BabyPlus - taking care of fetal environment

Tuesday, June 30, 2009 by Cindy Wallander

While pregnant, we try to eat well and take care of the fetal environment nutritiously........but we also must take care of the fetal environment during critical times in early cognitive development.  You don’t have to "give up" all the foods you love when you’re pregnant -  you just need make sure that most of your choices are healthy ones.  Try to mix things up a bit - that way you will be getting your nutrients without getting bored with your choices.  I love fruits and vegetables, so this was not hard for me! Good prenatal care is essential in the short term and the long term. 

Take advantage of the abundance of fruit and vegetable at the farmer's market or grocery aisles to add a fresh, seasonal variety to your menu!

Remember - everything you do now - while pregnant - will impact your child for a lifetime!
