Your pregnant body
It's time to make sure you're eating as healthily as possible. The best way is to have a well-rounded diet, making sure you include foods from each of these food types every day: fruits and vegetables, carbohydrates, dairy products and protein.
Also, don't worry too much if you drank some alcohol before you knew you were pregnant. So many of us have been there. The main thing is to keep up a healthy lifestyle going forwards, and Department of Health advice is now to avoid alcohol altogether during pregnancy. If you're really worried, though, talk to your GP. Don't fret on your own.
Also be prepared for typical signs of early pregnancy, such as sensitive breasts, tiredness, light headedness and occasionally, a metallic taste in the mouth. Every woman will experience different symptoms, so don’t worry if you don’t have these symptoms.
