianaInThePink
Do you end up cutting up the onion and garlic after the lentils are cooked and add them?
I am in my first trimesters, 5 weeks. Praying for a healthy pregnancy
I’m in my first trimester. Praying for a healthy pregnancy.
I'm a first-time mama! 36 years old and almost 22 weeks. So far my pregnancy has been very smooth and hopefully will continue to be that way.
I'm currently in my first trimester with my second child. My first was horrible but I was young and didn't know much. I was sick all day up until EIGHT MONTHS it was crazy. I'm hoping to do better this time around and I feel like eating better is where to start
Thank you for your videos! I feel so overwhelmed trying to figure out what to eat, exercises, and preparing for birth. I'm a first time mom and officially 18 weeks today! Crazy how time flies!
I'm 26 weeks pregnant ftm and I find your videos so helpful. I've watched all the pregnancy week by week videos 😌
In my second trimester, trying to learn all I can!
Thanks so much Diana, I really appreciate this videos. They are of great help to women
First time mom here, I am in my 7 weeks, and I feel nervous what to do and what to eat because sometimes I am having food aversions. But I want to eat healthy for the baby. I always googled everytime I have food to eat 😊 Praying for a smooth, healthy and safe pregnancy journey 🥰🙏😇
I would love to have a book on recipes that are safe for the whole 9 months, or even more bc that would be wonderful!
Great practical information. Thank you!
This is amazing!!! Thank you so much for doing these videos! You are so informative, AND you make the videos fun to watch with your awesome personality! 🥰 Love it!
i just found out im positively pregnant just 2 days ago. way to go me. drank alcohol and ate sashimi during new years celebration, flew back from vacation with diarrhea and almost passing out at the airport, took sugary electrolyte to recover and did really pass out on the drive back home. now, having the big dilemma since ive never liked eating avocado since childhood 😂 ohh the joys of being pregnant.
Learning what i can! Thanks for the content!
This is the best video I’ve found on this. You’re very clear about this and go into detail about certain things I’ve been interested in. It’s been difficult to let go of certain foods but the fact that you stated pregnant women are 20x more likely to develop infections made me finally come to terms with letting them all go right now. I always like to know the why. Thanks ☺️
First trimester ❤️ can’t explain how excited and happy my partner and I are!! Love your videos Di, thank you so much🙏 wishing all the pregnant and trying mamas out there all the best❤️❤️❤️ God bless
I started out my pregnancy trying to eat healthy, but my morning sickness was triggered by fruit, even fruit flavoured things and drinks. I ended up in hospital with HG, unable to eat or drink anything, on an IV only for 10 days. Now I'm in my 3rd trimester and I still can't handle fruit, even though it tastes so nice to me.
Pregnant with my second! 8 weeks! This is a good video to watch! Very helpful. Thank you!
Am in the 2nd trimester. 15 weeks.
Thank you for the videos.
This was great information and entertaining 😝 I am 36 weeks pregnant (getting so excited 🥰🥰) and I have tried to be super mindful of making healthier food choices. I have always loved whole grains and veggies. We are big meat eaters too. I think a big one for me was eating more variety. I tend to just stick with foods I enjoy. I am trying to switch it up a little more with different vegetables/fruit etc.
During this pregnancy a staple "craving" or just a food I have wanted to consume every single day would be dairy & bananas. I have always had a little milk and cheese here and there. But after around 5 weeks pregnant I brought a high protien natural greek yoghurt to have every morning. And also just a regular supermarket block of cheese for snacks. And I am STILL eating at least 2 bananas a day 😳😅
Another "craving" that I have been experiencing since around 32 weeks is lots of healthy fats. I've been wanting to eat wayyy more avocado, tahini, walnuts and oily fish. Which I enjoy. Walnuts are my FAVOURITE at the moment. So I am just listening to my body and trying to make healthy food choices for myself & bubby based on what I currently feel like in that moment. Sometimes its hard not to eat half a tub of icecream! But thats when I stop myself (due to not wanting a sugar headache later on) and reach for some fruit and yoghurt or glass of milk!
