Nuts, seeds and avocados contain healthy fats.  \nNon-starchy vegetables  \nAim for at least 30 minutes of walking or another physical activity each day.  \nChoose a variety of whole fruits. Limit juice and dried fruits.  \nFruit is great for snacksand dessert, too.  \nProtein   \nChoose 2 to 3 servings of nonfat or 1% milk or yogurt (cow, soy or almond). A serving is 8 oz. Choose yogurt with less than 15 g of sugar per serving.  \nDrink mainly water, decaf tea or decaf coffee and avoid sugary beverages.  \nChoose protein sources such as poultry, beans, nuts, low-mercury seafood, eggs, tofu or low-fat cheese. Limit red meat and avoid cold cuts and other processed meats.  \nstarchy vegetables  \nChoose whole grains, such as whole wheat bread or pasta, brown rice, quinoa or oats and other healthy starches like beans, lentils, sweet potatoes or acorn squash. Limit white bread, white rice and fried potatoes.  \nHealthy snack ideas  \nWhen you are pregnant, you need about 300 extra calories each day starting in the second trimester. This is not really that much. It equals one large snack or two smaller snacks a day.  \n LARG E S NAC K   \n1 slice whole wheat bread  \n1 Tbsp peanut butter  \n1 medium apple  \nAND  \n6 oz. low-fat yogurt  \nT W O S MAL L S NAC K S  \nWhat about sweets?  \nYou may be wondering whether there is room for cookies, candy, ice cream or other sweets in your pregnancy diet. You can eat sweets, but not every day. The goal is to use My Pregnancy Plate as your guide for healthy eating, be physically active and satisfy your sweet tooth with an occasional treat. This balance will help you achieve the recommended weight gain below.  \n\n| Recommended weight gain during pregnancy based on pre-pregnancy weight |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Pre-pregnancy weight | Recommended weight gain | Recommended rate\u003Cbr>of weight gain after\u003Cbr>first trimester |\n| Underweight\u003Cbr>(BMI \u003C18 .9 kg/m2) | 28–40 lbs | 5.0 lbs/month |\n| Normal weight\u003Cbr>(BMI: 18.9-24.9 kg/m2) | 25–35 lbs | 4.0 lbs/month |\n| Overweight\u003Cbr>(BMI: 25-29.9 kg/m2) | 15–25 lbs | 2.6 lbs/month |\n| Obese\u003Cbr>(BMI > 30 kg/m2) | 11–20 lbs | 2.0 lbs/month |\n\nFood safety  \nHere are some tips for safe food handling:  \n• Wash your hands before preparing food and eating.  \n• Wash fresh produce thoroughly before eating.  \n• Cook food thoroughly, especially eggs and foods made with eggs, meat, poultry and seafood.  \nAvoid the following:  \n• Raw fish, especially shellfish and sushi  \n• Unpasteurized milk, juice and soft cheeses such as feta, bleu cheese, brie and queso blanco. Soft cheeses made from pasteurized milk are fine.  \n• Raw sprouts  \n• Herbal supplements and herbal teas, until you check with your provider  \n• Swordfish, tilefish, king mackerel and shark, due to high mercury content Do include a source of DHA. This is a type of fat called “omega-3” that is very important for your baby’s healthy brain and eye development. Omega-3 fat is especially important from 20 weeks of pregnancy until you are done breastfeeding. Experts recommend that pregnant and nursing women get 300 mg of DHA every day.  \nThe best sources of DHA are wild albacore tuna (make sure it says “troll-caught”) and wild salmon. These types of fish are safe for pregnant women. If you don’teat fish, you can get DHA by taking fish oil capsules. Take enough to get 300 mg of DHA each day. If you don’t eat animal products, you can take DHA capsules made from algae.  \n[www.ohsuwomenshealth. com/nutrition](www.ohsuwomenshealth. com/nutrition) ©2015 Oregon Health & Science University CWH 3051517 10/15","cbCaimLiMP1hVYty","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimLiMP1hVYty","pdf",1886759,"English","# Healthy food portions\n## Non-starchy vegetables\n## Fruits and healthy snacks\n## Protein and healthy oils\n## Starchy vegetables and whole grains\n# Weight gain guidance\n# Food safety and DHA intake","[{\"question\":\"What does My Pregnancy Plate recommend focusing on during pregnancy?\",\"answer\":\"It emphasizes large portions of non-starchy vegetables, small amounts of healthy oils, a variety of whole fruits, suitable proteins, and healthy starches like whole grains and legumes.
