Gunnall D*, Kidger J

Pregnancy is a critical period that demands special attention to ensure optimal maternal and fetal health. Proper nutrition during pregnancy plays a crucial role in supporting the physiological changes in the expectant mother's body and promoting healthy fetal growth and development. This comprehensive review article aims to explore the significance of nutrition in pregnancy, discussing the key nutrients required, dietary recommendations, challenges faced by pregnant women, and the impact of maternal nutrition on fetal development. We also discuss interventions and strategies to improve maternal nutrition and provide insights into postpartum nutrition and lactation.