Anyways omg I have rambled on 🙊😅 haha but thankyou again for such a great video! x
I’m about to go into my 5th week! When I found out last week first thing I did was buy cans of lentil soup, some Honey Nut Cheerios🤪, along with OJ and my prenatal vitamins
thankyou, im so excited im in the first trimester and im so excited to be a mum, its important that the baby is healthy and strong so this video is super helpful
This was very helpful! It’s easy in mind head to just say “eat healthy”! But I love knowing the why behind certain food recomendations.
First time mommy!!! 3 weeks pregnant super scared but vidoes like this make me even more confident💖
19 weeks pregnant with our second baby! 🥰
Lentils are so fabulous! When my husband and I went vegan for a hot minute they were a big thing that I used. 😆 Usually I just follow instructions on the back to cook them?
However I usually put them in soups or mixed with taco season as a base for taco anything instead of meat 🤷♀️
Lentil soup is amazing! You can make it with veggies, chicken, etc!
I'm 32 weeks pregnant and just found your channel today. I've have now been watching different videos from you channel all night. Thank you for all your informative videos.
Just entered my second trimester and my appetite is slowly coming back. This is so helpful.
Great work! Out of all the videos I've been looking through as I go through my first pregnancy, yours is the most informative and well-explained channel. Thank you!
Thank you so much😃
Your videos are an absolute god send, my midwife hasn't told me anything unless I explicitly ask about it so I'm not even sure what I'm meant to be researching. Your guidance is great and these are easy to remember and understand. Thankyou!
We are going to be trying to get pregnant and I found your videos that are helping me think about preparedness. thank you!
7 weeks pregnant. we had to terminate my first pregnancy at 22 weeks last year cuz of the complications to the baby. It was so traumatic. We are blessed to get pregnant again and this time hopefully everything turns out well. Keeping my fingers crossed 🤞
oh man we are 8 weeks and that's scary :( you always think you're in the clear once the heartbeat is in. I'm sorry and I'm worried for us now lol
@@hawks3109 don’t be worried, it’s not statistically likely.
@@hawks3109 don't you worry. I am sorry that my story scared you but it can also bring hope since I am pregnant again 😊.
Sake thing happened except ny babies died from malpractice. I'm pregnant again with some minor complications and huge fear from ptsd
@Nana ❤❤I am so sorry you lost your baby due to malpractice. That must have felt like you lost the ground beneath you. I can only imagine. I prat that everything goes well this time and there'll be a little one smiling in our arms soon 🤗❤❤❤
Yay for lentils! My favorite way to incorporate more lentils in my diet is to just add them in any time I'm making rice with a meal ...usually I will just switch half of the amount of rice I'm using for lentils or quinoa (I prefer lentils and rice with Mexican or Middle Eastern cuisine and quinoa with East Asian cuisine)
I also like adding lentils to soups
Nice. Thanks.
Thanks for the information as usual I appreciate it.
I am 10 weeks pregnant learning alot from your videos very educational I am on the right track thanks
I am on my third semester, 29 weeks. I had Vit D deficiency. I took vit D supplements every day. But I think one food source that helped me to recover from it is spinach. I have two meals of spinach weekly. Plus broccoli, green beans, chicken, pork, eggs, and salmon. For fruits, I consume one banana and apple daily. For milk, I opt to almond milk unsweetened.
She literally gave me more info than my doctor did-
Right? My doctor barely told me anything other than avoid alcohol and mercury rich fish 🤦🏻♀️
My Dr doesn't tell me anything and prescribes generic prenatal that don't even state what is in them 😒 WAY different from when I had a child 22 years ago. What's really going on?!
Unfortunately what she is saying is all wrong. Read Real Food for Pregnancy by Lily Nichols. She didn’t mention a single animal source for folate, how about eggs. Doesn’t mention that you should be taking a methyl-folate, not folic acid. If you have the MTHFR mutation, which you wouldn’t know without genetic testing, your body won’t be able to convert folic acid. Recommending processed grains like whole wheat. Not understanding the most up to date data on saturated fat and cholesterol. Wonder if she knows that even the AHA stopped using LDL as a marker for cardiovascular issues in 2013.
She also doesn't accurately know the amount of calories in 2 cups of skim milk, which is not close to 350, it's like half that
Hi, I am 25 weeks pregnant. Your videos are extremely helpful. Thank you 🙏 🌻
just got my first BFP after trying for 3 and a half years. Will be 5 weeks in a couple of days. This was super helpful as I embark on this new journey and try to stay as healthy as possible, thank you 💛💛
17 weeks pregnant as of today. I love avocados. I love them by themselves, in salad, in dip, just in general.
Hello! Thanks for the information, I am currently 33 weeks pregnant with my first!
As for lentils, I love making these dishes. They are so healthy and a good source of protein! Lentils in general are famous in the Middle East, it’s called “the meat of the poor” because it is high in protein and more affordable than most meat options!
****************
The brown colored lentils are boiled for 15ish minutes (until they are not hard and are eatable) then I drain them and and cook them again with rice (can use any rice you like) add the amount of water you would add to cook rice with salt and extra virgin olive oil(the more olive oil you use the better). For the topping you can make caramelized onion. For a side dish make a salad (cucumbers, tomatoes, parsley, all chopped small with fresh lemon juice and a pinch of salt).
*****************
As for red lentils, I love to make soup. I first wash and let them set for at least one hour (this makes them cool faster) I wash them multiple times. In a pan I add chopped onions with some extra virgin olive oil and fresh chopped garlic. Then add the washed lentils and stir together for about 10 minutes. Add water and some chicken broth spices, some coriander and salt). Cook until the lentils are almost dissolved. You can make it extra smooth by using a hand blender. Once cooked to your desire, add fresh lemon juice. You can have a side dish of white onion or green onion or pickles or bread or you can have all of them!
Sorry if my instructions are not clear or need more details!
Thank you so much for this video. I am currently pregnant with my first, I'm 17 weeks and all I want to eat is spicy foods.
I just found out that I'm 4 weeks pregnant after a myomectomy 1 years ago. We're excited that we're passed these fibroids 😊
Hello I love your vids! I'm 17 weeks and 3 days so my 2 trimester. My eating is just coming back. My morning sickness was 24/7 and my hole 1st trimester and a few weeks of my 2nd. This is my first pregnancy so I'm trying to learn everything I can. I took early childhood education in school and was a teacher's aid to months to 5 yr olds. So I know some things but I feel like I can never learn enough about our body n baby.
I’ve been craving hot spicy chips . I have been opting for healthy cheese puffs instead and only eating it once every two weeks as a snack . It’s hard not to give into cravings but making a healthy alternative helps .
I'm 4 months soon five months soon this is my first child thank you for your time to talk about this I didn't know thanks for making me
I’m in my first trimester! 5 weeks ❤❤❤❤ so excited
I’ll start off by saying that I am a new listener and I absolutely adore you Diana! I am 11 weeks pregnant with our first baby after trying for 7 years. We just had our fist ultrasound last week and baby is growing perfectly and heartbeat is strong😊 for the last four days I have had a debilitating headache so pretty much been laying in a dark room with a cool cloth for days. SO, I had my first cup of black coffee in the attempt of lightening this and it actually did help. I also took my bp at home which was normal. I of course called my OB after the weekend and they are closed for an office party so I will be calling again tomorrow but I was wondering if you cover this on your channel? If not, I would love to know your take or if anyone else has experienced anything like this? Thank you and your channel rocks!!
I’m around 14 weeks and have been getting headaches too maybe I’m just not drinking enough water
Currently 5 weeks 😍, we are super exited since is our first baby, thank you for all the info, such an amazing channel!!!!
Praying for a safe pregnancy for me and all pregnant women here!
I’m shy of 4 weeks 🤰🏻 I appreciate the information.
You're so right. It's hard to find information on what to eat during my pregNANACY.
I'm 21 weeks pregnant and it's my first pregnancy. Thank you so much, I've been learning a lot from your channel ❤️
It's so easy to cook lentils. Just saute with olive oil and chopped onion for few minutes, then add water, chicken, beef or vegetable broth. Let it cook until tender. Add salt, cumin power and any other seasoning you might like, but make sure to add the cumin because it help prevent bloating and gases. I add chopped chard and or chopped spinach to this soup for more nutrition and it actually complement the flavor. Some people add carrots and potatoes. It's up to you.
I sometimes saute fresh chopped garlic and chapped cilantro in olive oil and add it to this soup at the end.
To eat it, you can serve it with homemade bread/sumaq crotons.
I like my soup on the liquidy side, not too thick. So, for 1 cup of dried and washed lentils, I use about 5 cups of liquid. Some of that liquid evaporates during cooking. The amount of spinach and Chard can be determined by you based on your preference. Play with the ingredients to see which ones work for you.
Tip: in the middle east, we sometimes add fresh dough, pasta sheets like to this dish. You could also add any type of small pasta to it halfway during cooking, maybe after adding the spinach and or Chard.
I am so thankful to see this video. This is my seventh pregnancy, 4th baby. We are 12w1d along and everything is going so well, thank the Lord!
I love your account. You’re so real and informative and I laughed 😁
I'm 9 weeks along at the moment, been absolutely loving your week by week pregnancy videos and your general do's and don'ts! Thanks for the amazing content 😊
Happy for you mama!
Congratulations!!!
Just found out last night! 🤰🏻👶🏻💛
I’m so glad you have a whole week by week playlist! I love the way you explain things, can’t wait to watch!!! 🥰
Congrats 🎊 is this your first?
I also found out yesterday ❤
We are planning on trying this middle of the year!! We have about a 60% healthy diet and trying to change diet now to prepare!
I just found out I’m pregnant! My husband and I are super excited!!
Thank you for all the great content you put together for this community. I've been watching your channel since I found out about my 3rd pregnancy. Baby girl was born 6/13/22, 8lbs 3oz and 20in long. I was 40 weeks 5 days. We weren't sure if I'd be able to be at the Birth Center in our town, which was one of my biggest goals with this pregnancy. Labor just wasn't starting on it's own. However, my team of midwives decided based on my previous pregnancies, the health of this current baby and the fact that my water has never broken naturally, but once it has been broken I give birth quickly, they would let me have my water broken at the Birth Center with the understanding that if no progress was made in a couple hours they'd transfer me to the hospital. Within 3 hours I had my baby in my arms.
Wow, my very birth date 6/13.
Congratulations, you championed it!
I’m 10 weeks pregnant and this video helped a LOT!
I’m having twins and the nausea makes it hard to eat certain things, like water. I read about the small frequent sips but for some reason water triggers my nausea. Which is weird since normally I drink lots of water, but it seems that now that I need it the most I can’t keep it down.
I feel that.. 😕❤
Oh I LOVE lentils so I got so excited to hear you say they are rich in folate 😂 they’re so easy to cook - great in curry, soups; my fave way to cook them is to simply give them a wash, soak them whilst I prep my other ingredients, and then add them to whatever I’m making. 😍😍😍
I needed this video! Thank you
33 weeks with first child🥰 some days are blissful. And some are ROUGH! Heartburn and acid reflux are a pain! She’s very active and heavy lol but her little wiggles, punches and kicks makes my heart melt😍 Thanks for you videos they are very informative☺️
do they ever hurt? when they move around
@@jmiey mostly not, only gets a bit uncomfortable when baby squishes into your internal organs, like bladder/kidneys and stuff. But it's mostly uncomfortable, it's more amusing then anything watching your whole belly shift from one side to the other
Heartburn is a killer for me too, only real bad when I had spicy food though.
And sleep a lot I don't know what I need to do
I highly recommend trying Indian lentil soup called Dal. There are many variations to the recipe for different types of lentils. Sooooo flavorful and yummy!
I just found out I'm pregnant 2 days ago and my husband and I are super excited
